Trying to ID videogame that awarded free game (early 80's)

I am trying to remember a videogame I played back in the day (~1983 ??). I think the game was probably pretty lousy because I never saw another one. But I enjoyed it because you could earn a freeplay (via a score threshold I suppose, but maybe some achievement). I'd describe something about the gameplay/controls but I can't remember anything about it. It *may* have had an egg or egg-like element in it, lol, that's all I can recall.

Were there many games that awarded free games? Thanks.

So far none of those look correct. I'm going through the other games by those manufacturers since they are known to have awarded free plays...
 
Yeah- not many.

Mr Do is the one that comes to my mind first.

Spectar has a switch setting that awards an extra round or a free game if you beat the top score.

Spectar/Targ is lots of fun if there isn't much else to play.

Exidy's Side track offed a free game. When you started it set a score to beat for a free play.
 
Good idea on the Eggs, but that's not it. I also looked at available pictures on Klov for Side Track as well as all Exidy games in that timeframe. No luck so far.

Thanks for the help so far.
