Blasto was great, one of the early ones if i remember?

Another great game (for me) was Tombstone City ... I had that game with my TI in 1986 .... I never actually knew HOW to play it though, and it wasn't until actually about 4 years ago I found out.

Literally blast them next to any pair of Cacti and then you can let them chase you to another pair. I can now make it to day 5. At 45 years old. When I was 10 I didn't have a bloody clue.

I'm making games for the TI at the moment. Done a few over the years. I'm known as Retrospect , on AtariAge.

AtariAge has lost a lot of credibility with the intellivision amico drama...
