What Mazie is

Mazie was released in 1988. It is available on Amstrad CPC only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Mazie is fast bat 'n' ball action with more fascinating features than you can shake a joystick at. For a start, you don't just fire at the bricks - they fire at you. Avalanches of bombs will wing their way toward you, the dreaded Yello will descend from jets flying over, and the red devil tumbles from its cage. All can have a seriously detrimental effect on your life! Then there are the capsules to be caught, some of which can give you a larger bat, or a plank over part of the holy grass, or a free life, or even a wipe screen. 36 screens with a more difficult big bonus version of each and every one - that's the marvel of Mazie.
