"Cannonball Castle, fortress of the enemy redcoats, sits high
|
||
atop Nutcracker Hill. It is your mission, as a rebel soldier, to
|
||
climb Nutcracker Hill and destroy the castle. Not so fast though -
|
||
there are many traps and obstacles designed solely for your
|
||
elimination. Rough terrain and enemy troops are bent on your
|
||
destruction, and a constant rain of cannonballs could cause a
|
||
fatally large headache. Many men before you have tried and failed,
|
||
so it's all up to you...
|
||
|
||
Cannonball Blitz is an exciting new arcade game that will have you
|
||
climbing the walls (the walls of Cannonball Castle) over and over
|
||
again."

You are the soldier. Your mission... to capture and destroy the
|
||
enemy Guard's flag.
|
||
|
||
But they don't give up their flags easily. They send down a
|
||
barrage of cannonballs and cannons - all designed to give you a
|
||
terrible headache. To aid you in quest of the enemies’ flag, you
|
||
can use the balloons or the see-saws to help you.
|
||
|
||
On the second screen, your mission is to make holes in the
|
||
platforms all the way to the top of the screen and knock them out
|
||
from under the Guard. Your soldier must cross over the trapdoors
|
||
to make a hole. Beware of the cannons! A cannon can be destroyed
|
||
with a hammer, or with enough skill, you soldier can jump them.
|
||
Your soldier may also take advantage of the many ladders to help
|
||
him to the top.
|
||
|
||
On the third screen, your mission once again is to capture the
|
||
Guard’s flag. This time there are elevators to assist you. You are
|
||
allowed three headaches, and then the game is over.
