Clu Clu Land-e is an e-Reader game released in 2003. The game is a port of the Nintendo Entertainment System video game Clu Clu Land and was part of the third batch of classic NES ports for the e-Reader. The player could play the game by scanning five cards, each one with two barcodes excluding the fifth one, which only had one. When the game was first released, it cost a suggested retail price of $4.99, though as the e-Reader lost momentum the price dropped in many stores.

Card 3 of 5/codes 5-6[]

GAME BASICS Sea Urchins hide the gold bars in a pattern, forming a certain shape so they don't forget where the bars are hidden.

You don't know what the shape will be, but most are vertically symmetrical.

The mysterious maze comes in 5 different colors, and each color has four different pattern forms, for a total of 20.

From the 22nd round on, passing over a gold bar twice covers it again. To complete the pattern form and move on to the next round, all gold bars must be uncovered.

Card 5 of 5/code 9[]

Tips/Hints Bubbles bounces off walls like a ball. Use this to your advantage to avoid Sea Urchins.

In some scenes, Bubbles can travel off the edge of the screen and reappear on the other side.

You can stun the horrible Sea Urchins with electric shock waves, but only temporarily–they will recover. To get rid of them fro a while, smash them against a wall while they are stunned.

You will lose a life when you bump into a Sea Urchin, fall into a black hole, or the timer runs out.
