In ABM the player uses anti-ballistic missiles to defend six cities along the East Coast against incoming ICBMs.[3]

Reception

Bruce Webster reviewed ABM in The Space Gamer No. 43.[3] Webster wrote that "In the end, the question is whether or not you want to spend the money for another arcade game. If so, then I can recommend ABM to you with the above caveats."[3]
