Pop'n Pop (c) 1998 Taito.

Pop'n Pop is a puzzle game using balloons. This is not only a puzzle game blended with a shooting invaders style game.

Move the player character with the joystick and change the position and release the balloons upwards using the 2 push buttons. Line up 3 or more of the same color balloons to pop them and clear the round by bursting all the balloons.

Many bosses appear using a variety of tricks to impede your progress.

There are 3 game modes.
- Puzzle Mode: Play by yourself or with another person to challenge the computer.
- VS CPU Mode: Play against the computer by yourself.
- 2 Player VS Mode: Play against your opponent with your selected characters.

- TECHNICAL -

Runs on the "Taito F3 System" Hardware.

Prom Stickers : E51

Players: 4
Control: 8-way joystick
Buttons: 4

- TRIVIA -

Pop'n Pop was developed by Dreams for Taito and released in February 1998.

All the characters in Pop'n Pop were selected from previous Taito games. Bubby&Bobby from Rainbow Islands, Sayo&Miki from Kiki-KaiKai, Bob&Jim from Don-Doko-Don, and Tiki&PyuPyu from New Zealand Story.

The game forbids the initials 'SEX' on the high score table. If you try, it gets changed to 'AAA'.

- UPDATES -

The US version has the "Winners Don't Use Drugs" screen.
