"Blip is the TV type game that you can take anywhere. Its player against player when you BLIP it with a friend. Or player versus machine is you play against BLIP itself.
Activate the mechanical power source by winding BLIPs timer.
Now, press the serve button and watch the light emitting diode (L.E.D.) come at you. But dont watch it too long. To win, you hand must be quicker than the BLIP. quickly press one of the numbered BLIP buttons to send the L.E.D. back where it came from. If your opponent misses, its score one for you on the automatic digital scoreboard.
Take BLIP anywhere, On boats, trains, cars, rocketships and planes.
When you play with BLIP you get carried away. And so does BLIP.
