Suicide Mission

About

Suicide Mission by Arcadia Corporation is a 1982 Atari 2600 shooter where you pilot a tiny submarine through a human bloodstream. Your target is a virus infecting cells, which you destroy by firing torpedoes. Each hit shatters infected cells into smaller fragments that must be eliminated before progressing. The game cycles through increasingly tough stages, with players choosing between single shots or rapid-fire mode. It plays like a pixelated science experiment gone rogue. The game’s standout features include its trippy concept and two distinct weapon modes that change pacing. With three difficulty levels and no modern polish, it leans into retro simplicity. Released on New Year’s Eve 1982, it’s a relic of early arcade-style design that still delivers a brisk, no-frills challenge. The multiplayer option adds a rare edge for Atari 2600 shooters but requires splitting a controller.
