Synopsis

The player controls Jack, a superhero capable of jumping and gliding. Someone has placed 24 bombs on famous tourist sites (the Sphinx and the Great Pyramids, the Acropolis, Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, and two urban landscapes resembling Miami Beach and Hollywood, which appear only as background screens rather than unique gameplay locations). Jack must fly around the screen to collect the bombs. Each screen uses a different configuration of platforms on which Jack can run and jump. Eventually, the levels repeat several times with increasing difficulty.

Jack "defuses" the bombs simply by touching them. As soon as he touches the first one, it triggers a sequence in which the fuse of another bomb lights up, and so on. A player can earn a bonus each round by touching 20 or more bombs in the correct lighting sequence. Jack can also defuse an extinguished bomb by touching it, but this prevents him from earning the bonus for that screen. It also delays the appearance of power-ups and bonuses in the game.
