Buzz Bombers

Buzz Bombers, developed by Mattel for the Intellivision

Is a fast-paced arcade action game that brings thrilling insect combat to your screen. Similar to the popular arcade game Centipede, you take control of a can of bug spray at the bottom of the screen, fending off waves of bees as they buzz downwards from the top. Your mission: stop the bees from reaching the ground and pollinating the flowers, which will grow and restrict your movement.

Each bee you shoot transforms into a honeycomb, adding complexity to the gameplay. The honeycombs act as obstacles, causing the bees to move faster toward the ground as they turn back when encountering one. You can shoot the honeycombs to clear them out, but leaving them in place attracts a friendly hummingbird. This bird will feast on the honey, giving you valuable bonus points!

The game ramps up as more flowers grow, limiting your movement and increasing the challenge. With quick reflexes and strategic shooting, you’ll need to manage the bees, honeycombs, and flowers to keep the swarm at bay. The game ends when all your spray cans are immobilized by growing flowers.

Key Features:

Arcade-Style Action: Inspired by the classic Centipede, Buzz Bombers offers intense, insect-blasting gameplay that tests your reflexes and strategy.

Control a Can of Bug Spray: Defend yourself from swarming bees using a bug spray can, shooting them before they reach the ground.

Create and Manage Honeycombs: Shot bees turn into honeycombs that alter the bees' flight paths. Shoot them to clear the way or let a hummingbird snack on the honey for extra points.

Challenging, Progressive Levels: As bees pollinate flowers, they grow and restrict your movement, making it harder to defend yourself. The game gets progressively more difficult the longer you play.

Endless Fun: Score as many points as possible before all of your spray cans are overwhelmed by growing flowers.

For retro gaming enthusiasts and fans of classic arcade action, Buzz Bombers delivers a unique and engaging challenge. Can you fend off the buzzing swarm and rack up high scores before the flowers take over? Find out in this timeless Intellivision gem!
