| | The 1st player enters a shooting range, where Ukikis are turning gears. The player then has a shot which dosen't count, then the game starts. |
| The first player enters a small room filled with gears that a [[Ukiki]] is cranking. The player then shoots an [[apple]]-shaped target, after which the screen splits into four sections and the game starts. | |

| ==Gameplay== | | ==Gameplay== |
| In this game, 15 apple-shaped targets slide in front of the players, who need to shoot target zones attached to them that are worth 10, 30, or 100 [[point]]s. Each target stays on the screen for one whole second, so the players need to shoot the targets quickly. The targets do not have the point zones in the same locations. Whoever has the most points after all the targets wins. | | In this game the [[player]]s are in a small room filled with gears that are being cranked by an [[Ukiki]], where apple shaped targets will slide in front of them and they need to shoot smaller targets attached to them, that give the player ten, thirty, or one-hundred points. Whoever has the most points after all the targets wins. |
