Game Over is a 'shoot-em-up' computer game developed by Spanish software company Dinamic Software and published by Imagine Software in 1987 for various home computer platforms. It later spawned two sequels. The title is a reference to the common video game terminology, game over.

Game Over is best known as a controversial game in which a visible female nipple can be seen in its advertising and inlay artwork[1]. Oli Frey, the art editor for CRASH magazine painted over the original bare-breasted image with the thin grey corset so that it could be printed[2], but even so retailers demanded that logos be placed over the nipples.
