Atomic Robo-Kid Special (アトミックロボキッドスペシャル) is a PC Engine port of the titular 1988 arcade shoot-'em-up game, Atomic Robo-Kid, that was released only in Japan. It is notable for having several large, open levels that require exploration and a shopping system where a player can trade in their extra lives for power-ups.

Story

Earth outpost colony Terra-12 has nearly been destroyed by an alien invasion and strange radiation. The small battle robot Atomic Robo-Kid is tasked with saving the colony.
