About Trampoline Terror!

From space, a menacing fortress appears in the sky. Surrounding it, a "trampoline" sidewalk armed with bombs and patrolled by enemy invaders. You, the Trampoline Terror, have the guts to fight back. Stealthful observation reveals self-destruct switches planted on 32 strongholds. Triggering each one will be no simple task. Powerful alien patrols will thwart your efforts, pushing you to the edge... and beyond! And beware the trampolines, whose very structure weakens with your every jump. Only your bounding skill and sharp cunning can save the day. So hop to it!

A quirky grid-hopping action-puzzler that stayed in North America and costs more than the typical cart.

Trampoline Terror! is an overhead-view action game with strategy elements, developed by NCS and published by DreamWorks in 1990, and released only in North America. A Japanese release called Explode Star was planned but cancelled.

Game Players described its play as jumping from square to square on a floating grid of tiled sidewalks, setting explosive switches while avoiding guards and gaps, and called it a good game.
