One touch from any of these ghosts means loss of a life for Pac-Man.\n\nPac-Man can turn the tables on his pursuers by eating one of the four Power-Pills located around the maze. During this time, the ghosts turn blue, and Pac-Man can eat them for bonus points. This only lasts for a limited amount of time as the ghosts' eyes float back to their center box and regenerate to chase after Pac-Man again.\n\nSurvive a few rounds of gameplay, and be treated to

Furthermore, rocks are scattered throughout the earth, and you can use these rocks to squash them.

His way to the throne lies through the Sultan's lovely daughter. Jaffar kidnaps her and threatens to kill her if she refuses to marry him. Meanwhile, the man the Princess loves is thrown into the dungeon. He has only one hour to escape from his prison, defeat the guards on his way, and stop Jaffar before the terrible marriage takes place.\n\nPrince of Persia is a 2D platformer that is commonly regarded as a progenitor of the cinematic platformer genre. Rather than following the more common jump-and-run mechanics, it focuses on careful advancement through fairly complex levels, emphasizing the protagonist's vulnerability and survival aspect. Rotoscoping technique is used to give more realism to the animation of the characters' movements.\n\nThe protagonist must avoid deadly traps, solve some simple jumping and environmental puzzles (such as stepping on pressure plates to raise portcullis), and engage in sword fights with the guards. The player character has an infinite amount of lives, but has to restart at the beginning of a level each time he dies, and must complete the game within an hour. The hero starts with three units of health, which can be replenished with small health potions or permanently increased with large jars.\n\nThe Game Boy Color and SNES versions of the game feature additional levels and new enemies. The Genesis version has a new intro, an altered set of graphics and four new levels.", + "game_id": 196, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 30, + "genre_name": "Puzzle elements" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 133, + "genre_name": "Fixed / flip-screen" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 206, + "genre_name": "Middle East" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 223, + "genre_name": "Regional differences" + } + ], + "moby_score": 4.1, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/prince-of-persia", + "num_votes": 569, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1989-10-03", + "platform_id": 31, + "platform_name": "Apple II" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 2, + "platform_name": "DOS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 19, + "platform_name": "Amiga" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 24, + "platform_name": "Atari ST" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 60, + "platform_name": "Amstrad CPC" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 120, + "platform_name": "SAM Coupé" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990-07-20", + "platform_id": 95, + "platform_name": "PC-98" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991-04-30", + "platform_id": 106, + "platform_name": "Sharp X68000" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991-11-08", + "platform_id": 45, + "platform_name": "TurboGrafx CD" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 20, + "platform_name": "SEGA CD" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 25, + "platform_name": "Game Gear" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 26, + "platform_name": "SEGA Master System" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 74, + "platform_name": "Macintosh" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992-01", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992-06", + "platform_id": 102, + "platform_name": "FM Towns" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992-07-03", + "platform_id": 15, + "platform_name": "SNES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992-11", + "platform_id": 22, + "platform_name": "NES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 16, + "platform_name": "Genesis" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1999-04-15", + "platform_id": 11, + "platform_name": "Game Boy Color" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2010-05-28", + "platform_id": 86, + "platform_name": "iPhone" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2010-05-28", + "platform_id": 96, + "platform_name": "iPad" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2012-01-19", + "platform_id": 82, + "platform_name": "Wii" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2012-01-19", + "platform_id": 101, + "platform_name": "Nintendo 3DS" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 1023, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/313704-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Apple II" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/313704-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 384, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/266885-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/266885-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 560 + }, + { + "caption": "Intro (1)", + "height": 384, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/266886-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-screenshot-intro-1.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/266886-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-screenshot-intro-1.jpg", + "width": 560 + }, + { + "caption": "Intro (2)", + "height": 384, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/266887-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-screenshot-intro-2.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/266887-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-screenshot-intro-2.jpg", + "width": 560 + }, + { + "caption": "Intro (3)", + "height": 384, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/266888-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-screenshot-intro-3.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/266888-prince-of-persia-apple-ii-screenshot-intro-3.jpg", + "width": 560 + } + ], + "title": "Prince of Persia" + }, + { + "description": "In the international edition of Lagaf: Les Aventures de Moktar -

As their manager, it is your job to transform their fortunes. As well as the league system, which consists of 2 8-team divisions and challenges you to advance to the top, there are also 2 cup tournaments, one of which is played out over 2 'legs' with the aggregate score deciding who progresses.\n\nYou can play the matches as well, which is the real meat of the game. They consist of 2 90-second periods, and the gameplay is futuristic, fast and frantic, with heavy tackling encouraged to retrieve the ball. Power-ups and tokens appear on the pitch, including ones to make your players extra-tough or freeze the opponents.\n\nThe sides of the pitch each include a score multiplier, which you can run the ball through to increase the value of your scoring - the opposition can sometimes immediately grab the ball and nullify this. There are also 5 stars which are worth 2 points each if you hit them (more if you have the multiplier activated), but these can also be cancelled out by the opposition hitting the same star, and their points values only become set after the half. Next to the stars there are 'portals' which throw the ball out the opposite side of the pitch, in the direction it was going.\n\nYou get money for the results, and by collecting the silver tokens which appear on the pitch at random intervals. Between each match you can spend these either on improving your existing players as far as they can go, or on buying better ones and fitting them into the team. Your original players can only be improved to a certain extent, so remembering where your signed players are and making use of them is important.\n\nA variety of tokens also appear during the match, some of which boost your team's power for a short period of time, and one freezes the opposition.", + "game_id": 273, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 5, + "genre_name": "Sports" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 8, + "genre_name": "Sci-fi / futuristic" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.6, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/speedball-2-brutal-deluxe", + "num_votes": 180, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 19, + "platform_name": "Amiga" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 24, + "platform_name": "Atari ST" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 2, + "platform_name": "DOS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 16, + "platform_name": "Genesis" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 27, + "platform_name": "Commodore 64" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 26, + "platform_name": "SEGA Master System" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1994", + "platform_id": 117, + "platform_name": "Acorn 32-bit" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1995", + "platform_id": 56, + "platform_name": "Amiga CD32" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2001", + "platform_id": 12, + "platform_name": "Game Boy Advance" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2002-07-15", + "platform_id": 66, + "platform_name": "Windows Mobile" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2005-08-17", + "platform_id": 64, + "platform_name": "J2ME" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2007-10-17", + "platform_id": 69, + "platform_name": "Xbox 360" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2013-05-03", + "platform_id": 90, + "platform_name": "BlackBerry" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2019-07-01", + "platform_id": 286, + "platform_name": "Antstream" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 688, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/24158-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Amiga" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/24158-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 567 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/73500-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/73500-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "Intro sequence", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/116347-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-screenshot-intro-sequence.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/116347-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-screenshot-intro-sequence.jpg", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "Main menu", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/73503-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-screenshot-main-menu.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/73503-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-screenshot-main-menu.jpg", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "Managing players", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/117249-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-screenshot-managing-players.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/117249-speedball-2-brutal-deluxe-amiga-screenshot-managing-players.jpg", + "width": 320 + } + ], + "title": "Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe" + }, + { + "description": "Xenon 2: Megablast is a vertically scrolling space shooter, in which you have to pass several levels, filled with waves of enemies, that all end with a level boss creature.

The worm can crawl left and right or jump. However, there is a time limit to make a move; also, if the worm falls from a great height, it loses health and the turn ends immediately; and if a worm falls into water or offscreen, it dies. Each turn, a worm can also make a single attack: the player can aim up and down, choose a weapon and then fire it. After attacking, the turn ends. \n\nThere's a lot of weapons available - the standard ones as bazookas (which is affected by the (random) wind settings and gravity) and grenades. The others include a Fire Punch, dynamite, air strikes, and utilities such as ropes and girders.\n\nThere are 10 styles of terrain, ranging from forests and deserts to Candy land and the moon (complete with affected gravity).

Starting at the back of the pack the objective is always to finish first on a linear course, overtaking the other bikers. This is achieved by driving very well or by playing it dirty, knocking opponents of their bikes using clubs, crowbars or your bare hands. The other racers fight back in a similar fashion and there are also hazards. All the races take place on the regular road with normal traffic (in both directions) and the cops, as well as occasional oil slicks and stray cows.\n\nBy winning races you can get promoted to a stronger division and earn cash with which you can buy a better bike.

Shang was accompanied by Prince Goro, a warrior of the Shokan race (a four-armed half-human / half-dragon). Knowing that if ten tournaments in a row were won by the Outworld champion, the Earth Realm would be conquered by evil and fall into darkness, Shang entered Goro in the tournament and had him defeat the great Kung Lao. Goro has been reigning supreme as the undefeated fighting champion for five hundred years now. As the last tournament required draws near, Raiden, Thunder God and protector of the Earth Realm, enacts a plan to tip the scales in the humans' favor, Seven fighters step into the arena on Shang Tsung's mysterious island: Shaolin warrior Liu Kang, Special Forces operative Sonya Blade, the mercenary thug Kano, fame-seeking actor Johnny Cage, the ice-wielding Lin Kuei warrior Sub-Zero and his undead adversary Scorpion, and Raiden himself.\n\nMortal Kombat is a side-scrolling fighting game. Fighting is set as one-on-one combat, allowing each player to perform a variety of punches, kicks, and special moves in order to defeat their opponent. When the opponent faces their second round loss, the winner can perform a finishing move called a \"Fatality\" on the loser. The Fatality is a move unique to each fighter that graphically kills the loser in a blood-soaked finale.\n\nMortal Kombat began its life as a 2-player arcade title.

Sometimes there is inhabitable land in sight, sometimes not. To get a chance to win, you must change the landscape, creating flat land for your followers to build on. The more followers you have, the more powerful you will be, so take care of them. Build as fast as you can, because the other god is doing the same.\n\nWhen you have enough followers, you can make the leader of your people into a hero. He will then go around the land you have built, literally taking strength from the people into himself, and working his way toward the enemy. When he gets there, he will engage in holy warfare upon your enemy's people. He will burn; he will kill. And he won't stop until they're all dead... or he is.\n\nBut you don't have to let your people have all the fun; the gods have other tools as well. You can drown your enemies one at a time with your land lowering powers, submerge their towns in swamps, or raise a volcano in the middle of their best farmland. Even better, you can flood the land and drain all the people who didn't build on high ground. \n\nAnd when you win, you'll have 500 more worlds to conquer.

"Starting out with just a basic Lamborghini and $6000, your aim is to rise to the top of the 4 divisions of racing through success on 60 race tracks across The United States. In each division there are 20 rival racers, up to 3 of which compete in each race at a time.\n\nThe races also feature lots of local drivers (who can take crucial positions away from you and the other championship drivers), Sunday drivers going at normal speed, and police. Before each race you will be told of the quality of the locals and the likelihood of police presence.\n\nWhen police are in the area, speeding beyond 110 km/h could see you branded as an offender, at which point the police will try to ram you off the road, Chase H.Q.-style. You can attempt to reach the end of the race despite this damage (which eventually hampers your speed) or simply pull over and accept a fine and the loss of race points. If the police subsequently stop you, the fine is heavier.\n\nEach race costs money to enter and your earnings can be boosted by betting on the results with the other championship drivers. If one of you wins, each driver gives you either the amount they bet or the amount you bet, whichever is lower. If a local wins you get your stake back.\n\nLots of power-ups can be bought along the way, including tires, radar jammers, engine improvements and nitro boosts. To move up a division you must take the Divisional Challenge, a one-off trek through a tough section within the time limit.

