Hover Bovver is a 1983 maze video game written by Jeff Minter released for the Commodore 64.

[2] The background music is based on the folk tune "Country Gardens" by Percy Grainger, arranged by James Lisney.

The mower moves slowly at first, but accelerates rapidly if the joystick is held in a single direction, encouraging the player to optimise a route to include as many long, straight lines as possible.

The player's credit remaining are indicated by the name of the neighbour from whom the current mower has been borrowed: Jim, Tom and finally Alf.

Once this reaches zero, the dog begins to attack the mower, causing an immediate overheat if he manages to bite it.

This introduced new features: In 2022 Llamasoft released a version of Hover Bovver that runs under MAME.
