A tie-in to the 1985 film Gotcha! handed to LJN, this Zapper paintball game belongs to the publisher's wave of movie licences, often derided yet sought after when complete. The US version's value rests on its modest run for a minor Zapper title and on its now forgotten, obscure licence rather than the game itself. Four Score support links it to the late-decade multiplayer catalogue.