The enemies must be cleared from a level to go to the next one. With one player controlling Bub and the other controlling Bob, the player can jump and collect items for points (such as fruit). The real power Bub and Bob have however is the ability to blow bubbles. These bubbles can be as platforms to leap on, or to trap enemies. Enemies trapped in a bubble must be popped by jumping into them, wherein they'll turn to fruit. Additionally, power-ups sometimes float by in bubbles. They include lightning, which flies out horizontally at enemies, and water, which drags the player and enemies straight down flowing over platforms. Taking too long to complete any level will summon Baron Von Blubba, who will float around the screen trying to destroy the player.\n\nThe NES version has a few extra stages bringing the total number of stages to 112. The Sharp X68000 version contains a hidden minigame called Sybubblun. It contains a set of 20 original difficult levels with the game being reskinned with a Syvalion theme.\n", + "game_id": 787, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 9, + "genre_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 133, + "genre_name": "Fixed / flip-screen" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.9, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/bubble-bobble", + "num_votes": 321, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1986", + "platform_id": 143, + "platform_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 19, + "platform_name": "Amiga" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 24, + "platform_name": "Atari ST" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 27, + "platform_name": "Commodore 64" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 57, + "platform_name": "MSX" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 60, + "platform_name": "Amstrad CPC" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987-10", + "platform_id": 41, + "platform_name": "ZX Spectrum" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987-10-30", + "platform_id": 22, + "platform_name": "NES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1988", + "platform_id": 2, + "platform_name": "DOS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1989-07", + "platform_id": 31, + "platform_name": "Apple II" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 102, + "platform_name": "FM Towns" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990-03-09", + "platform_id": 106, + "platform_name": "Sharp X68000" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990-12-07", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1994", + "platform_id": 25, + "platform_name": "Game Gear" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2004-02-19", + "platform_id": 3, + "platform_name": "Windows" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2006", + "platform_id": 64, + "platform_name": "J2ME" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2007-11-23", + "platform_id": 82, + "platform_name": "Wii" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2013-10-16", + "platform_id": 101, + "platform_name": "Nintendo 3DS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2014-01-29", + "platform_id": 132, + "platform_name": "Wii U" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2016-03-15", + "platform_id": 141, + "platform_name": "PlayStation 4" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 1045, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/22198-bubble-bobble-commodore-64-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Commodore 64" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/22198-bubble-bobble-commodore-64-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/653254-bubble-bobble-arcade-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/653254-bubble-bobble-arcade-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Intro", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/653255-bubble-bobble-arcade-screenshot-intro.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/653255-bubble-bobble-arcade-screenshot-intro.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "First level", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/653256-bubble-bobble-arcade-screenshot-first-level.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/653256-bubble-bobble-arcade-screenshot-first-level.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Second level", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/653257-bubble-bobble-arcade-screenshot-second-level.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/653257-bubble-bobble-arcade-screenshot-second-level.jpg", + "width": 256 + } + ], + "title": "Bubble Bobble" + }, + { + "description": "Some time after Operation Desert Strike, Ibn Kilbaba, son of Kilbaba S.R, threatens to annihilate America.

A secondary weapon (missile launchers in the future, shotguns in the present) has limited ammo but deals heavy damage. Powerups inside the game world include secondary weapon ammo and coolant for the machine guns, and are shot to be collected.\n\nTerminator 2: Judgment Day, renamed T2: The Arcade Game for home conversions, features seven levels based on specific scenes or general concepts in the film. The first four levels act as a prelude, as the player guns down waves of metal Terminators across a post-apocalyptic Battlefield, a besieged Human Hideout, and through the security checkpoints of the enemy supercomputer SkyNet. After destroying the computer, players travel back in time to protect John and Sarah Connor, while also destroying every scrap of SkyNet research at the headquarters of its manufacturer. From there, players must fend off the indestructible T-1000 until the final showdown in the Steel Mill.\n\nAssets from the movie are used when possible, such as voice clips from Arnold Schwarzenegger, and close-up digital stills of Robert Patrick for the final battle against the T-1000.

The Apache is equipped with three weapon types: a machine gun and two types of missiles of different strength. During the missions, the player must beware anti-aircraft guns, missile launchers and tanks, outmaneuvering enemy fire or destroying the enemy weaponry. The Apache is destroyed if its fuel runs out, or if the armor (functioning as health) is completely depleted. However, armor can be replenished by bringing back MIA soldiers and prisoners of war back to the landing zone. There are also fuel, ammo and armor pickups available on the field.

Frogger must use the arrangement of logs, turtles (which are only there for a short time) and alligators (but stay away from their faces), and then jump into one of the open home-cells, ideally one containing a fly for extra points.

describing how the Lemmings have split into 12 distinct tribes, each of which has their own landscape and their own cultural identity - they include Egyptian, Circus and Highland. However, Lemming Island is now in danger, and you must complete 10 levels for each tribe in order for them to reunite and reassemble the Talisman from the 12 pieces.\n\nAcross the 120 levels there are over 60 skills, although no more than 10 are in use on each screen. The Classic tribe has the ones from the original and is perhaps the best option for first-time players. \n\nThe others range from digging methods such as a scooper (diagonally downwards) and club basher (horizontal), building skills such as a planter (takes time to produce the desired raise to the landscape) and a sand pourer, and various methods of movement including a Pole-Vaulter and a Skater (the only Lemmings who can cross ice). Some of these are only subtly different to others, and their exact uses are unclear, but there are 4 Trainer levels where you can select any combination of skills and experiment.\n\nUnlike the first game, the player is rewarded for saving as many Lemmings as possible, rather than simply passing or failing. The ultimate aim is to save all 60 Lemmings through all levels, thereby earning a Gold Medal for that tribe - Silver and Bronze are also on offer. The player can also go back over levels in the hope of saving more Lems. \n\nBecause there are 12 tribes, and the player can switch between them at any point, you have to be stuck 12 times in order to be unable to progress.

The pieces are offered in random order, and there are seven different types - straight lines going horizontally or vertically, corners rotating in each of the four directions, and cross-over pieces which carry the flooz straight across horizontally and vertically. Each of these can be entered from either side. When the flooz hits a gap, or a piece which the previous piece can't flow into, the pipe is finished.\n\nBefore the flooz starts flowing from its randomly-selected starting position, the player has several seconds to start placing pieces. They can be put down anywhere. However a situation that can often occur is there will be a long and complex piping arrangement set up, yet a gap somewhere remains to be filled. Players are able to replace a piece with another in the same square (to make it easier to flow the flooz that way), but for a slight scoring penalty.\n\nBonuses are awarded for looping the flooz through both sides of at least 5 cross-over pieces, or passing the flooz through every square on the screen. Later levels have some squares on the grid blocked off, a few gaps in the side-wall (allowing flooz to thread to the other side of the screen).

It involves racing miniatures representing particular vehicle types across a particular terrain found around the house. The Sports Cars race on the desktop, 4x4s in the sandpit, Formula 1 cars on a snooker table, and so on.\n\nThese levels were packed with variation. The Snooker tables has the track painted on, although this is open to deviation (as are most levels), and had you racing through the pockets and across the rim of the table. Tanks raced as well, with the chance of shooting out your opponent if they got directly in front of you. The desktop levels include binders to jump across, pencil-sharpeners to avoid, and lots of visual jokes in the open homework.\n\nViewed from overhead with small graphics, the races include up to 4 cars. In one player challenge mode you race through the 21 tracks in a set order, selecting your 3 opponents as you go along (adding a fair amount of strategy - ideally you should aim to eliminate the better CPU cars early on), eliminating one after every third race (assuming that you can finish in the top 2 of a race within your 3 lives). If you win 3 races in a row without using a continue you get a time-trial race which can earn you an extra life.\n\nThe real innovation of the game was in the multiplayer modes. You started with 4 points each, and when one car gets far enough ahead to force the other car off-screen, the slider moves in their favour. Once it reached the end (which involved beating them 4 times more than they beat you) you win the level, although if 3 laps were completed, the person leading at that point is declared the winner - with a sudden death play off if scores are level. 9 of the tracks are available in this mode, although you can also play this Head to Head system as a 1-player game across all the tracks.", + "game_id": 3887, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 6, + "genre_name": "Racing / driving" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.5, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/micro-machines", + "num_votes": 116, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 22, + "platform_name": "NES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 16, + "platform_name": "Genesis" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 19, + "platform_name": "Amiga" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 25, + "platform_name": "Game Gear" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 26, + "platform_name": "SEGA Master System" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1994", + "platform_id": 2, + "platform_name": "DOS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1994", + "platform_id": 15, + "platform_name": "SNES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1995", + "platform_id": 73, + "platform_name": "CD-i" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1995-01", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 1016, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/14469-micro-machines-nes-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "NES" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/14469-micro-machines-nes-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 725 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 480, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/31392-micro-machines-nes-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/31392-micro-machines-nes-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 640 + }, + { + "caption": "Choose a character", + "height": 480, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/31393-micro-machines-nes-screenshot-choose-a-character.jpg", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/31393-micro-machines-nes-screenshot-choose-a-character.jpg", + "width": 640 + }, + { + "caption": "Racing in the bath tub", + "height": 480, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/31394-micro-machines-nes-screenshot-racing-in-the-bath-tub.jpg", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/31394-micro-machines-nes-screenshot-racing-in-the-bath-tub.jpg", + "width": 640 + }, + { + "caption": "Racing on the kitchen table", + "height": 480, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/31395-micro-machines-nes-screenshot-racing-on-the-kitchen-table.jpg", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/31395-micro-machines-nes-screenshot-racing-on-the-kitchen-table.jpg", + "width": 640 + } + ], + "title": "Micro Machines" + }, + { + "description": "You're a paper boy.

Link is told to \"awaken the wind fish and all will be answered,\" so Link sets out on another quest.\n\nPlay is mostly similar to the SNES game with a top down perspective. However, there are short sections in dungeons where the game switches to a side-scrolling view with platforming elements. Link must go onto each of the 7 temples to retrieve a musical instrument that will help awaken the Wind Fish. Along the way, Link must search the land and uncover hidden treasures and items that will allow him to progress on his journey.

He has heard that the pirates of Kitchen Island have a golden Statue of Princess Toadstool that's worth a king's ransom! Wario figures that if he swipes the Princess' statue for himself, as well as all the other loot the pirates have hoarded, he'll have more than enough cash for a castle that's even bigger and better than Mario's!\n\nWario Land: Super Mario Land 3 is different from previous games in the series in that you control the brutish and greedy Wario. Even when small, Wario can break most bricks with a punch, and some enemies are so weak to him that they'll just be pushed aside! Wario has a body slam attack that he can use to destroy enemies, and he can also pick them up and throw them at his foes. If that wasn't enough, there are three different power ups that Wario can find. The Bull Hat lets him plough through bricks in a single hit, ram his horns into the ceiling to hold onto it, and butt stomp to stun all enemies. The Jet Hat allows him to fly horizontally for a short period of time, and increases his jump height and speed. Finally, the Dragon Hat allows him to breathe a long stream of fire for a short period of time.\n\nTo suit Wario's greedy nature, the game revolves around money. Throughout the stages, you can earn coins by grabbing them floating in the air, punching them out of bricks, or by body slamming into foes and then collecting the coins they drop. You can also find hidden treasures buried deep within some levels by finding a key and then throwing it at the skull door to unlock it. Once Wario reaches the end of a level, he usually needs to pay a toll to get the end-of-level door to open. Pressing Up on the Control Pad and B pulls out a coin worth 10 coins, which you must throw at the door. Once the door opens, you can exit and the level is complete. Before you finish each level, you can choose to play a mini-game that doubles or halves the amount of coins you have, with a 50/50 chance. You get three tries, and can choose to leave whenever you wish...so don't get too greedy!", + "game_id": 4288, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 9, + "genre_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 4, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/wario-land-super-mario-land-3", + "num_votes": 63, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1994-01-21", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2011-12-14", + "platform_id": 101, + "platform_name": "Nintendo 3DS" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 802, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/21713-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/21713-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/22836-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/22836-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.gif", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Collect Hearts", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/22837-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-screenshot-collect-hearts.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/22837-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-screenshot-collect-hearts.gif", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Bash through walls", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/22838-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-screenshot-bash-through.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/22838-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-screenshot-bash-through.gif", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Swimming", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/22839-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-screenshot-swimming.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/22839-wario-land-super-mario-land-3-game-boy-screenshot-swimming.gif", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3" + }, + { + "description": "Second in the Game Boy's line of Mario games, this one takes the evolutionary steps that Super Mario 3 for the NES took with it's predecessors.

