| This is one of three X-rated games to be released by Mystique. Although these may seem tame by today's standards, at the time of their release they caused quite a controversy. Inside the oversized outer box was a fake leather case that housed your cart and manual. It even has a little lock and key.Designed by Joel H. Martin. Description: "Custer's Revenge" is especially notorious, as the rape of an American Indian woman is the central theme of the game. Predictably, feminist groups and native Americans protested loudly. The slogan on the game says "When you score, you score!". An interesting idea (adult videogames) gone awry. Adapted later into PlayAround's "Westward Ho". Mystique was a division of American Multiple Industries and based in Northridge, CA. The carts themselves were made in Hong Kong. At the Mystique booth at CES in 1982, business cards were given out with the name of Joel H. Martin, who worked for a company called Mindspring that was based in Hong Kong. According to the company rep, he was the programmer of their early X-rated games. Released: 1982. ©1982 Mystique/AMI. (USA) Part Number: 1001. Landmarks: Mystique games use a checksum routine to determine if a rom's contents have been altered (if so, the program goes into an endless loop). From the Digital Press "Classic" Guide.
