This is quite possibly the most insane game you will ever play on any game console. Use your buckets to catch the bombs. Simple, you say? You won't be saying that when the Mad Bomber starts dropping those bombs at an ever increasing rate (not just in numbers, but also in speed). You have to have excellent reflexes if you want to score big.

I was in my 20's and I owned a child care and had 2 kids of my own. All the kids and I loved this game. In the evenings if I had a little time to myself, I would play the game. It was so much fun. The bombs drop and you have to catch them in three buckets that were stacked up. If I remember correctly, it seemed easier to catch the bombs when you would lose one bucket. The game would speed up to a point and the bombs dropped in a pattern and once you got the hang of it, you could go on playing for what seemed like forever. We wore out several sets of paddles with this game. I got this for my 11 year old grand daughter and she seems to like playing it a lot. That's good considering we also got the XBox 360 Kinect at the same time.

A great game from the atari Age, very fun to have if you have a Atari 2600 or a 7800! '
