Abscam © 1982 GL.
This game looks like a sofistifated hack of Namco's "Pac-Man".
A human-shaped player moves around a maze collecting money and avoiding the FBI cars. Collecting all the money moves the player to the next level.
Abscam (sometimes ABSCAM) was a United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) sting operation run from the FBI's Hauppauge, Long Island, office in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The operation initially targeted trafficking in stolen property but was converted to a public corruption investigation.
ABSCAM is a contraction of 'Abdul scam'. Abdul refers to the name of the FBI front used in the sting operation: Abdul Enterprises, Ltd., and the name of the fictitious sheik who ran that enterprise (Kambir Abdul Rahman).
