Descpription:
Bonanza Bros. is a platform game where taking the
role of one or both of the brothers, Robo and Mobo (Mike and Spike in
some PAL versions), the player has to stealthily move inside a house
avoiding guards, retrieve several objects and move to the roof where
a non-rigid airship is expecting the player with the loot.
Two players can play cooperatively at the same time, as the screen is
always split in two. The player can walk, jump, shoot and move behind
a column or large furniture, which allows both hiding and dodging shots
from the guards, which can't be neutralized definitively, only stunned
for a few seconds using the gun or pressing a door against them.
They are alerted by sounds or with the Brothers entering their field of
vision, and then either hide, call for help or fire against the player.
If the player is hit, he drops all objects and loses a life. Some
guards have a riot shield and can only be hit when moving away.
