Brief Play Description: 

Single button game.

Press "w" to drop tree, chicken, goat, or other object from a swinging pendulum. You have 60 seconds to build a barrier to protect the people on the ground from the assault of the radioactive mutant cockroaches. The challenge is to do so without killing too many people (because rest assured, people WILL die. Have a nice day.)

If a barrier is not built within 60 seconds, a hail of fireballs from the advancing cockroaches will slaughter the people left you haven't already killed.

The more people you save...the better you feel ;)
