Minis Madness is a side scrolling platform game.

The M&Ms candy factory has been overrun with those pesky M&M Minis in the first console game featuring Mars Inc.'s famous chocolate treats.

WWIII. You command the Abrams Battle Tank, 63 tons of mechanized fury and a highly-trained crew of four. Your bearing: 197. The recon map indicates an enemy base straight ahead, with hills rising steeply on either side. It's time to move out - zero hour in a 3-D world.

The Abraams Tank carries HEAT, AX and armor-piercing SABOT rounds for the 120mm cannon, plus a 7.62mm COAX machine gun. Easing around the hill, you scan the horizon. A column of Soviet T-62s at 2500 meters - just within range. Choose your ammo, load, and lonck-on. FIRE!

Overhead war strategy game.

The game is similar to Bio F.R.E.A.K.S. and Mortal Kombat.

Like in Mortal Kombat, when a character wins both rounds, they can perform an execution move on the enemy. Methods included severing an opponents limbs and torso (Al Rashid), beheading (The Executioner), repeated stabbing (Koyasha), impaling the opponent with a sword (Lord Deimos), breaking an opponent's back by hoisting them on top of a Viking helmet and throwing them to the ground, causing their body to explode (Ragnar), and some more far-fetched methods including pulling out an opponent's heart (Xiao Long), shrinking (Namira), transforming the opponent into a chicken (Taria), and entering an opponent's body and bursting them from inside (Dregan).

Mad Alien is kind of a combination of a shooter and a driving game. You drive a car equipped with a gun on a road. The landscape around you shows different settings (cities, country side, tunnels) and scrolls by from the top to the bottom of the screen. Your enemies (mad aliens) drive in front of you in a "Galaxian"-like formation and you have to shoot them. Watch out for mad aliens leaving the group and turning back to attack your car.

You must collect the bombs dropped from the top of the screen. As you progress the bombs drop faster and in more difficult patterns.

Releases in December 1984. This is the first 3-D isometric game from SNK.

In Mad Planets, the player takes control of a spaceship and must attempt to destroy a series of Earth-like planets which emerge from the center of the screen and rapidly move towards the player's ship - increasing in size as they do so. Destroying all of the planets in a round before the they reach their full scale will see the player awarded with bonus points. Fully-grown planets are orbited by a number of small moons, which, if destroyed, cause the planet to go 'mad' - turning red and making a beeline for the player's ship. The game also includes bonus rounds in which stranded astronauts can be rescued for additional points.
