Q*bert

Description:

1-2-3, One player, 4-5-6, Two players.

To score as many points as possible by changing the colour of the cubes on the pyramid from a starting colour to a destination colour.
You'll do this by hopping Q*bert from cube to cube while avoiding the "nasty" characters who will try to stop him.
Each time you can complete a pyramid, you'll proceed to a new pyramid -or round.

Try to complete as many rounds you can.
There are nine game levels in all; four rounds per level.

Turn your Joystick to the right so that the four corners make a diamond sharpe.

The joystick moves in the four diagonal directions shown.
These are the directions in which Q*bert hops around the pyramid.
