Simutrek

(December 1983)


Logo: On a moving space background, some spinning lines which appear to form an S zoom out to the left. The letters "SIMUTREK" in a red italic font similar to an LCD display come in from the right. A red segmented S logo appears on the left over the spinning lines, and the spinning lines fade out. The text "P R E S E N T S" appears under the logo in a serif font, and the copyright notices "©Simutrek, Inc. 1983" and "℗Simutrek, Inc. 1983" appear at the bottom. The copyright notices fade out, followed by the logo and "P R E S E N T S" text. Throughout the logo, the text "CUBE BUTTON FOR INSTRUCTIONS" and "CREDIT 0" with the "0" in yellow are at the top and bottom respectively.

FX/SFX: All of the animation in the logo.

Music/Sounds: Eerie, droning music with whooshes over it.

Availability: Seen only on the rare arcade game Cube Quest.

Editor's Note: The eerie music combined with the dark atmosphere and low quality make for quite an unsettling logo, but it fits well with the unsettling atmosphere of Cube Quest. To make matters worse, Simutrek only released one arcade game, the aforementioned Cube Quest, before fading into obscurity.
