Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em

Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em is a pornographic video game for the Atari 2600 created by Mystique. This game currently has the fifth-to-lowest score for an Atari 2600 game on GameFAQs of 1.13 due to the fact that it was re-released in a bundle that came with another pornographic game Lady in Wading, on some versions of the bundle the game also came with yet another game made by the same brand who made the game under the name of Bachelor Party.

However, the game is also rare and can sell for hundreds of dollars on the internet with a brand new game costing almost a thousand dollars.

Gameplay
Gamers control two nude women trying to catch semen from a man masturbating at the top of a roof. You lose a life for every drop you miss, and missing four results in a game over. Getting 69 points will grant you an extra life.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) The mere idea of a porn game existing on the Atari 2600 of all consoles. While this was during an era where pretty much anyone with programming skills could make a game and sell it, who would expect to get horny while playing a 4-bit console?
 * 2) Awful character design. The man's penis appears to be the same size as his body, making it look like his legs are conjoined.
 * 3) Catching the semen is extremely precise. The women need to be at the right angle to catch the semen.
 * 4) It is nothing more than a blatant rip-off of the arcade game Kaboom!, only with an adult theme.
 * 5) Awful soundtrack. It blatantly steals sound effects from the Atari 2600 port of Pac-Man.

Reception
Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em has received negative reception since its release. It is often cited as an example of pornographic Atari 2600 games.

Atari HQ identified both the Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em and the PlayAround cartridge a rarity level of 5 out of 10. Allgame gave it two stars out of five.

Seanbaby included it in his list of the 10 naughtiest games of all time; he mocked a quote in the manual that chastises players who fail to catch sperm as the sperm "could have been a famous doctor or lawyer" due to the fact that swallowing sperm has the same effect as letting it hit the ground. He also criticized the level of eroticism stating, "There's something non-erotic about skipping past the courting, past the foreplay, past the actual sex, and getting straight to the sperm-swallowing. They might as well have skipped directly to sleeping on the wet spot."

GamesTM used it as an example of Atari 2600 games that feature masturbation as its core gameplay mechanic.

Steven Poole satirized the News International phone hacking scandal using Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em called Whack 'Em & Hack 'Em in a commentary on the Supreme Court of the United States' ruling that video games are protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution and the US' "'obscenity' exception" to free speech.

The game was referenced in a level of Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures under a similar name.
