Gorf is a classic arcade-style shoot 'em up video game originally developed by Midway in 1981. It was later ported to various home systems, including the Colecovision. Featuring a galactic battle against invading alien forces, the game stands out with its multiple mission stages that offer varied gameplay. Each stage presents different challenges, including space battles reminiscent of games like Space Invaders and Galaxian. As players progress, the game increases in speed and difficulty. Gorf was notable for its use of synthesized speech, an innovative feature at the time. The game's name stands for 'Galactic Orbiting Robot Force', and it allows players to control a spaceship with the task of defending Earth.
