    The game is an NTSC game, plays faster at 60 HZ and the graphics only look correct with NTSC artifacting, https://postimg.cc/DSDSXVZ6

    This game is a blast to play with the paddle controllers, and besides being a general catch-an-egg game it throws in an extra bit or two - such the egg hatching a chick if you don't catch it, and then the chick running all over the playing field, making your chicken have to be extra careful to jump when the chick runs under her and to not squash the chick with her egg cart. Simple graphics, but loads of fun to play. There is no real ending, per se, just harder and faster levels, but it's still a blast.