While it is impossible to roam the stages freely, quite often the player can choose to go one way or another and in doing so skip some areas or find valuable items, collecting all of which will unlock the best ending. Sonia also possesses special power called Burning mode: once in a level (and once per life) she can boost her speed and attack power and become invincible for a short period of time. \n\nEach of the game's bosses leaves behind an orb with a Soul weapon inside. Sonia can collect five of these weapons: Wind, Ice, Flame, Saint and Magic. Similar to previous games these are activated by pressing up+attack, and require a certain number of hearts. The player can switch to any Soul Power at any moment at a weapon select screen.

Similar to Tetris, sets of blocks fall into the bin that contain any two of the following types:\n\nStar Blocks: The most important block, as all of the game types rely on it. Sandwich these blocks between two Friend Blocks either horizontally or vertically, and they will be cleared. The more stars you clear, the higher the score.\n\nFriend Blocks: These blocks have pictures of Kirby's friends - Rick the Hamster, Kine the Fish, and Coo the Owl (all from Kirby's Dream Land 2) - on them. Match two of each to clear them from the screen. Any Star Blocks between the two character blocks will also be cleared.\n\nBomb Blocks: Sandwich a Bomb Block in between two Friend Blocks, and the bomb will explode, removing all blocks in the same row. \n\nHard Blocks: You have to clear these blocks twice to clear them from the screen. Clear them once and they transform into an ordinary Star Block, and then can be removed in the normal way.\n\nThe game also features a 'chain' system that rewards you for clearing blocks which then clear other blocks.

These daimyos would often go to war with each other. Many dreamt of conquering the land, becoming the Shogun and ruling the entire country. One of those daimyos was the ambitious Nobunaga Oda, a merciless ruler and a renowned strategist. Players take on the role of Nobunaga Oda or one of many other daimyos to try to conquer Japan. \n\nNobunaga's Ambition is a turn-based strategy game which can be played in different modes. Gameplay is similar to Koei's better known Romance of the Three Kingdoms game. Players begin by selecting either a 17 regions scenario or a larger 50 scenario. Then, the player must select a daimyo, each of which is rated attributes in several categories; Age, Health, Ambition, Luck, Charm and IQ. As the game progresses, these values change depending on events in the game. The age value represents a time limit of sorts, as an elderly daimyo becomes increasingly likely to die of old age or sickness.\n\nDuring each of turn (one per season), players can issue one of several commands from a menu. They include: Recruiting new soldiers, Training the army, Buying Weapons, Increasing Peasant morale, Forming alliances or Hiring Ninjas to bribe & assassinate. When one player attacks another, there is a war fought over the defender's region. Battles are fought in an overhead-view hex battle map. Each player takes turn moving units and issuing orders, which include attack, move, bribe and surrender. The goal is to defeat all of the enemy units (or force them into surrender). Army units each have a certain weakness against other types of enemies, and are also affected by the terrain.

Two players can play, but only alternating, not simultaneously.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the sports games, there are two carnival games: A shooting gallery, and a catch-the-falling-object game.", + "game_id": 5884, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 5, + "genre_name": "Sports" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 31, + "genre_name": "Football (American)" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 32, + "genre_name": "Baseball" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 33, + "genre_name": "Basketball" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 35, + "genre_name": "Golf" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 37, + "genre_name": "Tennis" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 49, + "genre_name": "Football (European) / Soccer" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + } + ], + "moby_score": 2.8, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports", + "num_votes": 6, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1994-11-25", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/23712-tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports-game-boy-screenshot-title.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/23712-tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports-game-boy-screenshot-title.gif", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Game Mode Select", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/23713-tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports-game-boy-screenshot-game.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/23713-tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports-game-boy-screenshot-game.gif", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Baseball", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/23714-tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports-game-boy-screenshot-baseball.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/23714-tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports-game-boy-screenshot-baseball.gif", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Football", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/23715-tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports-game-boy-screenshot-football.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/23715-tiny-toon-adventures-wacky-sports-game-boy-screenshot-football.gif", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Tiny Toon Adventures: Wacky Sports" + }, + { + "description": "This is the second Spider-Man adventure to land on the Game Boy.

You control the R-9 spaceship as it launches a last-ditch effort to repel the evil Bydo empire.\n\nThe R-9 comes equipped as standard with a small gun which can only take down the smallest of enemies without firing several shots. By holding down the fire button, it can be loaded up so as to release a large burst of energy, eliminating all but the strongest enemies in its path. From time to time, pods will come flying in your direction. Upon being shot, they release an upgrade. The first one will invariably be the one called \"The Force\", which is a weapons pod that clings either to the front or the back of your ship, absorbing any enemy bullets or acting as a bumper with which you can fly head-on into them. You can also use it as an offensive weapon by firing it and pulling it back in. Mastering the Force is vital to surviving in R-Type, since it must be used both as protection against bullet clusters, as a remote controlled cannon, and in order to clear the screen from obstacles. Other upgrades give you target-seeking missiles or a bigger main gun. Different gun types, differentiated by their colour, serve different purposes. The blue one sends laser beams bouncing across the screen (good for tunnels), the red one fires straight ahead, and the yellow one follows any walls it may encounter (good for artillery emplacements).\n\nThe stages of R-Type are made in an organic style, certainly inspired by H. R. Giger's artwork for the Alien movies. When it came out, it was considered trend-setting since it broke off from the stereotypical sci-fi mould of other shoot'em'ups. In part, the levels themselves are your enemy, which is exemplified by the fourth, where spider-like creatures weave webs that cover the screen and block your path, or levels with intricate tunnel systems.

Player graphics are large and colorful, which is made possible by limiting the number of players to nine per team. Animated cut-scenes are shown following touchdowns and at half-time, and crowds are shown filling the endzone seats.\r\n\r\nThere are four plays to choose from on offense--usually two runs and two passes. The player takes control of the quarterback before the snap and then either hands off to the running back or works through his receiver progression from the top to the bottom of the screen. Defense consists of trying to guess which offensive play the opponent will select and then taking control of one of the defensive players before the snap. A very simple power meter system is used for kicking field goals, extra points, and punts.\r\n\r\nThere are no game or season stats and there is no way to save your season, but there is a password feature allowing you to resume tournament play where you left off.

When all asteroids are destroyed, the player can then move on to the next round. In addition to the asteroids, the player will also face an Alien Robot Saucer which shoots randomly across the screen.\n\nThe player using the controller may rotate the ship (left or right) in any direction or move the ship forward. Shots will be fired according to the ship's direction. The player has three reserved ships available to replace a destroyed spaceship. The spaceship is destroyed if an asteroid collides with the spaceship or is shot by an Alien Robot Saucer. Additionally, the player may opt to use the hyperspace warp to avoid a collision. The warp, however, may also destroy the spaceship in the process.\n\nAsteroids when shot will break-up into smaller pieces or be destroyed. There are three types of asteroids: large asteroids, medium asteroids, and small asteroids. Large asteroids and medium asteroids when shot will break-up into two smaller sized asteroids. Small asteroids when shot will be destroyed. \n\nAlien Robot Saucers come in two sizes: small and large. Both use photon lasers to shoot and will explode when destroyed. Alien Robot Saucers will not appear at the Novice Level.\n\nGame Difficulty and Variations

Secondly, Mr. Do is armed with a power ball. This can be thrown to destroy an enemy. Mr. Do has only one power ball, though, so he will need to wait for it to return to him before it can be used again. From time to time an alpha monster will appear on the screen bearing one of the letters in EXTRA. If you use the power ball to destroy an alpha monster you earn that letter; when you've earned the complete word EXTRA you receive an extra life.

However, it is not a full-fledged RPG like Zelda II, since it lacks player-dependent character-building. The game world consists of interconnected, maze-like side-scrolling sections that include both towns and hostile areas where Orpheus fights his way through the minions of Hades. There are various items one must get to continue to the next location, including swords, shields and crystals. There are three fragments of love hidden around; Orpheus has to find them before he can enter Tartarus and fight Hades to save his beloved Helene.\n\nThe game sometimes references specific Greek myths, but often interprets them liberally (i.e. Orpheus is a warrior rather than a musician, his beloved one is Helene and not Eurydice, etc.).

