Three scuba divers head for a treasure chest under the sea, guarded by the [[Octopus (character)|Octopus]]. The divers must be patient because the Octopus's arms are moving randomly. The player earns one [[point]] for every piece of treasure they grab and three points for returning the load to the boat. As the player progresses in the game, the Octopus's arms move faster. Game B is faster and more difficult. All three lives are restored once the player hits 200 and 500 points.

When the player gets three misses, they receive a [[Game Over]].
