Item Description

Roland Emmerich's 1994 film Stargate sent Kurt Russell and James Spader through an ancient ring to a desert world ruled by a sun god, and in 1995 Acclaim brought that trip to the Super Nintendo. As Colonel Jack O'Neil, you step through the gate onto Abydos and take the fight to Ra, the alien tyrant posing as a deity, and the guards who enforce his rule.

It plays as a side-scrolling action game with more on its mind than running and shooting. Missions take you across the Abydos deserts, into the village of Nagada and the catacombs beyond it, and finally aboard Ra's hidden spaceship, and most of them are about finding something rather than reaching the right-hand edge of the screen: supplies, the bomb the team brought through the gate, a set of Egyptian hieroglyphs and, later, Daniel Jackson and Sha'uri. O'Neil carries a machine gun with unlimited ammunition that pickups can temporarily power up, plus a deep stock of grenades and more powerful alien grenades for when the enemies crowd in. A couple of missions break things up by putting you in a glider for aerial dogfights, and boss encounters punctuate the journey.

The art direction leans into the film's look, with sandy palettes and towering Egyptian-inspired architecture. Critics of the day were tough on the controls, but the search-and-rescue structure gives it a slower, more deliberate pace than a pure run-and-gun, which suits the film's sense of exploring a strange world one dune at a time.

Stargate went on to become a long-running television franchise, which makes this cartridge a neat piece of the story's beginnings: the original film's adventure, adapted for the console that was dominating living rooms when it hit theaters. For a shelf of nineties sci-fi tie-ins, it is the movie in cartridge form, gliders, hieroglyphs and all.