The gameplay features an action/strategy part similar to Boulder Dash, and a question part. In the action part, you need to collect five question marks and enough Manna to open the exit of the maze-like screens. There are a variety of boulders, walls, dirt, and other obstacles in the way. Some obstacles can be destroyed when moses uses his staff to say the word of god, other obstacles can be pushed out of the way, and some you must find a way around. You need to be careful when navigating around the screens, if you cause any boulders to fall and they land on you a life is lost. Also wandering about are a variety of enemies which can be destroyed or avoided, but will cost you one life if you get caught. When you find all the question marks and manna you need, the exit appears and you can move on to the question phase. Here you will be asked five multiple choice questions about the book of Exodus. Answering the questions correctly will reward you with bonuses, such as extra lives.", + "game_id": 10786, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 12, + "genre_name": "Educational" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 29, + "genre_name": "Game show / trivia / quiz" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Educational Categories", + "genre_category_id": 5, + "genre_id": 84, + "genre_name": "Religion" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 118, + "genre_name": "Puzzle" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Interface/Control", + "genre_category_id": 7, + "genre_id": 168, + "genre_name": "Direct control" + } + ], + "moby_score": 2.8, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land", + "num_votes": 13, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 22, + "platform_name": "NES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 2, + "platform_name": "DOS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 16, + "platform_name": "Genesis" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 1152, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/26358-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "NES" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/26358-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Wisdom Tree logo", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/52555-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-screenshot-wisdom-tree.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/52555-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-screenshot-wisdom-tree.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/52556-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/52556-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "The game introduction", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/52557-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-screenshot-the-game.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/52557-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-screenshot-the-game.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Collect question marks and Manna", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/52558-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-screenshot-collect.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/52558-exodus-journey-to-the-promised-land-nes-screenshot-collect.jpg", + "width": 256 + } + ], + "title": "Exodus: Journey to the Promised Land" + }, + { + "description": "You are Agent 17 (codename: \"Otto\"). Your mission is to secure all top secret documents from a security building and escape in the getaway car, located in the basement of the building.\n\nEnemies spies are scattered throughout the 30-floor building and they have only one mission: execute Agent 17 at all costs. There are several ways in which Agent 17 can kill them:Whenever a light has been dropped, the hallways will be dark for a short period of time, making the enemy spies harder to see. The same holds true for hallways that are already dark.\n\nWhile Otto is in an elevator, he will have complete control of it by moving up or down. Agent 17 can still get killed if he's already in an elevator if a bullet's trajectory is aimed at it.. When Otto is not in an elevator, it will move from floor to floor automatically, even when enemy spies are in it. Otto is able to leap over the elevator gaps, but he must be as close to the edge as possible without falling off in order to make the jump safely. If there is an elevator cable in the way, however, it will block him, causing him to fall. \n\nJust because the game is called Elevator Action doesn't mean that elevators are the only means of travel. There are also escalators which you can ride up or down, useful if you want to avoid gunfire and don't have time to jump.\n\nOtto must go into the rooms with red doors to collect the top secret documents. If he tries to get to his car without getting all the documents, he cannot escape and must go back and collect the remaining documents. Once he has all the documents and drives away, he then proceeds to the next building.\n\nIf Otto takes too much time to collect the documents, the alarm will go off, and he will have trouble controlling the elevators, which will take time to react. Bad guys will be especially aggressive. The alarm doesn't go off when Otto loses a life, it only resets after finishing a building. Besides ducking, bad guys may also drop themselves and lay flat on the floor. It's virtually impossible for Otto to shoot bad guys when they do this. Also, Otto cannot duck when in an elevator.", + "game_id": 10914, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 22, + "genre_name": "Shooter" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Narrative Theme/Topic", + "genre_category_id": 8, + "genre_id": 93, + "genre_name": "Spy / espionage" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 99, + "genre_name": "Stealth" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/elevator-action", + "num_votes": 70, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1983", + "platform_id": 143, + "platform_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1985", + "platform_id": 57, + "platform_name": "MSX" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1985", + "platform_id": 114, + "platform_name": "SG-1000" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1985-06-28", + "platform_id": 22, + "platform_name": "NES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1986", + "platform_id": 121, + "platform_name": "Sharp X1" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1986-03", + "platform_id": 94, + "platform_name": "PC-88" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1986-05", + "platform_id": 126, + "platform_name": "FM-7" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 27, + "platform_name": "Commodore 64" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 41, + "platform_name": "ZX Spectrum" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 60, + "platform_name": "Amstrad CPC" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2001-08-11", + "platform_id": 28, + "platform_name": "Atari 2600" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2004-05-14", + "platform_id": 3, + "platform_name": "Windows" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2007-03-05", + "platform_id": 82, + "platform_name": "Wii" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2014-02-19", + "platform_id": 132, + "platform_name": "Wii U" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2014-03-12", + "platform_id": 101, + "platform_name": "Nintendo 3DS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2017-11-09", + "platform_id": 141, + "platform_name": "PlayStation 4" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2019-03-14", + "platform_id": 203, + "platform_name": "Nintendo Switch" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 592, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/307076-elevator-action-msx-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "MSX" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/307076-elevator-action-msx-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 401 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen.", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/665218-elevator-action-arcade-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/665218-elevator-action-arcade-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Slide into action.", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/665219-elevator-action-arcade-screenshot-slide-into-action.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/665219-elevator-action-arcade-screenshot-slide-into-action.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Riding the elevator.", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/665220-elevator-action-arcade-screenshot-riding-the-elevator.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/665220-elevator-action-arcade-screenshot-riding-the-elevator.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Shot the lights out.", + "height": 224, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/665221-elevator-action-arcade-screenshot-shot-the-lights-out.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/665221-elevator-action-arcade-screenshot-shot-the-lights-out.jpg", + "width": 256 + } + ], + "title": "Elevator Action" + }, + { + "description": "Revelations: The Demon Slayer is a side-game (gaiden) of the Megami Tensei (Megaten) universe.

After ten years in prison for a robbery of a government installation gone wrong, Eddie is released, intending to go straight and retire. Unfortunately, fate has other plans.\n\nYears ago, Leonardo Da Vinci created a machine with the intention of converting common lead into bronze for use on his commissioned sculpture of a horse. Da Vinci got the shock of his life when he found out the machine didn't convert lead to bronze... it converted it to gold. Knowing the ramifications of what the machine could do, Da Vinci broke the crystal that powered it into three pieces and hid them in three of his works: a miniature sculpture of a horse called the Sforza, his sketchbook and notebook called the Codex, and a miniature model of his helicopter design, hoping that they would never again see the light of day.\n\nUnfortunately, ultra-rich psychotic yuppies Darwin and Minerva Mayflower have found out about the machine and own one piece of the crystal. Planning to flood the market with gold and crush the global economy, they need the remaining crystal pieces and require Eddie's services. To force him to comply, they kidnap his best friend and partner Tommy \"Five-Tone\" Messina and threaten to have him killed unless Eddie fetches them. With no choice, Eddie will have to do the jobs, save his friend, and put an end to the Mayflowers' plot.\n\nFrom Rutherford's Auction House in New York, to the Vatican, and finally Castle Da Vinci in Italy, Eddie will have to dodge an odd assortment of enemies, from security guards and guard dogs, to janitors, crazed nuns, balloon-riding henchmen, paparazzi, and kids on bikes.

The top-down levels play more similar to other Skate Or Die games as gradients influence your driving while you are trying to avoid obstacles, enemies and deadly spikes.", + "game_id": 16330, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 5, + "genre_name": "Sports" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 52, + "genre_name": "Skateboarding" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.2, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/skate-or-die-bad-n-rad", + "num_votes": 12, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 758, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/56271-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/56271-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 732 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/97306-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/97306-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Stage select", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/97307-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-screenshot-stage-select.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/97307-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-screenshot-stage-select.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Stage 1 - defeating a punk", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/97308-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-screenshot-stage-1-defeating.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/97308-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-screenshot-stage-1-defeating.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "The first boss - to defeat him, jump on the balls he throws at you.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/97309-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-screenshot-the-first-boss-to.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/97309-skate-or-die-bad-n-rad-game-boy-screenshot-the-first-boss-to.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Skate or Die: Bad 'N Rad" + }, + { + "description": "Similar to Kung-Fu Master games for other platforms but with different levels, it is your job to fight your way through hordes of bad guys and ultimately kill the super-villain.

The bonus is added to your score when you lose a life, as in ordinary pinball.\r\n\r\nThe aim is to defeat each boss. To get to the boss you must perform a task on the top ordinary screen.

Combat takes place on the same screen as the exploration; monsters will also sometimes pursue the knight if he attempts to escape. Also contrary to roguelikes, none of the locations or items in the game is randomized.\n\nThe player can collect power stones and coins during the journey; the power stones increase the hero's strength, while the coins increase his hit points (health). Defeating enemies also yields experience points, which determine the amount of maximum HP the hero is able to receive.

A typical button masher, includes 10 events (100m sprint, 110m hurdles, pole vault, long jump, triple jump, javelin, high jump, discus, skeet and archery) and 32 countries around the world compete in custom or full Olympics, or just practice. Two players can compete head to head in the sprinting events, and a total of eight can play in the same game. Three difficulty levels allow competitive events for both rookies to veterans in the genre.\r\n\r\nSprinting events are a short and straight button mashing frenzy. 4 athletes compete simultaneously, the first winner advancing to the next round (two qualifiers and then the medal run). Only fast fingers and quick shotgun reaction can earn world record times. \r\n\r\nJumping events are a mix of shorter button mashing bursts combined with timely pressed jumps. From the straight forward high and long jump events (run and then set the jump angle) to the more elaborate triple jump (as the name suggests, three jumps must be carefully measured for world class results) and the complex pole vault, where a strong run must be followed by a sharp pole fixation and good a release upwards. Both long jump and triple jump have a first round composed by three jumps, the better eight progress into the second round, where they are given three more jumps. In the high jump and pole vault the competition continues until all athletes miss three consecutive jumps.\r\n\r\nThe throwing events (discus and javelin) work in the same fashion as the jumping events, although trickier to pull, as the setting of the angle must be followed by a timely release. Each player is entitled to three throws, the top eight allowed three more attempts.\r\n\r\nFinally, the shooting events. Archery is a three-round competition where the goal is to amass as many points as possible by shooting at the inner rings of the target.

The first experiments quickly increase Jobe's intelligence, and while after an accident Angelo stopped the experiments, The Shop, a secret agency overviewing Project 5, reinserted the drugs responsible for violent behaviour into the program and sped up the treatment. As Jobe starts to develop telekinetic powers, he starts to take revenge on those who abused him before he started the treatments, and plots to take over all computers in the world.\n\nWhile the CD version of the game (PC, Mega CD) is an interactive movie, both cartridge versions are platformers, the player taking control of Dr. Angelo or Carla Parkette (mother of Jobe's best friend) in typical side-scrolling shooting action. The player can collect better weapons or data discs, which after collecting a number of them allow to morph into the Virtual Suit, which gives protection against a first hit. The player visits several locations seen in the movie, such as the gas pump and the VSI headquarters. \n\nThe twists of the game are true-3D level connectors, based on the CG sequences of the movie, usually all involving avoiding obstacles (and the occasional shooting) at high speed in the VR world. There are four different (Virtual World, Cyber War, Cyber Run and Cyber Tube), each taking a slightly different approach (Virtual World is seen in first person, the objective being dodging obstacles such as trees and archs and reach the exit, Cyber War similar to Virtual World but with some shooting stops, Cyber Run is seen in third person and requires occasional shooting of obstacles, while Cyber Tube is a fast travel with plenty of enemies in a VR tunnel).", + "game_id": 20334, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 7, + "genre_name": "1st-person" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 9, + "genre_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 2, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/lawnmower-man_", + "num_votes": 18, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 15, + "platform_name": "SNES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1994", + "platform_id": 16, + "platform_name": "Genesis" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 790, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/89102-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/89102-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/140848-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/140848-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Level 1's story", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/163409-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-screenshot-level-1-s-story.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/163409-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-screenshot-level-1-s-story.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Shooting enemies", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/163410-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-screenshot-shooting-enemies.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/163410-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-screenshot-shooting-enemies.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Navigating cyberspace", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/163411-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-screenshot-navigating-cyberspace.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/163411-the-lawnmower-man-game-boy-screenshot-navigating-cyberspace.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "The Lawnmower Man" + }, + { + "description": "Muddy Mole's wife and seven kids have been kidnapped by the evil farmer, Jinbei!

One of the game's clever 'hooks' is that players can dig underground in each stage to find a completely different map than they do above ground, which can be used to get through otherwise impassable terrain.\r\n\r\nThe game also features a two player mode, where one player is Muddy, and the other is Jinbei.

However, as a thief enters the temple and breaks the casket, Zakdos is set free and murders all that are left of the clan of Colin except for a young boy named Mute. To make things worse, the Sword of Hope, that has sealed away an evil dragon, is also stolen. The player takes control of Prince Theo who, with the help of Mute and other characters, must stop Zakdos and retrieve the Sword of Hope before the dragon awakens.\n\nThe main difference between The Sword of Hope II and its predecessor\n is the fact that you have control over a party of up to three characters rather than controlling only prince Theo. Apart from that, both games play very similar. The world is seen from a first person perspective and your party can be moved by selecting an arrow that points in the desired direction. Commands such as \"look\", \"open\", \"hit\" etc. can be chosen from a menu to explore and manipulate the game-world, talk to NPCs or solve puzzles. When encountering enemies, you enter a turn-based battle mode in which you can attack, use items and magic or try to escape.

The first is starship combat: seen from the main screen of the Enterprise (both the -B or the -D version) you navigate the ship through space, firing phasers or photon torpedoes at enemies like Tholians, Klingons and Romulans. Another mode has you navigating the ship to its destination by flying through rectangles in space.\n\nOn away missions, the view switches to a top-down perspective where you control a single character and can fire your phaser at enemies.\n\nFinally, the game has two puzzle modes. In the first one, frequencies must be decoded: this is done by putting symbols into the right order. One can only guess the order at first, but after an attempt the game reveals how many of the selected symbols are part of the combination and how many are in the right place. Using logic, the right order can be determined, but there are only a limited number of tries.\n\nThe second puzzle mode is used to reroute power from one system to another. To do so, a path must be built on a grid for the energy to flow through. The path must be built out of randomly assigned pieces that don't always fit together, similar to the concept of Pipe Mania.", + "game_id": 21278, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 7, + "genre_name": "1st-person" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 8, + "genre_name": "Sci-fi / futuristic" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 118, + "genre_name": "Puzzle" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Vehicular Themes", + "genre_category_id": 11, + "genre_id": 151, + "genre_name": "Space flight" + } + ], + "moby_score": 1.7, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus", + "num_votes": 5, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1994", + "platform_id": 25, + "platform_name": "Game Gear" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1994-11", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 804, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/154725-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/154725-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/152919-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-gear-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/152919-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-gear-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Main menu", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/461312-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-gear-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/461312-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-gear-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Intro: Launch of the Enterprise-B", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/461313-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-gear-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/461313-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-gear-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Fighting spaceships", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/461314-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-gear-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/461314-star-trek-generations-beyond-the-nexus-game-gear-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Star Trek: Generations - Beyond the Nexus" + }, + { + "description": "A puzzle game where the main goal is to make loops!

