Hogan's Alley is an arcade game that involves shooting targets. It was one of the earliest games to use a light gun.

Gameplay

Hogan's Alley has three modes. Mode A has a plain wall where you are given three targets to shoot. Mode B has you going through an alley that varies as you go along. In both of these modes, you are supposed to shoot cardboard cutouts of gangsters while avoiding police officers and law-abiding citizens.

Mode C is called Trick Shot. In this mode, some cans are thrown on screen. Using your gun, you must try to get them to the highest point value area on the other side of the screen.

Legacy

Hogan's Alley has been the basis for several of 9-Volt's microgames.

Ports and Remakes

  • In 1984, Hogan's Alley was ported to the NES.
  • There are plans to release this game on the Virtual Console.
