Languages Information Proposed by
Anglais Spectar, released by Exidy in 1980, is the follow-up of "Targ". Gameplay is apparently unchanged, you control a vehicle called Whummel into a 9x9 grid maze, chasing down, and being chased by, the alien invaders. Targs have evolved into the more dangerous Rammers, and Spectars appears more often, shooting at player's ship.

You use a 4-Way joystick to guide your vehicle in the maze, and a pushbutton to shoot at enemies. Up to 2 players can alternate in gameplay.

The most noticeable difference from his predecessors is that to complete a level you can now collect all the gems in the maze, in a "Pacman"-like game or destroy all of the Rammers (like in "Targ"). Rammers and Spectars continue to appear from flashing pods, so you cannot rest and plan your course easily, or you will be overwhelmed by the alien force.

Graphic is highly improved compared to his predecessor: The maze now has barricades that must be avoided or can be used as a shielding against the enemies, and has ten environment settings, changing from the 'square-block town' of Targ to a city, a forest, a lunar landscape and many more. The enemies too are smarter and faster, and the fact that they go on spawning from the pods makes the game a even more frenzy challenge.

Français Spectar est la suite de «Targ». Vous contrôlez un véhicule dans un labyrinthe de 9x9 cases, combattant les envahisseurs extraterrestres dans 4 directions, et un bouton de tir. Les Targs ont évolué en Rammers plus dangereux, et les Spectars apparaissent plus souvent, tirant sur votre vaisseau.
Pour terminer un niveau, vous pouvez collecter toutes les gemmes à la «Pacman», soit détruire tous les Rammers (comme dans « Targ »). Les Rammers et les Spectars apparaissent en continu depuis des pods, vous n'avez donc ni repos ni parcours planifiable, sous peine d'être submergé.
Amélioration graphique par rapport au jeu précédent : le labyrinthe comporte désormais des barricades à éviter ou utiliser comme bouclier, et propose 10 environnements différents, de la « ville en carrés » de Targ à une métropole, une forêt, un paysage lunaire et bien d'autres.
Les ennemis sont plus intelligents et rapides, et leur débit rend le jeu encore plus frénétique.
