Fly your helicopter into battle to rescue wounded soldiers as you evade gunfire from an enemy tank. After the rescue, perform surgery and remove shrapnel from patients in a race against time.
Triton Catalog - Spring 1984
The beloved TV show becomes one of TI's most popular games. As Hawkeye, you airlift wounded soldiers from the battlefield to the 4077. If you survive firing tanks and your opponent, you've still got only 30 seconds in the Operating Room to remove deadly shrapnel. (Speech Synthesizer and Wired Remote Controllers recommended.)
Gameplay
The player plays the game as the television character and army surgical doctor Hawkeye Pierce during the Korean war (1950-1953). M*A*S*H is a two-stage game. Hawkeye first starts out in the field rescuing wounded soldiers on the battlefield and getting them on his helicopter to return them to the M*A*S*H 4077 army surgical hospital for surgery. He must do so without getting hit by gunfire from enemy tanks.
The second phase of the game involves Hawkeye Pierce performing surgery to remove shrapnel from these wounded soldiers. This section of the game is similar to the classic board game "Operation" where the foreign objects must be removed without touching the edges of the open wound.
