Taz © 1983 Atari, Incorporated.
You are TAZ, the ravenous Tasmanian Devil who whirls like a tornado and eats everything in sight. Hamburgers, root beer, ice cream - you are jazzed by such junk! But look out, sometimes your feeding is so frenzied that you accidentally swallow dynamite! Pow! What a bellyache!
Your objective: Glut on every edible item that comes your way to achieve the fattest score possible while you stay alive as long as possible.

Don't stay near the edge of the screen. This is where an item first appears and you won't have time to see if it's food or dynamite. When dynamite comes between you and food, wait until the path is clear to move up or down the screen.
Remember that you can wait in a single path as long as you like. You won't be penalized, and it may give you more time to plan your strategy.
Hit Select 22 times, then hit the Fire button to start. When the CRAZED WAVE appears (at 32,500 points), hold the Fire button down to change it to reveal WOITA WAVE (after the programmer's name Steve Woita).
