Known for 80s arcade hits like Defender and Robotron: 2084, Williams also released a few odd titles that didn't generate quite so much buzz, and Inferno definitely falls into the latter category. Sort of a mashup of Crystal Castles and Robotron but with dual joysticks that only move diagonally, and a strangely creepy vibe, the game sends one or two heroes into a series of maze-like caverns to battle cyclopes, tanks, nymphs and "boom boom birds" sent by the Grand Lizard. The mazes have multiple height levels and their narrow corridors can be a challenge to navigate without properly configured controls (ideally you need a flight stick and another joystick, but you can make it work with two normal sticks and a nearby button). If you're looking for a weird 80s game you may not have played that's unmistakably Williams, delve into the depths of Inferno.
