Word Zapper , released in 1982, is an action-packed adventure game where your goal is to zap three words in 99 seconds. The current word will appear at the bottom of the screen, and you must recreate it by controlling your spaceship and zapping letters in the correct order as they scroll up from the top of the screen.
The gameplay becomes increasingly challenging with the appearance of asteroids that fly horizontally across the screen. Some asteroids will deduct time, while others will destroy your ship, ending the game. Fortunately, your spaceship is equipped with lasers that can be used to destroy asteroids and protect yourself.
