Yep. As pong mentioned, some of these would have been 'out in the wild' and rarely seen but by a lucky few folks that were in arcades when these games were field tested. I have seen and played various Allied Leisure games back in the 1970s, but this was one of those that I am certain I never saw at places I went to. If Allied Leisure's game designer Jack Pearson were still around, this would have been one of those games worth asking Jack about what was the situation regarding Allied Leisure's Zap and Hesitation being the other.

Jack Pearson was interviewed by GameRoom magazine's author Keith Smith back in 2001 or maybe it was 2002. Keith also has published a book and has Golden Age Historian web site that talks about coinop games. Keith used to post in this forum in the past.

By coincidence, someone from Australia that also posts here on the forum has been trying to find a couple of arcade games that he had played, but that no one has been able to help him name what the games are and he has been searching for probably close to 20 years. He has asked about the games on Australian forums, but no luck yet. The two games he is trying to recall also may have been field tested prototypes. He has searched extensively including searching web sites that host flyers such as TAFA and Flyer Fever, but no luck yet.