It is up to the player to link them up in a loop form, then moving on to the next level. Pieces can be placed on any empty space on the grid, and rotated into one of the four main compass directions.\n\nAny pieces which are not part of the finished loop when a level is completed are left on the screen, so there is value in playing towards 2 distinct loops, to ensure that you have options depending on which pieces are drawn - unlike Pipe Dream there are no clues as to which pieces are coming next.\n\nThree play modes are available, two of which can be played with two players. Game A is freestyle - simply make loops, gaining extra points for size and style. \n\nGame B is about unlocking bonus boards of the game by reaching a certain score and uses a bonus multiplier method depending on loop difficulty.\n\nThe third mode of play begins with an already made loop and then removes random pieces of it, so the player has to put them back in when they appear again. It is essentially a memory test and logic puzzle of fitting the pieces back as one remembers - although placing a piece where it seems to fit is also often effective.", + "game_id": 21383, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 118, + "genre_name": "Puzzle" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.6, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/loopz", + "num_votes": 37, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 2, + "platform_name": "DOS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 19, + "platform_name": "Amiga" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 24, + "platform_name": "Atari ST" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 60, + "platform_name": "Amstrad CPC" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990-10", + "platform_id": 22, + "platform_name": "NES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 27, + "platform_name": "Commodore 64" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 41, + "platform_name": "ZX Spectrum" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 92, + "platform_name": "BBC Micro" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 93, + "platform_name": "Electron" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991-03", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991-06-21", + "platform_id": 95, + "platform_name": "PC-98" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991-06-21", + "platform_id": 106, + "platform_name": "Sharp X68000" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2004-08", + "platform_id": 18, + "platform_name": "Lynx" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2018-11-10", + "platform_id": 17, + "platform_name": "Jaguar" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 1097, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/72065-loopz-amiga-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Amiga" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/72065-loopz-amiga-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Ready to go", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/155721-loopz-atari-st-screenshot-ready-to-go.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/155721-loopz-atari-st-screenshot-ready-to-go.jpg", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "Main menu", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/155722-loopz-atari-st-screenshot-main-menu.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/155722-loopz-atari-st-screenshot-main-menu.jpg", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "Partial credits", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/155723-loopz-atari-st-screenshot-partial-credits.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/155723-loopz-atari-st-screenshot-partial-credits.jpg", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "Partial scores", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/155724-loopz-atari-st-screenshot-partial-scores.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/155724-loopz-atari-st-screenshot-partial-scores.jpg", + "width": 320 + } + ], + "title": "Loopz" + }, + { + "description": "You take control of a young man named Will who wants to become a knight.

According to Dr. Light's calculations, he has used the machine to travel roughly 37,426 years into the future. This can mean nothing good and so Mega Man, along with his dog Rush, sets out to find out more about Dr. Wily's plans.\n\nMega Man II follows the same formula as its predecessors, meaning the player has to complete a number of side-scrolling, platforming levels that are guarded by different bosses. Mega Man can only shoot left or right, but defeating a boss rewards him with a new weapon.

Pac-Man's directions are chosen at random between left or right, but as he goes moving on the game area (after you place him, of course), if he bumps against a block or a \"wall\" on the game area, he will change his direction. As with many block-dropping puzzlers, if a line of blocks and/or ghosts reaches the top, the game ends. However, by filling up a meter on the left of the game area, a fairy may appear that can clear approximately 6 or 7 lines with ghosts, but it only clears the ghosts, although the blocks that were on top of them will drop.\n\nAlso, like many puzzlers, it contains a versus mode against another human player. It's similar to the many versus modes of puzzle games: eat plenty of ghosts and your opponent will recieve many ghosts on his area.\n\nThe game also includes a Puzzle mode.

It's up to Attila and Genghis to eat their way through sixteen tricky stages as they avoid nasty traps and open the exits by standing on the scales to open the exit door.\n\nSneaky Snakes is a pseudo-sequel to the NES game Snake, Rattle 'n Roll. However, instead of an isometric playfield, the game is this time a standard sidescrolling platformer. Players can play as Attila (or link up and play simultaneously with a friend as Genghis) through various devious levels. The goal of each level is to eat enough Nibbleys (round creatures which come in assorted flavors including balloons, jellyfish, joggers, and more) to earn enough tail segments. When your snake has enough segments, its body will flash, and you can weigh yourself to open the exit gate and progress to the next level.\n\nEach level has a time limit of 99 seconds - if this runs out, a giant ax will appear, chasing after your snake until it eventually destroys it.

Sablé must remove the curse and rescue the princess.\n\nKaeru No Tame Ni Kane Wa Naru is an action-adventure game. The game plays in two modes: a top-down view (where most exploration and battle is done), and a side-scrolling view (where more puzzle solving is done than battles). Battling is not actually performed by the player, instead it is all automatic. If you bump into an enemy, you will see a dust cloud appear, and the pair will scuffle, with each character's health draining. Whoever loses all their health first loses the battle. Sablé can increase his battle advantage by collecting heart containers (to increase his life bar), and power ups that increase statistics like power and defense.\n\nAnother feature of Kaeru No Tame Ni Kane Wa Naru is Sablé's ability to transform into a frog at certain points in the game. This allows him to access areas that he previously could not. The main goal of the game is to conquer a huge castle, however, sections are sealed off until you complete parts of the story, allowing you to explore it in small parts at a time.", + "game_id": 25580, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 30, + "genre_name": "Puzzle elements" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Art Style", + "genre_category_id": 13, + "genre_id": 57, + "genre_name": "Anime / manga" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 78, + "genre_name": "Fantasy" + } + ], + "moby_score": 0, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru", + "num_votes": 0, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1992-09-14", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2012-09-05", + "platform_id": 101, + "platform_name": "Nintendo 3DS" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 1010, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/413614-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/413614-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/199369-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/199369-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Prince Richard defeats Sablé at fencing", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/199370-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-screenshot-prince-richard.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/199370-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-screenshot-prince-richard.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Sablé throws a pile of money at this guy to buy his ship to sail", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/199371-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-screenshot-sable-throws.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/199371-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-screenshot-sable-throws.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Exploring a village", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/199372-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-screenshot-exploring.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/199372-kaeru-no-tame-ni-kane-wa-naru-game-boy-screenshot-exploring.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Kaeru no tame ni Kane wa Naru" + }, + { + "description": "Terminator 2: Judgement Day is a game based on the movie of the same name.

    \nIn the early levels of the game, you play as the future John Connor - your objectives are to destroy generators to gain access to Skynet. Once inside, you must make your way through Skynet and obtain a Terminator yourself. These levels are played in a side-scrolling fashion. The next level is a difficult puzzle - you must reprogram the Terminator so that it will protect John Connor instead of killing him. You need to realign the wires so that power cells can reach their destinations and reset the program.\n

    \nOnce you pass this level, you take on the role of the Terminator in 1994. You must protect John Connor while on a motorbike being chased by the T-1000. Later levels include infiltrating Cyberdyne to obtain the previous Terminator's arm and chip, and the final showdown with the T-1000 at the steel mill.", + "game_id": 25781, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 8, + "genre_name": "Sci-fi / futuristic" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 9, + "genre_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 30, + "genre_name": "Puzzle elements" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 65, + "genre_name": "Post-apocalyptic" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.2, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/t2-terminator-2-judgment-day", + "num_votes": 9, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1991", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 803, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/146140-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/146140-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "T2.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/884091-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-screenshot-t2.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/884091-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-screenshot-t2.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Title Screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/201378-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/201378-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Each level starts with a short intro to give some backstory and hints", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/201379-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-screenshot-each-level.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/201379-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-screenshot-each-level.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "A typical day in L.A.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/201380-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-screenshot-a-typical.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/201380-t2-terminator-2-judgment-day-game-boy-screenshot-a-typical.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "T2: Terminator 2 - Judgment Day" + }, + { + "description": "The Punisher: Ultimate Payback is essentially a lightgun game, though obviously, you can't actually use a lightgun on Game Boy.

On the top left of the screen there is a counter for the lucky stars collected. Lucky stars allow the character to touch dangerous objects once without suffering damage. Besides that are several hearts representing the number of lives. On the top right is the inventory display, showing the two objects assigned to the buttons. Hitting START while on a mission brings up a map, while pressing SELECT displays a menu with options and the password at the bottom of the screen.\n\n\nThe game is far larger than previous isometric adventures like Knight Lore, with over 600 more detailed locations (the double of Head Over Heels).

They'll find five characters from the Disney's universe in the kingdom, and will be prompted to help them in several tasks.\n\nEach task is a different puzzle, given by a specific character. Daisy, for instance, will ask help to clean the castle's paintings hanging on a wall. The task is in fact a memory game, where Mickey or Minnie must clean the pictures matching pairs.

In this mode, the timer ticks down from 30 minutes, and you must solve the puzzle before the timer reaches zero. If you chip away an incorrect square, you are penalized time (first two minutes, then four, then eight).\n\nAfter solving a certain amount of puzzles in Mario's Picross mode, you can play Wario's Picross.

Similar in design to the later Mario Party titles, players begin by choosing one of three of the undercover cops. The player begins at the start location of the board and must use one of their \"numbered value tiles\". If the number chosen is above 1, the player must compete on a slot machine to try to win a value up to what was written on the tile. Following that, the player is able to move the number value, which they have won, of spaces on the board. Certain squares will activate events that include talking with characters, buying items and engaging in battle.\n\nBattles with enemies are handled by each side choosing one of the numbered tiles they own. The party with the higher number becomes the attacker and the lower value becomes the defender. Each side then chooses another numbered tile to determine the amount of \"effort\" put into the attack or defense as well as a position of the body to attack/defend. With that chosen, the turn's sequence plays out, with HP lost on a successful impact.

Bullets, when fired, travel in the direction of the ship's movement, requiring the player to actually travel toward enemies in order to shoot them down.\n\nThis was the first color game for the Macintosh, although it was business-as-usual for the IIgs.", + "game_id": 30781, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 8, + "genre_name": "Sci-fi / futuristic" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 133, + "genre_name": "Fixed / flip-screen" + } + ], + "moby_score": 4, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/crystal-quest_", + "num_votes": 10, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1987", + "platform_id": 74, + "platform_name": "Macintosh" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1989", + "platform_id": 19, + "platform_name": "Amiga" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1989", + "platform_id": 51, + "platform_name": "Apple IIgs" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1991-09", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2001-10", + "platform_id": 65, + "platform_name": "Palm OS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2001-10", + "platform_id": 66, + "platform_name": "Windows Mobile" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2006-02-07", + "platform_id": 69, + "platform_name": "Xbox 360" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2008", + "platform_id": 64, + "platform_name": "J2ME" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2008-11-08", + "platform_id": 86, + "platform_name": "iPhone" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2015-10-22", + "platform_id": 3, + "platform_name": "Windows" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 300, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/163891-crystal-quest-xbox-360-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Xbox 360" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/163891-crystal-quest-xbox-360-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 219 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 342, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/901032-crystal-quest-macintosh-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/901032-crystal-quest-macintosh-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 512 + }, + { + "caption": "Game start", + "height": 342, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/901033-crystal-quest-macintosh-screenshot-game-start.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/901033-crystal-quest-macintosh-screenshot-game-start.jpg", + "width": 512 + }, + { + "caption": "Wave 3", + "height": 342, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/901034-crystal-quest-macintosh-screenshot-wave-3.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/901034-crystal-quest-macintosh-screenshot-wave-3.jpg", + "width": 512 + }, + { + "caption": "Game over", + "height": 342, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/901035-crystal-quest-macintosh-screenshot-game-over.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/901035-crystal-quest-macintosh-screenshot-game-over.jpg", + "width": 512 + } + ], + "title": "Crystal Quest" + }, + { + "description": "Tiny Toon Adventures is based on an animated series of the same name.

