Bolo is a 1987 Breakout clone written for the Atari ST with the high resolution monochrome monitor. It was later remade for Macintosh and MS-DOS. Bolo was written by Meinolf Schneider, who wrote the Oxyd games. Bolo is in the same vein as Taito’s Arkanoid with numerous additions such as gravity, exploding bricks, and tunneling.
