Lock 'n' Chase

Lock 'n' Chase is a maze arcade game developed and published by Data East in Japan in 1981, and later published in North America by Taito. Lock 'n' Chase was Data East's answer to Pac-Man. The main character of the game is a thief. The object of the game is to enter a maze and collect all the coins and, if possible, other treasures that appear there. The thief must then leave the maze (a safe) without being apprehended by the Super D (police officers). The thief can close doors inside the maze to temporarily trap the Super D and keep them at bay. Only two doors can be closed at a time. The Super D policemen are named Stiffy, Scaredy, Smarty and Silly.
