King Kong is a reasonably simple game. All you have to do is to use your helicopter to rescue the two girls perched on the side of the building, land them on the ground, and kill King Kong. When you have done that, you progress to the next attempt. You kill King Kong by hitting him 40 times with your machine guns. If you kill Kong before having rescued both girls from the building, the game ends. The game also ends if you crash into one of the girls. You lose a life if you are hit by one of the rocks which Kong throws down from his perch. You lose another if you crash into the skyscraper. To pick up one of the girls you simply position the helicopter just above her head. The BBC Micro will beep when you have done this. You land the girls by moving your helicopter to the screen bottom. Written by Chris Roberts and published in BBC Micro User April 1983.
