Clu Clu Land is an arcade puzzle game released by Nintendo in 1984 for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Players control Bubbles, a bubblefish who moves continuously through grid-like stages filled with turning posts. By extending an arm to grab nearby posts, Bubbles can swing around corners to uncover hidden chains of gold ingots while avoiding spiked Unira urchins and dangerous black holes.
How to Play
Guide Bubbles through each maze to reveal the hidden picture formed by hidden gold ingots. Bubbles automatically moves in a straight line until you grab a turning post to change direction. Use sound waves to stun approaching Unira, then push them into the outer walls to defeat them before they recover.
Controls
- D-Pad / Arrow Keys: Extend arm toward adjacent posts to turn
- A Button / Z: Emit sound wave to stun Unira
- B Button / X: Emit sound wave to stun Unira
- Start / Enter: Pause / Start game
- Select / Shift: Select game mode
Tips
- Pay attention to the stage layout early; gold ingots always form a symmetrical pattern or recognizable shape when fully uncovered.
- Stun Unira with sound waves and quickly bump them into wall boundaries to eliminate them for extra points.
- Watch out for black holesโpassing over an open black hole will cost a life instantly.
