Description official description

You pilot a plane and must rescue animals from cages where they were placed by gorillas. To do this, you fly over a gorilla and drop a bomb, knocking the gorilla off its feet. Once this is done, the animals will be out of their cages and you just touch each one to rescue it. The animal cages will only be open for a limited time, then the gorilla will get back on its feet. You must then knock it down again.

You mustn't take too long rescuing the animals or you will run out of fuel. If you run out of fuel, run into a gorilla or the course walls or, strangely, a cloud, you lose a plane. You begin the game with four planes.

Difficulty switches

Set to A for faster plane, set to B for slower plane.

Game variations

Game 1...Tricky flying course

Game 2...Tricky flying course and clouds

Game 3...Tricky flying course, clouds and faster plane.

Scoring

Knock a gorilla of its feet=10 points

Rescue any one animal=100 points

Rescue one of each of the four types of animals, consecutively (1 cat, 1 turtle, 1 rabbit, 1 duck)=500 points

You get an extra plane every 10,000 points.
