Game Info

Lady Bug gobbles her way through a maze. Suddenly a starving insect charges after her! Use turnstiles to change the maze and
block the predator's pursuit. But remember to avoid deadly pesticide skulls. Lady Bug earns points by eating flowers, hearts and
vegetables and by spelling the word "EXTRA". How many points can you rack up before the predators catch Lady Bug?

I've never been very good at maze games(Pac-Man, Lock N' Chase) and this is no exception. I couild only get to 16,460 on my first try but I have 2 weeks to get my score up!

Tough game choice this time.

Unfortunately, I'm out on this one since I don't have it.

[JayWI]

This is a pretty fun game. I'll have to look into adding it to my Intv collection.

52530 I'll be trying again though.

[patbb]

I got over 100k ... on my 3rd game.

It's the first time I play this game on the intellivision.
I've being playing the colecovision version for years.

Tips for beginners:
Try to eat the hearts while they are blue and as soon as possible, this way you will have X5 the points.
Always eat the letters yellow, when EXTRA will be spelled, you will have an extra life.
After the fourth enemies goes out, a vegetable will appear in the center, this is worth a lot a points, the points increase at each level.


In the arcade and Coleco version, you can also spell SPECIAL to get to a level with vegetables all over the place, this is why the letters turns to red.

You jerk! I'm watching a Colecovision lot right now and now you throw out this morsel. I see a few games in there I don't have and would love to get.

[jaybird3rd]

Hmmm ... I'm going to have to see if I can snag a copy of Ladybug for the Intellivision (I've been meaning to get it anyway).

Thanks for the tips! Are the side buttons or keypad used at all for this game (other than skill level and number of players)?

I would have take this lot but the seller does not want to ship to Canada

[IntellivisionDude]

Since i have no plan to buy this game anytime soon, i'd still like to give it a shot. Can anybody recommend an emulator? I haven't tried an Intellivision emulator in few years and the ones then weren't that great. Wasn't sure if they improved on them since.

I use the Nostalgia 5.

The previous releases also work great.

I had many problems running the other emulators under Windows XP.

Lady Bug keeps crashing on me. I set it for 1 player hit enter, set the skill level hit enter, and it crashes. Oh well, i'll mess with it later. And i am using Windows XP.

Nevermind, i figured it out.

I don't have this game, and rev's dangling carrots won't work because I am a snooty jerk that will only collect CIB stuff. Find me a CIB Lady Bug for cheap.
