Super Methane Bros.

Super Methane Brothers is a video game similar to Taito's Bubble Bobble arcade game, released for Amiga in 1993 by Apache Software. Contemporary reviewers compared it to Namco's Tumblepop.

Gameplay
The protagonists of the game, Puff and Blow, each have a Methane Gas Gun which fires a cloud of immobilising gas. If this comes into contact with a bad guy, he will be absorbed into the gas and then float around the screen for a limited time. Bad guys are harmless in this state. Puff and Blow must suck the floating gas clouds into their guns and blast them out against a vertical surface. Bad guys then turn into bonuses which can be collected.

Reception and legacy
Super Methane Bros was received mixed with 72% in Amiga Power issue 39 from July 1994.
