PUZZLE #314: Link-Letters 9

PUZZLE #314
LINK-LETTERS 9

There are two clues for each numbered row. The answers to each row's first clue go in the squares to the left of the first black bar in each correspondingly numbered row in the puzzle's grid, and the answers to the second clue go into the squares to the right of the second black bar. Then a single letter (the "Link-Letter") goes in the square in the middle to complete a single word that reads all the way across. For example, if the two words are CON and ACT, you can put a "T" between them to get CONTACT.

Once you've filled out all eight rows, the central letters will spell out two words reading down. Add a letter between those two words in the red square to get this week's FINAL ANSWER: the name of a 1980s computer game


1) _____ Rogers in the 25th Century
    Miami team that Shaquille O'Neal played for
2) Fester from The Addams Family, e.g.
    Actor Beatty who's not related to Warren Beatty
3) Sandwich made with pita bread
    Handles hard times
4) Gun a motor
    Tony-winning musical with the song "Seasons of Love"
5) When doubled, a #1 hit by the Archies
    Big lummox
6) Boat's bottom
    Jungle Book bear who later starred in TaleSpin
7) It's directly to the right of the "M" key on a QWERTY keyboard
    Leaping mammal on a yellow "XING" sign
8) Minute to _____ It (NBC/GSN game show)
    Conclusive evidence in court

Once you believe you've figured out the FINAL ANSWER, send it to either redhead64@chartermi.net or itsredhead64@gmail.com (though I'm more likely to check the second one) and I'll put your name on a solvers list once I post the answers in about two weeks. You can also use those email addresses to give me some comments and feedback (or get a hint from me in exchange for a "hint star"; more details for that are on the sidebar to the right) or send me the answer to last week's puzzle, if you haven't already figured it out. If you have a printer and want to solve this puzzle on paper, just head below the break for a link to a .PDF version which you can print out!
