Deactivators is a computer game for the Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum[1] and Amstrad CPC 464, developed by Tigress Marketing and published by Ariolasoft's label, Reaktor, in late 1986. The music was written by Simon PC Frost
The player controls bomb disposal robots trying to deactivate bombs placed throughout a scientific research complex by terrorists. The method is to throw the bombs from room to room until the room with the exit door is found. The gravity in each room is often perpendicular or opposite to the room next door.
