    AMOK (アモック) is a shooting game developed by Lemon and published by Scavenger for the Sega Saturn. The Japanese release was published by Koei.

    A preview for the game in C&VG magazine #167 (dated October 1995, over a year before its actual release) suggests AMOK was also planned for release on the 32X.[6]
