Official description

One day in a forest, a group of wolves attacked the Pig's House where Mother Pig (Mama) and her little Piggies (Pooyans) were living peacefully. Mama fought against wolves to protect Pooyans using arrows and meat. For all her efforts, however, some Pooyans were kidnapped Hating the Wolves, Mama bravely goes to the Wolves' Lair to rescue Pooyans. Is she able to beat Wolves and take Pooyans back home ?

SCENE I (Pig's House)
Move Mama up and down by control lever and beat the descending Wolves by shooting their balloons. Player can also beat Wolves by using meat which appears at the right top of the cliff. (When Wolves saw meat thrown, they take their hands off the balloons to try to catch it. If the Player fails to beat them, the Wolves successfully land at the bottom of the valley and climb the ladder to bite Mama. At the same time, each landed wolf will kidnap a Pooyan. This scene will be completed when the number on the flag at the left top of the cliff, which indicates the remaining number of Wolves, has become zero.

SCENE II (Wolf's Lair)
This time, Wolves go up with balloons from the bottom of another valley (Wolfs Lair). Again, make wolves fall down using meat and arrows.
Try hard not to let them up, otherwise seven Wolves join on the cliff to drop a giant rock at Mama and crush her. The only way to complete this scene is to beat the Pink Wolf (Boss) who appears in the end by throwing meat or shooting arrows at least five times. If Player misses him, additional five wolves will appear.
