Buster Bros, also known as Pang and Pomping World in various countries because every game has to be called something, challenges two harpoon-wielding heroes to pop a large succession of bouncing bubbles that apparently threaten the world. Amidst backdrops of world landmarks, the two fire harpoons straight upward, which will pop the bubbles if either the tip or rope come into contact with them, causing larger bubbles to break into smaller ones, Asteroids-style. A variety of power-ups as well as platforms and marauding wildlife further complicate your mission, which becomes increasingly frenetic as your globe-trotting continues.
