Video Whizball

Video Whizball is a game where players control paddles to protect a goal from being entered by whizballs. To protect their goal, the player's paddle can fire missiles which can be aimed straight or angled. Missiles that hit whizballs can help propel in an opposite direction. If one of the missiles (or the whizballs) hit the player's or an opponent's paddle, they will temporarily disappear leaving their goal undefended. The game is won when one of the players gets to a selected score. The game contains 72 game variations of this basic premise, including having from 1 to 4 whizballs and 6 different game types. Game types are Basic where each whizball is worth 1 point, Basic Plus where players can guide the missile shots, Bonus where whizballs are worth 1 to 4 points each, Bonus Plus which adds guided missiles to the Bonus mode, Super Bonus where whizballs increase in value the longer they stay in play, and Super Bonus Plus which adds guided missile shots to the Super Bonus mode.