Now it's up to RoboCop to clean the streets of Detroit and eliminate the one responsible for his murder, Clarence Boddicker.

Stages include the streets of Detroit (in two parts, based on the first level of the arcade), a drug factory (based on the fourth arcade level), and a junkyard (based on the third coin-op stage). Gun power-ups to collect include a rapid fire model, a three-way shot and a powerful flame cannon. Two levels end with boss fights against RoboCop's chief adversary ED-209. For some reason, ED is impervious to bullets and must be defeated using Robo's fists alone.\n\nNew challenges from the arcade include hostage scenarios: in these, seen from a first-person perspective, a criminal holds an innocent person. Moving crosshairs and firing precisely, RoboCop must take care to shoot only the criminal, not the civilian.\n\nAnother new game element requires some quick thinking: in a puzzle mode, a composite sketch of a suspect is presented and must be matched by choosing the correct parts (hair, chin, eyes, etc.) of the face within a tight time limit.", + "game_id": 30924, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 8, + "genre_name": "Sci-fi / futuristic" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 9, + "genre_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.3, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/robocop__", + "num_votes": 64, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1988", + "platform_id": 27, + "platform_name": "Commodore 64" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1988", + "platform_id": 41, + "platform_name": "ZX Spectrum" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1989", + "platform_id": 2, + "platform_name": "DOS" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1989", + "platform_id": 57, + "platform_name": "MSX" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1989", + "platform_id": 60, + "platform_name": "Amstrad CPC" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 984, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/32529-robocop-commodore-64-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Commodore 64" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/32529-robocop-commodore-64-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 646 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/61206-robocop-commodore-64-screenshot-title.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/61206-robocop-commodore-64-screenshot-title.gif", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "Level 1", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/61207-robocop-commodore-64-screenshot-level-1.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/61207-robocop-commodore-64-screenshot-level-1.gif", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "\"Aaaaaiiiieeeeee\"", + "height": 200, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/61208-robocop-commodore-64-screenshot-aaaaaiiiieeeeee.gif", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/61208-robocop-commodore-64-screenshot-aaaaaiiiieeeeee.gif", + "width": 320 + }, + { + "caption": "Murphy, you're looking the wrong way.

Each mission covers a large area of land and the player will need to consult the real-time map to travel appropriately to target locations.

The same happens when a boxer goes down three times in a single round (regular knock-out). When down, players need to press both punch buttons in rapid succession to get back to their feet.

As the intro tells, they live on the planet of super robots, when a mysterious space creature know as Gil Gil Gan takes control of most the planet's inhabitants and launch a destructive war.\n\nThe basic interface is like every other SRT game: your robots are placed out on a map grid with different terrain types. Placing the cursor above a robot and pushing a button brings up a menu with basic choices for movement, attack, status and special options. A similar menu is displayed if you move your robot close to an enemy unit, offering options to attack, use spiritual powers or negotiate. After all robots have moved, the turn is over, and the game switches to the enemy phase.\n\nAll robots are licensed from two parties only – Sunrise and Dynamic – and when starting the game you may choose to start with the Gundam team, the Mazinger team or the Getter Robo team. One robot must be designated as the team leader, which allows you to upgrade its statistics with a number of points. If the leader robot is destroyed in battle, the game is over. Unlike later games, destroyed units are not repaired after a scenario is cleared, but may show up as an enemy unit later on. This puts a lot more emphasis on the negotiation command than later games, since a lot more enemy units may in fact turn out to be friends. Few of them will listen unless you have first brought down their HP to a minimal amount, though.\n\nApart from HP, each unit has XP. Experience is gained for each enemy unit that is destroyed, and a level up adds to all aspects of your robot; speed, force, armor, HP and SP. SP, or spiritual power, is like MP in conventional RPGs, allowing a unit-specific set of ”spiritual commands” to be executed. These usually change game variables, such as force of attack, speed of dodging or health. Health is otherwise regenerated by putting a unit in one of the bases spread out on each map. When first entering a base, you gain a power-up item. These are fitted to your robots between scenarios and include new weapons and shields.\n\nEach battle is displayed as a small animation, but it is all very primitive compared to later games in the series, even on the Game Boy, with little movement apart from the bullets and lasers.

A snake will destroy any other snakes of the same color and pattern that it touches with its head on the way down, which often has the chain effect of loosening the pile of snakes so that all the snakes slither into new positions, possibly eliminating even more snakes.\n\nThe game is played against a selection of backgrounds including desert, forest, water, or grass. Further, there are 7 game grids including the standard grid (a tall rectangle), X, plus, flask, Diabolo (an hourglass pattern), T-square, and obstacle (with a number of intermediate blocks).\n\nThe player starts out as a nestling and earns higher and higher distinctions taken from the snake realm (garter snake, water snake, boa, mambo, python, king cobra, etc.) as more snakes are cleared. Also, as the level increases. more types of snake patterns must be handled. Sometimes, there is a flashing red snake that eliminates the first snake it touches. Further, there is occasionally an unstoppable snake that barrels down to the bottom of the space, eliminating all snakes in its path.\n\nThe game can be played with 1 or 2 players in either easy, normal or hard mode. In the single player mode, the player can choose whether the preview showing the next snake will be shown. In 2-player mode, there is always a preview window. In fact, there is a queue of 3 snakes between the 2 player spaces from which the next snake is drawn.

To do this, the mouse must climb onto one stack and push a taller, neighbouring stack so that tiles fall off, until there are no tiles stacked on top of each other. Oftentimes, there stacks are not adjacent to each other, which forces the mouse to push a tile next to the stack in order to have something to stand on. Since the mouse is so weak, it can only move a single tile. This calls for a lot of juggling, since in order to move a stack of three tiles (represented by a 3 in a square), it must move a single tile next to a stack of two tiles, then move another tile to the other side of the small stack and push the uppermost tile of the stack onto the single tile in order to create a stack of two next to the stack of three. If there is a distance greater than one or two squares between the stacks, it makes the task daunting and requires a lot of planning, which puts this game straight into the old style of Japanese puzzles pioneered by Sokoban.\n\nLater stages introduce tiles of different kinds, symbolised by hearts, squares or stars. These tiles will, when moved together in groups of four, be eliminated; or at least the uppermost layer will. This calls for three-dimensional – or even four-dimensional – thinking on behalf of the player. None of the special tiles must be left on the screen for the stage to be cleared.\n\nA second gaming mode contains ready-made puzzles which must be solved in a limited amount of time.

If you don't centre the shuttle according to the signs, your progress is slowed down and you will run out of fuel before leaving Earth's gravitation. You must also keep an eye on your compressor, since it must be constantly at a high level for the rockets to boost sufficiently. Feeding the compressor too much will deplete your fuel, though, so everything must be balanced for the lift-off to be successful.\n\nLanding: This stage is very similar to the old Lunar Lander type of game that was popular in the early eighties. From a map of the moon, you select one of eight landing sites. On the landing screen, you must carefully guide your lander through the cave-like craters to the landing pads. Different landing pads are worth different amounts of points, according to level of difficulty. Preserving your lander's fuel will also give bonus points. Unlike most typical Lander games, your craft has no rockets for going left or right – instead you must rotate your lander and ignite the single landing rocket in order to adjust your angle. There are also meteorites to watch out for.\n\nExploration: Once you have landed, an astronaut steps out on the surface, armed with a metal detector. Your task here is to find five different kinds of metal ore and bring them to the lander before you run out of air or time. The metal detector beeps with different frequencies according to your vicinity to a piece of metal. If there is a constant beep, you drill for the metal. If you drill elsewhere, you may find flowers that replenish your air supply. To complicate things, the moon surface is filled with robots that try to hunt you down.

The pitcher can also stop the opponent stealing a base which can be seen via windows showing the positions of all the baserunners. When controlling the batter the player has to time the hit to successfully hit the ball so it will not be a missed hit or a foul, or has the option to not hit in case of a ‘ball’. The player can also steal a base while batting. After the ball is hit the game goes into fielding mode where the camera shifts to a view that is lower than the normal 45 degree angle (the fielder gets smaller as he moves away from the camera). The player then controls the closest fielder to get or catch the ball and then throw it to the selected base. There are many different cameras angles that the game selects depending on the location of the ball.

On a grid, the player clicks in a cell and hopes that it is not occupied with a mine. If it isn't, that cell is filled with a number, which indicates how many mines there are in adjacent cells. Using logical thinking, looking at the relations between different number cells, the player can conclude which cells contain a mine and mark them as such. Once all cells are revealed, the player progresses to the next minefield.\n\nThree main game modes are available, differentiated by the size of the minefield: 9x7, 12x12 and 18x14. Clearing a minefield takes the player to another one of the same size, but with more bombs to clear.\n\nA second mode is a mission mode (\"voyage mode\" in the PC Engine version), where the player is presented with 10 minefields each in 7 locations around the world. The first ones are very small, only 4x4, growing larger and larger from then on. What is different about the mission mode is that a few cells in the minefield are revealed from the start, putting the player's ability of deduction at test. The editor mode allows players to construct a minefield of their own, by inputting parameters of size and amount of bombs.\n\nThe Game Boy version can also be played by two players via a link cable. The PC Engine (TurboGrafx CD) version contains an additional mode entitled \"Cook's Quest\", in which the player has to help a cook to escape from falling boulders in a cave, represented by mines on a familiar minesweeper field.", + "game_id": 34789, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 118, + "genre_name": "Puzzle" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 133, + "genre_name": "Fixed / flip-screen" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Interface/Control", + "genre_category_id": 7, + "genre_id": 167, + "genre_name": "Point and select" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/minesweeper_", + "num_votes": 1, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1991-12-13", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992-03-20", + "platform_id": 45, + "platform_name": "TurboGrafx CD" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 788, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/412819-minesweeper-turbografx-cd-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "TurboGrafx CD" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/412819-minesweeper-turbografx-cd-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/306967-minesweeper-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/306967-minesweeper-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Mode select", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/306968-minesweeper-game-boy-screenshot-mode-select.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/306968-minesweeper-game-boy-screenshot-mode-select.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "A virginal minefield on level 1", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/306971-minesweeper-game-boy-screenshot-a-virginal-minefield-on-level.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/306971-minesweeper-game-boy-screenshot-a-virginal-minefield-on-level.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "At this level, it's easy to find the mines.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/306972-minesweeper-game-boy-screenshot-at-this-level-it-s-easy-to.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/306972-minesweeper-game-boy-screenshot-at-this-level-it-s-easy-to.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Minesweeper" + }, + { + "description": "Catrap is a single screen puzzle game with 100 rounds.

You can punch a bad guy by walking onto it from the left or right. You can't attack from above or below, but you can stand on top of a monster, or underneath a monster. Other elements to make the game more interesting are loose ground which you can stand on or dig through, ladders to climb and boulders you can push around.\n\nYou can choose to play each round as a boy or a girl, but this doesn't affect gameplay, only the background music. In some rounds, both the boy and the girl are present at the same time. You can then switch between them with select-button, using both of them in clever ways to solve the rounds.

