Allemand Elk Attack ist ein Pac-Man-ähnliches Spiel, jedoch ohne Labyrinth. Sie steuern eine Yo-Yo-Maschine, die mit ihrer Kette alle farbigen Blöcke auf dem Bildschirm verriegeln und zerstören muss. Unterwegs triffst du auf seltsame wurmartige Kreaturen, die versuchen, dein Yo-Yo zu stören.

Anglais With a name like Elk Attack you'd probably expect a game involving herds of deadly rampaging elk right? Well I hate disappoint you but there aren't herds of rampaging elk in this game, in fact this game has nothing to do with elks at all! Elk Attack is really a port of the obscure Taito arcade game Electric Yo-Yo! Programmer Mark Hahn named the game Elk Attack as a joke, and probably would have changed the name had it been published.

Silly name aside, Elk Attack is really a Pac-Man type game but without a maze. You control a Yo-Yo type machine, which must use its string to latch onto and destroy all the colored blocks on the screen. Along the way you'll encounter strange worm like creatures (sorry no elks), which will attempt to disrupt your Yo-Yo. To help you fight the worms there are power squares scattered around the board which when grabbed will render your Yo-Yo temporarily invincible and increase your speed. However unlike Pac-Man touching a worm while invincible will only net you points, and will not destroy of them. Because of this its best to just go about your business and clear the maze instead of hunting down the worms.

Since you use your string as your main means of propulsion, you must be careful as the screen becomes more and more open. For once you latch onto a block you can't let go until you touch it. The most common way of dying is to accidentally latch onto a block on the other side of the screen and be sucked into a waiting enemy. Clearing the board in a set pattern is the best way to avoid leaving large (and potentially dangerous) gaps between blocks.

Français Elk Attack est un jeu de type Pac-Man mais sans labyrinthe. Vous contrôlez une machine de type Yo-Yo, qui doit utiliser sa chaîne pour verrouiller et détruire tous les blocs colorés de l'écran. En chemin, vous rencontrerez d'étranges créatures ressemblant à des vers, qui tenteront de perturber votre Yo-Yo.
