Incidentally, gaming has already had its own version of Plan 9 From Outer Space – developed by Gremlin Interactive in Ireland and released in 1992 for the Amiga, Atari ST and PC, it's not so much a game of the film as a game featuring the film. A bit of a turkey itself, it received mixed reviews, with its best score coming from our late sister magazine Zero, which gave it 89%, mostly on the strength of its campy charm, in-jokes and the free copy of the movie that came in the box.

It was a point-and-click adventure with largely static graphics that pitted you against Bela Lugosi's double to find stolen reels of Ed Wood's "masterpiece". In a revolutionary move for its time and genre, it even included clips of the film in the game. In short, it's a something that only a fan of the film could really love and almost, but not quite, a B-Game in its own right.
