About Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em

Beat 'Em and Eat 'Em is a pornographic video game for the Atari 2600 by Mystique in 1982. Distribution was handled by American Multiple Industries until distribution changed to Game Source. Players control two nude women; the goal is to catch sperm falling from a masturbating man on a rooftop without missing. Its gameplay has been compared to the Atari game Kaboom!. There is also gender-reversed version of the game titled Philly Flasher that features identical gameplay. Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em has received negative reception since its release and is an oft-cited example of pornographic Atari 2600 games. Players control two nude women on the street who must catch semen in their mouths that comes from a masturbating man on a rooftop without missing. This can be accomplished merely by touching the women's bodies on the sperm before it hits the ground. A more difficult setting requires players catch the sperm before it goes past the women's shoulders. If any sperm hits the ground, the first turn is over. Players are allowed to miss four times before the game is over. They can gain a turn every 69 points scored (up to two extra turns). Players move both women using the controller's paddle and the game allows each player to control one woman. The game plays similarly to the Atari game Kaboom!.

Atari 2600 prices, all games & how to spot a fake

An adult Kaboom!-style paddle game, collected for notoriety rather than play.

American Multiple Industries published Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em under its Mystique label in November 1982, with JHM Ltd. as developer. It plays like Atari's Kaboom!: you move two nude women with a paddle controller to catch what falls from a man on a rooftop. It has been reviewed negatively since release and is often cited as an example of pornographic 2600 games.

After the Mystique line passed to GameSource, it was sold under the PlayAround name. A gender-reversed version, Philly Flasher, appeared on a double-ended cartridge with Cathouse Blues, and Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em was also paired with Lady in Wading.

How it was made

Worth knowing

$49.95 at launch. Arcade Express reported in October 1982: "Some of the titles retailing for $49.95 are "Bachelor Party", "Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em" and "Custer's Revenge"". It added that "the packaging has been subdued in order to make them more suitable for mass retailing."

Before you buy

Medium risk. No fakes are documented. Check which release you are looking at: the original Mystique cartridge or a PlayAround double-ender, which carries two games on one cart. Make sure the listing photos show the label it names. You need paddle controllers to play.
