Mario's Bombs Away
It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.
Mario's Bombs Away is a game for the Game & Watch released on November 10, 1983[1]; it was one of the six games made for the Panorama line.
Gameplay
The game involved moving Mario, dressed in soldier fatigues, from one side of the screen to the other while avoiding fires from enemy torches or Mario's teammate, who carelessly tosses burning cigarettes into a stream of oil. When he reaches the other side, he must carefully pass the bomb on to his army buddy. After five bombs are passed, they will explode on the enemy, rewarding the player with bonus points. The player must be careful, however, because Mario's slacker friend is unpredictable.
It was later re-released in its classic form in Game & Watch Gallery Advance. It can be played after the player collects 100 stars.
