Total Recall — Licensed LCD Handheld
Total Recall was a licensed handheld LCD game based on the 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger science fiction film directed by Paul Verhoeven — one of the most commercially successful and culturally significant science fiction films of its era. The film’s Mars colonisation setting and action-oriented plot provided a natural backdrop for handheld game adaptation, and multiple manufacturers produced Total Recall games across various formats. This compact handheld version brought the film’s action to pocket gaming format at an accessible price point, capitalising on the film’s enormous popularity in the years following its theatrical release.
