were not very interesting, we were prepared

one all the more enjoyable. In the first
stage, balloons float up the screen and you
must shoot them all before you run out of
arrows. On the second level, you must again
shoot the red balloons, but without hitting
the yellow balloons. The third level, in
which you must pop bubbles to let the
butterflys trapped in them fly away, is easy
enough to lull you to sleep, only to get
"slimed" on the next level. We never got
beyond level four, not being nimble enough
to avoid being slimed, so you will have to
discover for yourself what awaits you on the
higher levels.
