About the game
Dating from 1983, Vortex Raider for C64 is preserved in the VG90 archive as a catalogue entry — a factual marker of a release that belonged to the early cartridge-and-arcade boom.
By 1983 the landscape around releases like this was set — the arcade was king and the first home consoles were racing to catch up. Reading Vortex Raider against that backdrop is part of what makes browsing an archive by year worthwhile.
