EYE GAME is a test of your skill and agility. The goal is simply to earn the highest score. Players start each new game with five lives and gain additional lives with every level successfully completed. Lives are lost every time an eye vanishes off the screen before it is poked. For every seven green-eye lives earned, you receive one golden-eye life. There is no limit to the number of lives you may earn during a game

The game is divided into levels with fifteen second rest periods between each. You must poke 150 eyes during each level in order to advance to the next. The game speed increases by 5% at the beginning of each level.

As eyes pop onto the screen your job is to poke them before they disappear again. Each successful poke earns points that are ten times your current level. for example, during Level 1, each poke earns ten points, during Level 2, twenty and so on. Conversely, a miss causes you to lose twice those points. When your score reaches 5,000, poking a golden eye before it vanishes earns you a fifteen second bonus period during which your hit scores are doubled.

At 10,000 points an additional and difficult challenge is introduced. In the upper right corner of the screen, a colored eye will appear. While the eye is visible, you must avoid poking any eyes that are the same color, as those pokes one will cause you to lose 5% of your current score. Be alert because every fifteen seconds the color of the eye may change.
