Description
This is a digging
game with gameplay similar to that of Dig Dug where the player controls Mr. Do, a clown
character, in pit-like
underground areas where he has to either kill all enemies or
collect all cherries to advance to the next level. Enemies are
killed by either shooting them with Mr. Do's weapon ball, or by
walking under an apple and having it drop on an enemy. The
player also advances if all the letters that spell
"EXTRA" are all collected. There is a diamond that
appears once in a while
that gives the player an extra game credit if collected. This is
the 1st title in the Mr. Do! series. Yankee DO! is a hack with a
Civil War theme. The player instead controls an Uncle Sam /
Abraham Lincoln character and has bombs instead of a ball.
The enemies consist of soldiers on horses, and the player moves
much faster. Instead of apples, there are oil barrels.