In this scaled down version Major League teams are replaced with two teams representing the East and West Coast Divisions. With two Game Boy units and a Video Link cable players can go head to head - although each player will also need their own game cartridge. Single players can enjoy a quick pickup game by selecting an unofficial game of 1 to 9 innings.

The player must travel to six different locations to locate these safes (a forest, a pirate ship, the big city, an underground cavern, the old west and a final showdown with Jake).\n\nThe gameplay is fairly simple: using Yogi, the player can travel from left to right and right to left on the screen; to kill certain enemies the hero must jump on them. Some enemies, however, can't be killed and must be avoided since Yogi has no weapons to harm them; he has to avoid various pitfalls and hazards as well.\n\nThere are no true power-ups; instead, there are picnic baskets scattered throughout the stage, a 100 of which will grant the player an extra life. Likewise, there are icons labeled \"1-UP\" that will give the player a life, as well as health-refilling items. There are also hidden doors and areas that the player must find in order to locate the various safes. When Yogi enters these safes, he must collect the 25 gold coins to get a bar of gold; collecting 12 of these gold bars will give Yogi the money needed to win the game.", + "game_id": 39259, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 9, + "genre_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/yogi-bears-goldrush", + "num_votes": 4, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1994", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/367422-yogi-bear-s-goldrush-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/367422-yogi-bear-s-goldrush-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Options", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/367421-yogi-bear-s-goldrush-game-boy-screenshot-options.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/367421-yogi-bear-s-goldrush-game-boy-screenshot-options.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "I feel like I'm watching and being watched...", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/367423-yogi-bear-s-goldrush-game-boy-screenshot-i-feel-like-i-m-watching.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/367423-yogi-bear-s-goldrush-game-boy-screenshot-i-feel-like-i-m-watching.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Preparing to stomp a shroom.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/367424-yogi-bear-s-goldrush-game-boy-screenshot-preparing-to-stomp.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/367424-yogi-bear-s-goldrush-game-boy-screenshot-preparing-to-stomp.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Yogi Bear's Goldrush" + }, + { + "description": "Elite Soccer lets the player choose from 24 National teams including the U.S., England, France, Brazil among others, in a chance to play in the World Cup tournament and win the coveted trophy.

To damage his enemies, Kuros can use two different attacks: a fast stab attack and a strike that is slower, but has a better range.\n\nVarious items that help Kuros on his quest can be picked up throughout the levels: gems increase the player's score and grant extra lives, food replenishes some health, a spell of invincibility makes Kuros temporarily invincible, and keys are used to open treasure chests or doors. Kuros can also find additional equipment including a \"Shield of Protection\" that halves the damage he receives, and the \"Boots of Jumping\" that let him jump higher and fall from high platforms without taking damage.

The goal is to place pieces made up of four tiles in a ten-by-twenty well, organizing them into complete rows, which then disappear.

Players take the role of Jonathan Harker whose mission is to destroy Count Dracula by first heading to Transylvania and then London.\n\nJonathan Harker can move left and right, jump and attack with a weapon, the most basic of which is a knife. The status display on the screen shows Harker's health bar, countdown timer to complete the level and currently held weapon. Throughout the levels question mark boxes (similar to the Mario games) can be found, attacking these will reveal power ups which include health restoration, timer increase and new weapons. Among these new weapons are axes, daggers and a shotgun. Question mark boxes can also be used as platforms to reach other areas and enemies.

But there is one hope in the form of the old Shabubu's grandson, Yacopu (also spelled Yakopoo).\n\nThe player controls Yacopu through five stages in this side-scrolling platformer. The young Shabubu's trademark ability is to shapeshift into different forms. In his normal form, he is able to walk and jump as well as to kick enemies, Yacopu's primary way of attacking. Unlike in many other platformers, many of the enemies don't harm you on contact and push your character around instead. However, certain foes might attack you after you damaged them, while others do so from the beginning.\n\nAt almost any time, the player can change to the flying or fish form. Flying Yacopu is able to reach places he wouldn't otherwise be able to, while the fishy hero is best suited for underwater areas. You also come across power-ups that temporarily give your character new powers, such as stunning enemies with seeds, bouncing around as a ball, or attacking with an extended tail. Beneath the mountain, settings in the game include a jungle, the ocean, and a castle. In each stages, you have to defeat a boss at the end.

This happens in a top-down view similar to The Legend of Zelda. Characters can attack and jump. Each character has different attacks. Items can be collected and the player can move freely between tiles. Moving through tiles that are occupied by the enemy conquers those territories, but the enemy can take them back at any time by moving through them again. If two enemy units meet on the same tile, combat ensues. In real time the player must try to defeat the AI opponent. This is done through dodging his attack and trying to land a blow. To conquer a castle all enemies including those in adjacent tiles must be defeated. \n\nIt is also possible to find and collect items in the direct control mode. Items serve as power-ups that for example make the player faster or restore health points.The player can return to a castle at any time to heal completely.\n\nThe player can select the size of the world to increase or decrease the game's length.

There's no other goal apart from that, the player just needs to find the exit in each level. Apart from getting there, the exit must also be unlocked. For the latter, the player must collect all gems in the level.\n\nEach level contains various traps and enemies which need to be avoided. The puzzles involve finding keys to lower bridges or open doors, make use of teleporters and especially: drilling away blocks. Conveniently, the player finds a pneumatic hammer at the beginning of the game, which must be used to create paths to certain areas and items, without blocking the way forth or back. There's also an inventory to store items like keys and bombs (used to kill enemies). The protagonist has a health bar and can take several hits before losing a life, but there is also a time limit for each level.\n\nThe game features a password system, a password is given automatically after completing a level.\n\nIn spite of the differences in main character and a minor variation in the short intro cinematic all regional versions are identical.\n\nThe levels are copied from the Amiga game P.

Like other versions of Shanghai, there is also a hint mode for when players get stuck. \n", + "game_id": 48408, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 27, + "genre_name": "Cards / tiles" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 118, + "genre_name": "Puzzle" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 133, + "genre_name": "Fixed / flip-screen" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 154, + "genre_name": "Tile matching puzzle" + } + ], + "moby_score": 2.7, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/shanghai__", + "num_votes": 3, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1989", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 788, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/218750-shanghai-game-boy-front-cover.png", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/218750-shanghai-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/470442-shanghai-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/470442-shanghai-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Let's begin?

To win the game, all alleys have to be beaten in a row with an increasing points requirement (200 to 250) - if the score is missed once, it is back to the beginning.\n\nThe player can set the weight of the bowling ball: a heavier ball has more power but this goes in turn with a loss of control. It also depends on the chosen player character: the male is better with heavy balls while the female character should use a lighter one. The throw itself is divided into three parts: character position on the alley, control and power. While the first is simply chosen by lining the character up, the latter two are reaction games: a marker goes from left to right (and vice versa) and the player has to hit the button when the marker reaches the desired point. A high value (i.e. the marker is right) in control means that the throw is straight while a high power determines the speed and strength.", + "game_id": 54154, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 5, + "genre_name": "Sports" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 88, + "genre_name": "Bowling" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 126, + "genre_name": "3rd-person (Other)" + } + ], + "moby_score": 2.5, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/world-bowling", + "num_votes": 4, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1990", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/685157-world-bowling-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/685157-world-bowling-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Choose your country.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/685158-world-bowling-game-boy-screenshot-choose-your-country.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/685158-world-bowling-game-boy-screenshot-choose-your-country.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Ready to bowl.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/685159-world-bowling-game-boy-screenshot-ready-to-bowl.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/685159-world-bowling-game-boy-screenshot-ready-to-bowl.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "The ball is on it's way.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/685160-world-bowling-game-boy-screenshot-the-ball-is-on-it-s-way.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/685160-world-bowling-game-boy-screenshot-the-ball-is-on-it-s-way.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "World Bowling" + }, + { + "description": "Dead Heat Scramble is a relatively simple racing game.

So, as example, if the player clicks on a tile which is a few tiles away from the hole, all tiles between the clicked tile and the hole are moved by one towards the hole. Then the hole is at the place where the player clicked on.

There is also another (on higher levels two) car on the track which tries to crash into the player - of course this needs to be avoided. This mode features ten difficulty levels.\n\nThe special mode adds a few things to the basic playing principle. In this mode there are three difficulty levels and nine tracks which all add variations to the playing field, e.g. a different lane layout, oil slicks which cause the car to spin when driving over it or conveyor belts. There are also a few power ups which randomly appear on the track and need to be picked up within a limited time frame. Most of them are not activated instantly and can be used at a opportune time. The power ups are a bomb (causes a near enemy to spin), a level skip, an extra live, a shield, an enemy slow down and one which causes all cars to make a u-turn.

A knockdown is achieved by emptying the opponent's life bar. Additionally each hit (with a big bonus for winning) gives prize money which in turn is invested in upgrading the robot. The player can buy new parts for the four components (main body, legs and the individual arms) - but an upgraded robot also influences the difficulty of the next enemy.

Lost health points can be recharged by finding heart icons or by spending points.\n\nIn some parts of the game, Daffy steps on a flying sled and must evade Marvin, always close on his tail.\nThe game also features several boss battles against Marvin, his dog K-9 and other spacey creatures.", + "game_id": 54801, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 8, + "genre_name": "Sci-fi / futuristic" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.4, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/daffy-duck", + "num_votes": 7, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1994", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 721, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/145169-daffy-duck-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/145169-daffy-duck-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 732 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/178780-daffy-duck-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/178780-daffy-duck-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Duck Dodgers shoots a robot", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/178782-daffy-duck-game-boy-screenshot-duck-dodgers-shoots-a-robot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/178782-daffy-duck-game-boy-screenshot-duck-dodgers-shoots-a-robot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "You jump with a jet pack.

Casper is a ghost with three evil uncles, who have turned the dad of Casper's human friend Kat into ectoplasm. The goal is to bring him back to the living. There are six different mini games:\n\n
    • Protect the Ooze: The player has to protect the Ooze containers stationed at the bottom of the screen. Casper's uncles come flying from the top of the screen and have to be shot with the crosshair before they can damage the containers. The game ends after a certain amount of time has passed.
    • \n
    • Ooze Runner: There are four floors which can be reached by climbing ladders. On each floor is an Ooze container which needs to be collected. However, the uncles patrol the floors and their touch needs to be avoided. After enough Ooze has been collected, a flag appears on the top level which needs to be touched to end the level. This has to be accomplished within a time limit.
    • \n
    • Return the Books: One of the uncles drops books from the top of the screen and the goal is to prevent them from falling on the floor. Casper can transform into a trampoline which is used to bounce the book to a collecting container on the left of the screen. Occasionally Ooze vials will appear which need to be collected in order to win the mini game.
    • \n
    • Puzzles: Here the player has to construct a machine, e.g. one which automatically cooks breakfast, by switching a few items into the correct order.
    • \n
    • The Up and At 'Em Machine: Casper has to push Kat, who is sitting in a mining cart, left and right in order to avoid chains and ghosts.
    • \n
    • Casper Says: A simple Simon Says variant.
    \n\nIn order to complete the game, the first four mini games have to completed three times with increasing difficulty, after which the fifth and sixth come into play. After completing those two, the player will face the last challenge: a final Ooze Runner game.

The main differences to the predecessor are the new mini game Slam Dunk (replaces H.O.R.S.E.) and slightly reworked graphics for the others. Before each game, the player can choose between 27 real-life athletes, one from each NBA team's 1991 roster. All games can be played by two players via the Game Boy link cable.\n\nThe disciplines are:
      \n
    • One On One: A standard one-on-one match which is restricted to the area directly before the basket. The winning condition can be set before starting the match: either scoring a certain amount of points or scoring the most within a certain time frame.

