Action

U.S. Games’ January 1983 paddle game: a chicken drops eggs, a bear catches them in a hat, then throws them back for bonus. Built on the Kaboom! / Avalanche idea.

Facts

  • Easier variation uses a larger hat for catching eggs. Speed increases as rounds progress.
  • Electronic Games (June 1983) called it a fully-animated delight that improved on Kaboom! and Avalanche.
