Guillotine

Guillotine is a 1-player arcade game for the Atari 400/800.

The object of the game is to prevent an execution from taking place. The player attempts to reach the executioner, but must also catch bombs falling from the sky to prevent them hitting the ground. The game starts with a countdown of 99, but gains 20 seconds every time the player reaches the executioner. It's game over if a bomb hits the ground or time reaches 0.
