Details in MONSTER BASH

This is a game of “Monster Bash,” created in 1982 by a video game programmer Steve Hanawa. You, as a protagonist named “Little Red” is set out to beat the ultimate monsters and his head creatures in 3 different creepy environments on each level. This all may seem daunting at first, but a feature that might help you is the lighting of candles, which enable you to use a special sword to kill Dracula, Frankenstein and then the 'Chameleon Man.' Specifically, The levels are as follows:

1. Dracula’s House: You play "Little Red" who chases Dracula through his five-story house trying to light the candles to energize the sword.
2. Frankenstein's Castle: Avoid the wolfmen by zapping them and then escape through a warp door.
3. Chameleon Man's Graveyard: Avoid spiders and Chameleon Man by activating a background color change button.

Before you are hyped up to play it, listen to my very first suggestion - get a Firefox web runner to play this game. That being said, the game is for streaming only where the data is being continuously sent to your computer and your computer displays earlier parts while subsequent parts are being received - so you cannot download the game rather play it with high speed cellular.

Also, to ensure the functionality and aesthetics of the game, the speed of the internet web runner has to be the fastest for very particular condition. Imagine your hero, for a moment, has to run down to a tunnel to hide from the monster coming at your way; you do not want your runner to seize up and stop in the middle of your run-away. Therefore, you want a  browser who can load fastest on launch and more responsive in every day use - the Mozilla Firefox is an option.

The emulated game now preserved by an American archivist Jason Scott was made and uploaded in 2014 Sept. 16, is available at https://archive.org/details/arcade_monsterb. Now it’s time to play it - simply hit the button on the game page “Insert Coin” and hit “player 1”, enjoy the horror and thrill. How it is presented is vintage, as well - the game is illustrated in mainly black, red, yellow and blue pixels.

The game received huge crowd of favour and love and two of the attached pictures are two biggest promotions it had for its birth anniversary on respective magazine articles and its first commercial promo video released 1982.
