Naughty Boy

Overview

Naughty Boy is a top-down scrolling arcade maze game. You control a "naughty boy" who is armed with stones which he can throw and are particularly destructive when they land. You can hold down the button while throwing to make the stone travel further. Your goal is to reach the end of the level at the top of the screen and destroy the flags decorating the enemy's fortress. While doing this, you must avoid creatures of various sorts including ghosts, robots, and fire-breathing dragons that may emerge from nearby swamps. Once the flags are destroyed, the castle catches fire and the next level begins.

Bonuses in the form of fruit may occasionally appear, and may be captured by landing a rock on them. Special bonuses, represented by question marks, will cause all of the enemies on screen to become afraid and unable to harm you for a short period of time. Some of the levels also require you to destroy some of the terrain (such as barbed wire or defensive walls) that are blocking your way.

Every two levels, there is a bonus round where you are flying a balloon overhead and can drop items on the monster running around beneath you for points. The bonus round ends when your balloon runs out of fuel. There are a total of four level maps, after which the game repeats at a higher difficulty.
