== Basic Play ==
This section contains basic instructions on the objective of the game, as well as a screenshot from Phase 2:
Hit your enemy from above to pop his balloon and turn it into a parachute, then hit the enemy again to make him disappear. Eliminate all the enemies to clear the stage. If you pop enemy balloons, break enemy parachutes, or pop a bubble, you will earn points.
=== Game Over ===
If you are hit by lightning, dropped in the water, eaten by a fish, or have both of your balloons popped, you will lose one life. If you run out of lives, your game will end.
== Game Screen ==
This section has a screenshot of Phase 1, with several lines pointing connecting elements in the screenshot to labels:
* Current Score
* Remaining Lives
* High Score
* Lightning
== Bonus Stages ==
This section describes how the Bonus Stages work, alongside a screenshot of the first Bonus Stage:
Each time you clear three stages in an A or B game, you will encounter a bonus stage. Try to pop as many balloons as possible in the given amount of time. You cannot lose lives in the bonus stage.
== Balloon Trip ==
This section describes how Balloon Trip mode works, alongside a screenshot which has the Rank number labeled:
Move around the screen as it scrolls and pop as many balloons as possible, without being touched by lightning or falling into the sea. Your rank will appear in the upper-right corner of the screen, and you will be able to see where you rank among the top 50 players. If you can pop 20 balloons in a row, you will earn bonus points.
== Survival Techniques ==
This section contains basic advice for effectively playing modes A and B, alongside another screenshot of Phase 2:
* Finish off enemies quickly! Enemies can't attack while inflating their balloons. This is your chance to knock them out.
* Look out for fish! If you hover near the surface of the water, you might get eaten by a fish! Watch out for fish when you are near the water.
== Suspending Play ==
This section details how Suspend Points work on the Virtual Console. This functionality is standard across the Virtual Console game releases.
