The game involves [[Mario]]—a soldier in this game—on a mission to | The game involves [[Mario]]—a soldier in this game—on a mission to carry a [[Bomb (object)|bomb]] to his [[Troop|troops]] on the other side of the screen. The [[List of enemies|enemies]] are waiting behind the trees in his path, so he must keep his bomb away from their torches. One of his comrades is the [[Heavy Smoker|heavy smoker]], who is a slacker that carelessly tosses burning cigars into a stream of spilled oil, so he must also keep it from igniting on the ground. Mario earns a point each time he advances a step to the right while carrying a bomb. When he reaches the other side, he must carefully pass the bomb to his buddy, who will toss it onto one of the five trees, giving Mario five points. After five bombs are passed, they will explode on the enemies, rewarding Mario with 10 points. As time passes, the torches and the fire on the ground will move faster. If Mario's bomb gets lit, he will retreat to his outpost, where the bomb will detonate in his face and blow up his outpost, earning him a miss. The [[Game Over|game ends]] when he gets three misses. True to the game's wartime jungle setting, there is an [[Alarm Monkey|alarm monkey]] serving as this unit's time function. | ||
Reaching 300 points without any misses doubles the score until a miss is made, but reaching said score with any misses will clear every miss instead. | |||
