    TRIVIA
    Released in July 1982 in Japan.

    One of the first game created by the dynamic duo Nishizawa/Ishizuka, who later became the core of Westone (aka the developers of the "Wonder Boy/Monster World" saga).

    The main enemies in the first three racks -- Turtles, Crabs and Waterbugs -- would show up in Mario Brothers in the next year.

    SCORING
    Strawberries: 100, 200, 300, or 400 points.
    Bananas: 200, 400, 600, or 800 points.
    Grapes: 300 600, 900, 1200, or points
    Grapefruit(?): 400, 800, 1200, or 1600 points.
    Other Fruits: 50, 100, 150, or 200 points.
    Enemies (after getting target): 200 points.
    Bonus, first three racks: 1000 points if all strawberries are picked up.
    Bonus, fourth rack: 0-10,000 points, depending on whether you've picked up four of each of the fruits.

    TIPS AND TRICKS
    Try to eat as many fruits in a row as you can. Once you miss a fruit, you will start scoring again at the lowest point level.
