Game Instructions –
In this game, you must defeat the monsters by either dropping fruit on them or blowing them up with bombs.
Use the cursor keys to move, [Z] to drop a fruit, [X] to throw a bomb. The bomb will be thrown farther depending on how long you press [X], but if you hold it in for too long it will explode on your hand and you will die.
If you die 3 times, or let your ENERGY run out, it’s GAME OVER.
If only 5 fruits remain, they will all respawn at the next round.
You clear a round by either killing 5 monsters and dropping every fruit, or by killing 15 monsters.
SCORE:
Fruit drop = 100-700 points
Crushing a monster = 200-1000 points
Exploding a monster = 1000-3000 points
This game was based on both CHERRY ALIEN from the October ’83 issue and TABLE TENNIS from the July ’84 issue of Micom BASIC.
