Take to the skies as you play the part of our intrepid hero "BOMBJACK", the man
without fear, as he indulges his incurable hobby of Bomb collecting
"BOMBJACK" is the only game that will take you around the world from Greece to
Egypt, sunsoaked beaches to the skies of New York City, but don't expect a holiday
in this game. Danger threatens from every side in the form of deadly robots, rogue
satellites and even killer-sparrows!
Your only chance is to eat the power pill which drains your enemies of power and
leaves them easy prey to "BOMBJACK". But look out the pills effects won't last
forever, unlike "BOMBJACK'S" strange urge for collecting Bombs.
Addictive, High Flying, Bomb-Bustin' Fun and the Quality you've come to expect
