Skull & Crossbones is a 1987 Pirate-themed Beat 'em Up arcade game developed by Atari.In the The Golden Age of Piracy, two of the most feared pirates terrorizing the seas, One-Eye (player one) and Red Dog (player two), have completed their raiding of a Spanish fortress. Leaving with their booty, they're unexpectedly attacked by an enemy ship full of rival pirates, led by a powerful wizard who whisks away their loot. Defeating the enemy pirates, One-Eye and Red Dog (and their annoying parrot sidekick who's coming along for the ride) must track down and defeat the wizard and his minions - whose ranks somehow include ninjas and Medusa herself - across multiple levels. The game received pelts to various computers of the time, as well as a NES port that is one of the few games released in stores that didn’t have Nintendo’s seal of approval. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Skull & Crossbones (Video Game) / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: Some of the ports of the game downplayed the treasure stealing in favor of saving captured women. The NES version of the game especially centers around saving a princess with treasure hunting being an afterthought. | |

Defeat Equals Explosion | |
| Skull & Crossbones (Video Game) / int_471fdb9e | comment |
Defeat Equals Explosion: Enemies which really have no reasons for exploding, like pirate mooks, conquistadores, skeletons, will all explode in a harmless "POP" after they're killed. Most likely because of graphic limitation | |

Pirate Parrot: Your parrot companion will fly around you during levels, staying well out of range from enemy attacks while telling you "Let's move! Let's move! Squawrk!" if you took too long to finish an area. | |

Grievous Bottley Harm: Occasionally, you'll be assaulted by pirate enemies who hurls empty bottles at a distance. Getting hit by those bottles result in as much health loss as being hit by a sword. | |

Player Versus Player | |
| Skull & Crossbones (Video Game) / int_70e34c75 | comment |
Player Versus Player: On two-player mode, at the end of each stage, the players can duel each other for claiming a larger share of the booty. They don't kill each other, but the winning player gets a higher score at the end of the level. | |

Pirate Booty | |
| Skull & Crossbones (Video Game) / int_864009e9 | comment |
Pirate Booty: There are areas in-game marked with crosses, where treasure and booty is buried. After clearing an area of enemies, you can stand on the cross and press the "attack" button to dig up those treasure, gaining yourself a higher score in the process, but be warned that you'll need to stay on the spot even as more enemies comes at you. | |

Gratuitous Ninja | |
| Skull & Crossbones (Video Game) / int_a6441fa | comment |
Gratuitous Ninja: For most of the game, you're battling pirates and undead in an otherwise European setting. Except for the third stage, which have you raiding a ninja castle (at no point did your character take a detour halfway across the world to Japan), somehow, and you then spend one whole level facing enemy ninjas. | |

Medusa | |
| Skull & Crossbones (Video Game) / int_a998ce5c | comment |
Medusa: Medusa herself (she's even named as such by the game) is the boss of the caves level after you dock on a beach full of skeletons. She's seen behind a cauldron in her quarters, full of her skeleton mooks, and after defeating her skeletons she then fights you. | |

Anti-Hero | |
| Skull & Crossbones (Video Game) / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero: Goes without saying given that you're assuming the role of a pirate. The first stage have you raiding a Spanish castle, killing the conquistadores around it, and making off with its loot. You are still far more noble than most of the folk you are robbing which include actually bad pirates, an evil wizard, and Medusa herself. | |

Dem Bones: Skeletons will emerge from underneath the sands in one level as you dock on a beach. And as you advance further into the coastline you'll be assailed by green skeletons, more durable versions of the common white ones. | |
