Official description
On target
An enemy fleet cruises directly below as you prepare for the final bomb run, finger waiting tensely on the bomb release. The aircraft carriers are hiding behind swiftly moving battleships and
cruisers, a shield you must penetrate for the really big score. Suddenly a break appears and you move in for the carriers. Careful now. Punch the release button and... BOMBS AWAY! It’s a direct
hit and the carrier goes down fast It’s a direct hit BOMBS AWAY is a direct hit with players bored by paddle and driving games. The astounding success of DROPZONE 4, the forerunner of BOMBS
AWAY, means this game is a proven profit-maker. Now you get this proven success with an ALL NEW cabinet, an ENHANCED attract mode and an IM-
PROVED screen display with brightly colored images of REAL battleships, cruisers and aircraft carriers. A direct hit sinks the ship right before your eyes. Potent payload Each quarter loads the player’s bombbay with 15 HIGH EXPLOSIVE bombs, enough to win a replay at 40 points with practice. And inexperienced players who don’t score even a single point (a feat in itself) are also awarded a
free game so you’ll get plenty of repeat business with BOMBS AWAY. Score and bombs dropped are displayed in big, clearly labelled numbers. It stands out anywhere Appealing air-sea combat graphic
and flashing explosion display make BOMBS AWAY an attention-getter in any location.
