Trying to remember an old LED game.

    Hi Folks

    just watched this video on old 70s handheld games (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vvPnTfs8wY) and it reminded me of one I had as a kid. Can't remember the name of it but I'm hoping someone here will.

    It was large and rectangular and I think green and black. Two players sat facing each other with a joystick and two (I think) buttons. You chased each other around a maze and by pressing one of the buttons you could drop mines to get the other player.

    Would be very grateful if anyone can think of it or if anyone knows of a website that details 70s/80s handheld games.

    Thanks.

    I can picture the game your talking about but don't know the name.
    Sounds like an MB game.
    Google mb electronic games and see if anything rings a bell.
