The game's music is a song called "John Brown's Body", which was later used by Julia Ward Howe for the popular American Civil War song, "The Battle Hymm of the Republic" (also incorrectly referred to as "Glory Glory Hallelujah"). This game shows similarities with Dragon Defender (timer and lives). The Ghostbusters artwork used on the box and cart label was done by Duncan Eagleson and was originally used in an article in the March 1985 issue of Electronic Games magazine.

As one of the four Funvision Originals, this is pretty terrible. They were even too lazy to change the colors for the NSTC version!

Why this has a Ghostbusters label I don't know. It really is an NTSC conversion of Challenge by HES. Quite a fun game, but if you ever have played the PAL version you will notice that the music is all messed up by the conversion. Still a game worth having.
