Article topic lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. ( ?) It had no meaningful hits in a video game reliable sources custom Google search. There are no worthwhile redirect targets. czar 14:00, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete as a non-notable video game failing WP:GNG with no reliable independent in-depth sources, such as WP:VG/RS. No meaningful hits in custom RS search. No entries for content in game listings (like MobyGames) or review aggregates (like Metacritic). No hits in contemporary video game magazines. — HELLKNOWZ ▎ TALK 16:59, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of Commodore 64 games (A–M) or delete. If Lemon64 says it exists, then I trust them. However, there doesn't seem to be any documentation about this anywhere online. If someone can locate offline coverage, the article can be recreated. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 18:34, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
- Comment - Do remember that likely any coverage of the topic when it came out was in non-digital print media, possibly deflating the notability of the game. Insert CleverPhrase Here 03:04, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
- There would normally be some indication of this in forums and at least a trace of some coverage in the MobyGames entry's section on criticism

- This is fair enough. as it is I think I agree with the other editors here. There isn't any evidence of notability. Delete. Insert CleverPhrase Here 23:15, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete at best for now as this could simply redirect but this is still questionable overall for improvements and notability. SwisterTwister talk 22:19, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete due to lack of notable sources. I'm all for recreating the article if sources are found (I cannot find any myself). ZettaComposer ( talk) 12:58, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
