Descpription:
NARC is a 1988 arcade game designed by Eugene Jarvis for Williams
Electronics programed by George Petro. It was one of the first ultra-violent
video games and a frequent target of parental criticism of the arcade game industry.
The object is to arrest and kill drug offenders, confiscate their money and
drugs, and defeat "Mr. Big". The player controls either Max Force or Hit Man,
who are hunting down junkies, drug dealers and organized crime kingpins.
Max and Hit are equipped with an automatic weapon and missile launcher.
When an enemy is dispatched using the latter, they explode in a torrent of
scorched and bloody body appendages. Some enemies can be arrested after they
surrender and then float away with "BUSTED" over them, this is then added to
your tally at the end of the level along with drugs and money confiscated
from other enemies that they dropped when killed (the game actually awards more
points at the end of a round for arresting enemies without killing them).
The game's objective is to reach and destroy various drug dealing ringleaders.
