Arguably the love child of Qix and Arkanoid, Volfied takes the core gameplay concept of the former and adds a storyline, visual style and power-ups reminiscent of the latter. Travelling back to his home planet of Volfied, the pilot of the spaceship Monotros discovers the planet has been overrun with an alien presence, which he must push back by literally carving it out of the surface. Much like in Qix, the player must venture from the safe edges of the screen to reclaim sections of the playfield, while a menacing alien and its minions roam around and cause trouble. Enclosing power-ups on various parts of the surface grant you special abilities, such as equipping lasers, stopping time and speeding up your ship. Each level features a different alien type, minions, power-ups and level design, adding new life to an early 80s game concept. This overlay features new bezel art in the spirit of the original cabinet.
