Description

PiPi is an action maze game in which the player takes the role of PiPi, a parrot, who got captured by King Mendama and locked in a maze-like prison in the underground of the Mendarm kingdom. He is so scared of being eaten that he bravely tries to escape from it. When PiPi walks through the maze he leaves footprints, and when the footprints surround a block in the maze, that block collapses. Once all the blocks are destroyed, he can move on to the next scene by slipping in the mouth of the guard dog Bowbow.

The rattlesnakes in the maze who want to eat PiPi are usually blue. However, by eating bonus items like hamburger, persimmon, ice cream, peanut, or fish, he will be powered up for 5 seconds. During that time, the rattlesnakes turn red and PiPi (turning white) can eat them. He also doesn't have to worry about getting hurt from touching Mendama. Also, if PiPi eats a power bread that suddenly appears, all enemies will disappear for a few seconds. When the time limit is below 50% King Mendama will appear and will chase PiPi.

PiPi starts with 5 lives. 1 live will be added for 20,000 points. However, a maximum of 8 lives is allowed.
