Tobby Crane
December 10, 2004
Another game in the Toshiba series of Tobby Flash games, Tobby Crane puts you in control of the release switch of a factory crane trying to fill the pipes below with gifts for your girlfriend, Jelly. Simply click the mouse as the crane moves over the pipes to release the item, and try not to let Bull get his grimey hands on it. If Bull catches it, he will throw it anywhere he pleases. Toss a heart in the pipe where Jelly appears to increase your lives. Miss all the pipes and have your lives reduced by one.
For anyone fascinated with pachinko machines, this game mixes an element of chance with a little timing strategy for yet another cute Yoshio Ishii Flash game. Click.
Update: It seems that Toshiba has taken the Tobby games offline. =(
I love this game it rocks!!! I miss you Jossie!!! :-(
This game is awesome. It reminds me of Plinko from the Price is Right because the item bounces around and you cross your fingers that it'll land in the right slot. I play Tobby Crane at work when the boss man isn't looking!
The item popped up in between two pipes and landed on the wall between them, and now it's stuck, infinitely bouncing: it's been bouncing for 15 mins or so now. It's pretty funny that the makers didn't consider this.
This is such a cute game...I really love the pink too
This one is actually in my favorites, mainly because it's so cute and fun. I had read Greg's post before but never has it happened to me... until now... lol. It's not actually stuck between two pipes - it's a bone that landed exactly center on a wall between two pipes, and now is just stick spinning and bouncing around on it. =p It's kinda funny, but I wouldn't fuss too much about him fixing it, really. First time it's happened in months of playing.
You can only get up to 9 lives, and if you release the heart right when it comes out to get into one of the first pipes (if the chick is there), it doesn't actually count... I think he may have changed this (I always get 9 lives before leaving lvl 1, I'm such a cheater), but not sure.
