About the game

Bombs Away is a video game released in 1976 for Arcade. VG90 lists it as a reference record so the title stays discoverable alongside the thousands of other releases that defined the first wave of arcade and home gaming.

By 1976 the landscape around releases like this was set — cabinets and the earliest home systems were still teaching players what a video game could be. Reading Bombs Away against that backdrop is part of what makes browsing an archive by year worthwhile.
