''Salmon Run'' is a 1982 computer game for the Atari 8-bit series created by Bill Williams and distributed via the Atari Program Exchange. ''Salmon Run'' was Williams' first game, followed by a string of successes noted for their oddball concepts. The player takes the role of Sam the Salmon, as he attempts to swim upriver to mate. Along the way he encounters waterfalls, a bear, fishermen and seagulls, all attempting to eat him. If he survives to the spawning grounds, he is met and kissed by his mate. ==Gameplay== In basic gameplay terms, ''Salmon Run'' is similar to contemporary bird's-eye view racing games like ''Bump 'n' Jump''. The player's character is movable within a fixed area near the centre of the screen while the scenery scrolls down from the top of the screen, simulating travel towards the top of a large map. As the map scrolls, the player moves primarily side-to-side to avoid obstacles. Each player starts with one life and gains another for each successful round. Hitting the rocks or bank of the river drains Sam's life slightly. Along the way there are a series of rapids which will stop Sam's motion upriver until he jumps them by pressing the fire button. After landing, Sam dips underwater, and can stay there by holding down the button. More dangerous are the bears, fishermen and seagulls that will kill Sam instantly if caught, but can be avoided by careful swimming or hiding underwater. On reaching the end of the map, Sam meets and kisses his mate, and the round starts over with a new map and more enemies. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Salmon Run (video game)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
