Do you think you can outlast the bomber? Yeah? Well, prove it. Armed with only three buckets of water (using the paddle controller), the object is to catch every bomb that the frowning mad bomber throws at you. If you miss one bomb, every bomb will explode and the bomber will taunt you with his grin and you will lose one bucket. For every successful wave of bombs caught, the bomber will move faster and drop more bombs. This pattern continues until you lose all three buckets, thus ending the game and putting a smile back on the bomber's face.
Upon release of this game for the Atari 2600, Atari had a hit on their hands. Aside from it being just a pattern game, this is a highly addictive and challenging video game. The graphics and sound are excellent. The facial expressions of the bomber and sounds of the lit fuses on bombs and explosions are dead on. The controls (being the paddle controller) work well with this game. Very rare for a game made for the Atari 2600.
My evaluation: 10 out of 10
