About Bozo’s Night Out

Bozo can run into many obstacles on his journey home; he can fall into trap doors, get caught by the police, run into people, and even run into ghosts and dragons. If Bozo can successfully get home, he drinks five more pints the next night at the pub ("Gibbo's Joint") and this process repeats until the Bozo reaches 60 pints. As Bozo drinks, the controls get looser and he starts to see pink elephants. The effects of increasing difficulty include more pedestrians which the player needs to evade (all of which automatically end the night by either attacking him or jailing him), manhole covers disappear with increasing variation, Bozo staggers more making walking in a straight line near impossible without repeated intervention which in itself is hard.

If Bozo cannot successfully get home he loses anywhere from one to five pints, and the game starts over if Bozo runs out of his pints of drunkenness.

Getting home with 60 pints (the game does not automatically end at 60 pints) results in the player receiving a "Bozo Rotten Liver Award" and the game ending on a screen of a hospital bed.
