This is a remake of Robotron: 2084, an arcade game where you were left alone, amid a swarm of maniac robots. The goal was to shoot your way through anything moving. One joystick allowed to move your avatar and another to direct your gun (thus you could move left while shooting on the opposite direction).

In Llamatron, the guy in the middle is replaced by a lama and the enemies take rather strange shapes (heads, hamburgers, toilet paper rolls . . .). It's completely wacky! In addition, the various beep-beeps and flashes of all kinds will blow up both your retinas and your eardrums.

It is also the only game I know of where we face a toilet bowl. It needed to be reported.
