Help Malcolm in his quest to defeat Melon Man, and see who can obtain the sweetest score! Tap the screen to make Malcolm jump and eat the treats. The faster you tap the screen the higher he will jump, and if you tap the screen continuously at the right speed he will stay in the air. If you quit tapping he will fall back to the ground. When Malcolm eats the treats, he adds points to his score, and when he eats the healthy treats he adds points to his life. But be careful, the macaroni noodle and the egg might give him gas. If Malcolm gets hit by a fly, a bat, Melon Man, or his brothers he will loose points from his life score. If your life score falls to zero you loose and will have to start over. Melon Man and his brothers loose life points and can be defeated by eating the watermelon bombs. The object of the game is to defeat Melon Man and achieve the Sweetest Score. Good Luck and Have Fun.
