About the Game

Originally released in 1989, Electrocop for the Atari Lynx handheld console saw players take on the role of a high-tech cop tasked with rescuing the President's daughter, who was kidnapped by an evil robot, before she is killed. Now, relive those days in this remastered emulated version.

The Criminal Brain has kidnapped the President's daughter and threatens to kill her if he does not get control of the world. Only you, Electrocop, can invade the Steel Complex where evil robots and dangerous traps protect the Criminal Brain.

The odds are against you. Your only hope is to find the weapons and computer terminals hidden in the mazes of the Criminal Brain's fortress

Can you save the President's daughter and serve justice to the world's most wicked criminal? It's your sworn duty as an officer of the law.


This enhanced version introduces a number of modern features to this retro classic, including:

  • Saving/loading the game at any point
  • Support for most modern game controllers
  • Full control remapping
