Taz

Taz (Asterix in the European version) is an 1983 action video game released by Atari for the Atari 2600. It features the Tasmanian Devil for the Merrie Melodies and Looney Tunes series of cartoons in the mid-1950s and 1960s in the North American version, but the European version features Asterix, the main character in the French comic book series of the same name. The only difference between the two versions is the title screen, which features Asterix or Taz, depending on the version, and the title of the game. No changes in gameplay were made between the two releases.
== Gameplay ==
The objective of the game is to eat all the food but avoid the dynamite. Taz/Asterix is signified by a dust cloud that can move freely across the array of conveyor belts and catch the food by making contact. Different types of food result in a different amount of points. Contact with dynamite results in an explosion and a life being lost and the game ends when all three lives are lost.
