DESCRIPTION

What's the first thing you'd equate with a seven-foot tall, animated, talking pitcher of fruit punch?

That's right, it's Kool-Aid Man, and he's starring in his own video game for the Atari 2600. The object of the game is to keep the nasty Thirsties from stealing the water from your swimming pool. Kool-Aid Man must touch them when they are busy drinking to capture them. When the Thirsties are moving, they can knock Kool-Aid Man around the game screen.

By collecting the ingredients to make a pitcher of Kool-Aid, Kool-Aid Man gains extra power to defeat the Thirsties. The ingredients needed are water (W's), sugar (S's) and Kool-Aid (K's). If Kool-Aid Man can collect these ingredients, he'll become temporarily invincible and able to capture moving Thirsties, too.

Should the Thirsties steal all of the pool water, you'll lose! Celebrate by drinking a glass of fruit punch — just makes sure it's not from inside Kool-Aid Man himself. ~ Joshua Hoffman, All Game Guide
