Imagic Tapestries
Description: A retro sci-fi video game poster showcasing a massive, futuristic space station floating in the cosmos, surrounded by vibrant red and blue nebulae. Below, a smaller spacecraft beams up from a glowing planet surface, emphasizing the game’s interstellar rescue mission theme. Framed by bold rainbow-striped borders and the Imagic logo, the distressed design captures the colorful, high-energy style of early 1980s arcade and console gaming culture.
Description: Cosmic Ark is a video game published by Imagic in 1982. The objective is to gather specimens from different planets in a spaceship which contains the survivors from the city of Atlantis. There are two versions of the cartridge. One allows the player to toggle the starfield display on and off with the Black & White / Color TV switch, and another which the starfield cannot be disabled. The first stage has the player fending off meteor showers from all four sides of the screen by pushing the joystick to fire in the desired direction, similar to the 1980 arcade game Space Zap. The second stage requires the player to pilot a shuttle to a planet and use its tractor beam to pick up life forms.
