CATALOG DESCRIPTION

Q-Bert is a comical character who hops across a pyramid-shaped block formation. As he hops, he changes teh colour of the block-top. The object of Q-Bert is to change all the block-tops to the specified colour for that game level. While hopping, Q-Bert must avoid coloured balls which fall from the top, and enemies SLICK and SAM which appear at the bottom and "fall" up and across the blocks. Most of all, Q-Bert must beware of "Coilly" the snake, who bounces down the blocks as a purple ball then hatches to chase Q-Bert. Q-Bert can escape any of these enemies by leaping from the pyramid to a whirling escape disc which lifts him out of danger to the top of the pyramid.
