Introduction

Birds Of Prey is a very skillful game. The object of which is to get the highest score possible.
You start with three lives and get a bonus life every third time that you clear the screen.
You are attacked by:- Swoopers, Kamakazee Birds and Death Bombs. The Birds start off in formation at the top of the screen, with Swoopers peeling off from the formation, and coming in to attack, and then circling, bombing you whilst they do so. Kamakazee Birds also peel off from the formation, and then swoop at you as they descend. If they miss you they go off the bottom of the screen, re-appearing at the top.
You are also periodically attacked by Death Bombs. If you do not shoot them before they reach the bottom of the screen, you lose one life.
