# WATER BALLOON MASTERS

You have heard of shoot’em up games? Well, how about a splash’em down game?

Yes, a major breakthrough in computer technology has brought us this weird game!!!

All you have to do is to open your hand and let go of the balloon! The faster the pedestrians (notice Eric is one of them, go get him!) the more points you get, so go at it!

Every time you get a pedestrian your bonus goes down (weird hey? usually it goes up!). When it reaches 0 you can go the next level. You only have 90 seconds to do all that messy work!

To reset the game or to go to the next level when you have reached 0 and there is still time left on the clock press SYMBL SHIFT + A [STOP].

Features a COLOR/BLACK & WHITE mode and the famous 3-WAY JOYSTICK SYSTEM!

Loading name MASTERS  
Program type Arcade game
