Bimbo

## Description

_Bimbo_ is an arcade race/pursuit game where the player controls a rabbit
(named Bimbo) in a multi-level maze race, hunting for carrots, while being
pursued by black ‘killer rabbits’.

(The game plays similar to a racing game, with rabbits instead of cars, and
carrots instead of fuel.)

To slow the competitors down the player can drop green apples in their path,
which they stop to eat. There is an energy bar you need to watch, as energy is
used by moving, and if it runs out, you lose a life. To keep Bimbo’s energy
up, you need to find and eat carrots. Extra points are also given for eating
clovers.

Each level has ten carrots hidden in a maze larger than the screen, and you
use a carrot-radar to show their location. In addition to the killer rabbits,
you have to watch out so Bimbo does not fall into pitholes in the maze.

Once all ten carrots are eaten, you get to the next level, and the number of
enemy rabbits increase by one, up to a maximum of ten pursuers.

Every fourth level is without enemies, and you just race against the clock
while finding the carrots.

Getting caught by a black rabbit, falling in a pit or running out of time also
loses a life; you have five extra lives per game.

Scoring depends on how fast you found the carrots, and how many extra clovers
you ate.

There is no hall of fame list, only a single high score to compare your
current score with.
