Custer's Revenge/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Fetish Retardant: Who the hell got off from this game?
  • Misblamed: Feminist and Native American groups protested Atari instead of American Multiple Industries. Atari had nothing to do with the game, and wouldn't have allowed it anyway. At the time, console game manufacturers didn't require licensing and the 2600 had no Copy Protection mechanism. Also, the concept of third-party games was new during those days; video games for a particular platform were typically developed internally by the manufacturer, but it so happened that a number of Atari programmers called it quits - they weren't given enough recognition for their works. The programmers thus formed Activision, sparking a surge in third-parties wanting to cash in on the Atari craze - AMI included.
  • No Such Thing as Bad Publicity: It sure didn't save AMI from bankruptcy. though.
  • Overshadowed by Controversy: Developing and publishing a pornographic video game about a historical United States general raping Native Americans would obviously give everyone a shock.
  • Unfortunate Implications: To make matters worse, the game was also marketed under the title Westward Ho.
  • What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: Back when everyone thought of gamers as strictly being teenagers in arcades, the fact that such a game existed was a scandal to say the least.
