Thank goodness for pesticides! Just pierce one of the DDT bombs in your garden and earn an automatic 800 points. Explode the DDT at the right time, and the vapor will wipe out any bug it touches! For each bug that’s destroyed by DDT, you’ll earn triple the points you’d normally get for it.

Each time you lose a bug blaster, you receive 5 points for every flower and every three mushrooms left on the screen.

Bonus Life

You begin the game with three lives. For every 15,000 points you earn, you’re awarded another life
