Ali Baba and 40 Thieves

Ali Baba and 40 Thieves is an action game released by Sega in 1982 for the arcade. Players take on the role of the famous Arabian hero who must fend off and kill the forty thieves who are trying to steal his money. The game is based on the folk tale of the same name. It has a look similar to Pac-Man, which was released two years prior in 1980.

It was also ported to the MSX platform in 1984, and then a Vector-06C port was made based on the MSX version.
