About this game

For Help! you control a guy who swings a mean stick that will knock out snakes that come up from the ground and climb up the vines you can maneuver on. However the blue striped snakes cannot be killed and are quite fast and if they touch our hero he will lose a life and have to listen to some agonizing music and any yellow snakes will advance to the top of the tree. You can also get a game over if enough of the yellow snakes reach the top of the tree and eventually will reach the large apple above your girlfriends head. They’ll then cruelly drop it down on top of her head crushing her! Eventually if you club enough snakes you’ll move on to the next level but the amount of snakes that reached the top stay. The controls of the game are a bit difficult and make it tricky to maneuver the hero. If he’s holding on to two vines he cannot move up or down so you have to be careful.