    • \n
    • Free Throws: This mini game is about a free throw, i.e. trying to score from a fixed place without getting disturbed by an opponent. A cursor automatically moves around the basket and when the player presses the button, the athlete throws the ball to the cursor's position. The number of throws can be set before the game.

    • \n
    • Three Point Shootout: There are five marked points around the basket; directly at the border where scoring rewards three points. The athlete stands at each point for a certain amount of time before he switches to the next point. A throwing attempt is simply performed by pressing the button twice: first for jumping and the second time for throwing the ball. This mini game is available in a training and a competitive variant.

    • \n
    • Slam Dunk: Before each round, the player selects the performed dunk variant from a list. This mode is shown from the side, the player moves towards the basket and has to press the right button with the correct timing to score. This mode is available in a training (the game gives a few pointers for the timing) and a competitive mode.

    • \n
    • Accuracy Shootout: Works similar to Three Point Shootout with the difference that the points are spread all over the area. The player needs to walk to the spot and, if the previous shot was missed, collect the ball from the place it bounced to. The player can either set the points manually before the mini game starts or use the random generator.

    • \n
    • Tournament: A series of one-on-one matches in knock-out mode.

They are either fake chests or special areas in the level, e.g. a cloud can be prepared to hit a spy with a lightning - but they don't differentiate between the agents. A trap can be triggered without taking damage when quick enough. Each spy has a health bar which is lowered by traps, fist fights against the other spy or walking into a level obstacle. Losing energy lowers the speed and ability to jump and eventually leads to death. The spy will re-spawn after a few seconds but loses all collected items.", + "game_id": 55957, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 4, + "genre_name": "Strategy / tactics" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Narrative Theme/Topic", + "genre_category_id": 8, + "genre_id": 93, + "genre_name": "Spy / espionage" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Interface/Control", + "genre_category_id": 7, + "genre_id": 168, + "genre_name": "Direct control" + } + ], + "moby_score": 2.7, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/mad-magazines-official-spy-vs-spy", + "num_votes": 3, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1992-05-02", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/688585-mad-magazine-s-official-spy-vs-spy-game-boy-screenshot-title.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/688585-mad-magazine-s-official-spy-vs-spy-game-boy-screenshot-title.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Select a Spy.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/688587-mad-magazine-s-official-spy-vs-spy-game-boy-screenshot-select.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/688587-mad-magazine-s-official-spy-vs-spy-game-boy-screenshot-select.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "First Operation.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/688588-mad-magazine-s-official-spy-vs-spy-game-boy-screenshot-first.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/688588-mad-magazine-s-official-spy-vs-spy-game-boy-screenshot-first.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Let's go.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/688589-mad-magazine-s-official-spy-vs-spy-game-boy-screenshot-let.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/688589-mad-magazine-s-official-spy-vs-spy-game-boy-screenshot-let.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Mad Magazine's Official Spy vs Spy" + }, + { + "description": "J League: Big Wave Soccer is a soccer game featuring the Japanese soccer league with its 14 teams, including the speciality of a penalty shootout in case of a draw result.

The special weapons for each character can be switched in an extra menu, the weapons have unlimited ammo and the effects of the other power-ups (increasing attack range, attack power, etc.) have been incorporated into the protagonist's differences.", + "game_id": 56308, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 8, + "genre_name": "Sci-fi / futuristic" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 22, + "genre_name": "Shooter" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.2, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/ikari-no-ysai-2", + "num_votes": 2, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1992-02-21", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "2012-01-11", + "platform_id": 101, + "platform_name": "Nintendo 3DS" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 80, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/279395-ikari-no-yosai-2-nintendo-3ds-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Nintendo 3DS" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/279395-ikari-no-yosai-2-nintendo-3ds-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 80 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/688207-ikari-no-yosai-2-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/688207-ikari-no-yosai-2-game-boy-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Let's go.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/688208-ikari-no-yosai-2-game-boy-screenshot-let-s-go.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/688208-ikari-no-yosai-2-game-boy-screenshot-let-s-go.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Your status.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/688209-ikari-no-yosai-2-game-boy-screenshot-your-status.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/688209-ikari-no-yosai-2-game-boy-screenshot-your-status.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Gun placement and enemy soldier.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/688210-ikari-no-yosai-2-game-boy-screenshot-gun-placement-and-enemy.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/688210-ikari-no-yosai-2-game-boy-screenshot-gun-placement-and-enemy.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Ikari no Yōsai 2" + }, + { + "description": "In Turn and Burn: The F-14 Dogfight Simulator the player mans a F-14 combat fighter and has to solve various missions, e.g. destroying an enemy base or destroying all enemy aircraft in the area.

The game evolves around four quests (killing monsters, freeing fairies or collecting gold/orbs) with ten difficulties each. The difficulty determines how big the target number is, the stats the player starts with and what monsters are encountered. Starting a quest creates a randomly generated dungeon where the player has one chance to reach the goal - death means a new dungeon has to be created. Beating a difficultly level unlocks the next; this is also the one thing the game saves.\n\nThe dungeons itself are shown from a top-down perspective and feature the hero, walls, floor tiles, monsters and items to collect. Movement is turn-based and each turn is divided into four phases (player movement, player attack, monster attack and finally monster movement). Attacks are only possible when the two participants stand besides each other and the computer simply calculates the result from the statistics (attack, defense, luck and a a random component) which then lowers the health points of the attacked hero/monster. Of course reaching a health of zero means defeat. The mentioned statistics can be improved by finding and using certain items like weapons or armor. Potions, spells and rings which have additional effects when used/equipped, e.g. health refreshments, healing poison, dealing much damage or invisibility.\n\nImportant to note is that the environment also plays an important part in the quest. The walls and tiles may have special effects when touched, examples are pits (the player/monster falls to the next level of the dungeon and takes damage), breakable walls, lava or teleporters. Some rooms may be covered in fog which obscure the floor tiles until the hero walks onto it (monsters still can be made out).

This version differs from the version of the game by Ukiyotei. While also a platformer, the title by Painting by Numbers also includes flying levels as well as one-on-one fight scenes.\n\nFrom a map of Neverland, the next level to be played can be chosen via a compass-like pointer. Depending on which ones are tackled first, different paths through the game open up, but all levels must be completed before Hook can be confronted on his pirate ship. The locations include caves, forests, lagoons, towns and icy landscapes.\n\nBefore each level, the fairy Tinker Bell will offer some advice on the goals and challenges to follow.\nThe main goal in every stage is to collect a number of items, like cakes, cherries, coins or peaches, and sometimes a special item like a clock, a tooth and a musical horn. Only when all items have been picked up the level exit will open. Between Peter and the exit there will be various enemies, depending on the type of level: pirates, ghosts, dragons, monkeys, snowmen and many more. To defend himself, Peter can use a sword. Once he has picked up some thimbles, Tinker Bell will start following him, and by using up a thimble he can also send out the fairy to attack. Collecting marbles is also important, as these allow Peter to float along pixie dust, which allows him to reach areas otherwise out of bounds. Lost health is replenished by picking up food.\n\nBesides the standard platforming levels, there are also underwater areas. In these, Tinker Bell isn't available to help, and having to swim makes it more difficult to get around. Anvils conveniently placed around the area can be held on to to get deeper fast. The only way to refill the health bar is to swim to the surface for air.\n\nDifferent areas of Neverland are connected through flying levels. In these, Peter Pan is seen from behind. The Lost Boys send up marbles on balloons which he must pick up to stay afloat, but Hook's men will also send up balloons with dynamite which must be avoided, as must the occasional storm cloud.\n\nThe first fight scene is against Rufio, who must be beaten to collect a magic sword. The final confrontation against Hook is another fight, but unlike Rufio, Hook doesn't play fair and sends out Smee to temporarily immobilize Peter using a ball and chain.", + "game_id": 56574, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 78, + "genre_name": "Fantasy" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 2.6, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/hook__", + "num_votes": 21, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 22, + "platform_name": "NES" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1992", + "platform_id": 27, + "platform_name": "Commodore 64" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 808, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/146404-hook-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/146404-hook-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title Screen", + "height": 240, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/573276-hook-nes-screenshot-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/573276-hook-nes-screenshot-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Main Menu", + "height": 240, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/573277-hook-nes-screenshot-main-menu.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/573277-hook-nes-screenshot-main-menu.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Tink tells you the story", + "height": 240, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/573278-hook-nes-screenshot-tink-tells-you-the-story.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/573278-hook-nes-screenshot-tink-tells-you-the-story.jpg", + "width": 256 + }, + { + "caption": "Map of Neverland", + "height": 240, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/573279-hook-nes-screenshot-map-of-neverland.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/573279-hook-nes-screenshot-map-of-neverland.jpg", + "width": 256 + } + ], + "title": "Hook" + }, + { + "description": "The Game Boy version of The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle shares the story with the SNES/Genesis title by the same developer.

It adapts the story of the original 1974 television series: in 2199, the Earth lies under siege by aliens from Gamila. The surface of the planet has become uninhabitable through bombardment by radioactive meteorites, so the surviving humans live underground. Hope arrives with a message from the planet Iscandar. If humans can somehow travel to Iscandar, they might acquire a device that can cleanse the planet of the radioactive damage. So from the husk of the Japanese WWII battleship Yamato, a powerful new spaceship is built that can fight through the Gamilan blockade and reach Iscandar. Time is of the essence, though: within a year, the built-up radiation will have killed everyone on Earth.\n\nThe game presents the adventures of the Yamato and her crew as a series of turn-based battles, each based on encounters from the series. On a top-down view of the two-dimensional battlefield, icons represent the Yamato, her escort of Black Tiger fighter squadrons, and Gamilan fighters and capital ships. Moving one's own units next to an enemy squadron begins a battle. Battles not involving the Yamato are fought automatically. It is important to keep the losses to the Black Tiger squadrons to a minimum because there is no chance to resupply and only the survivors are taken to the next level.\n\nWhen the Yamato herself takes part in an engagement, the battles are fought via an action sequence. In these the player either controls the Cosmo Zero fighter flown by Susumu Kodai (when under attack by a fighter squadron) or the Yamato's main guns (when engaged with capital ships). From a first-person perspective, enemy ships can be shot at or evaded. It is important to pay attention to the Yamato's damage indicator, but also to the load level of her wave motion gun. This powerful gun can destroy even big fleets with one shot, but only if they are aligned with the gun's firing zone at the moment of discharge, as indicated by the radar screen.\n\nThe goal in each level is usually to get the Yamato to a certain point on the map, representing an obstacle like a Gamilan base or a natural hazard. Once reached, the level is won by completing a button-mashing exercise within a time limit. A password to the next level is awarded afterwards. Another action sequence follows when the Yamato must warp to another system: a bouncing ball moves over a display of the warp systems and must be stopped by a button press at the right point. There are a few tries to get it right, but too many failures mean game over.\n\nBesides the Yamato being destroyed, there is also another way to lose. Each game turn represents a day being removed from the one-year time limit.

Its developer, ASCII, was also the developer that created the Wizardry 1 through 6 remakes for Famicom and Super Famicom, and as such Wizardry Gaiden retains much of the same look and feel of other console titles in the series.

The player transverses the six floor dungeon in 1st person, fighting random encounters and gaining experience to level up.

The scenario was written by the Japanese author Benny Matsuyama, and is not based on any Wizardry game developed by Sir-tech. Developed by ASCII, the same company that created console versions of other Wizardry games, Wizardry Gaiden II shares many similarities to other console entries in the series in style.\n\nThe game takes place in the city of Al-Mar, an oasis haven in the eastern desert. Workers in the city have been working tirelessly to uncover the mystery of nearby ruins, but to no avail. Near-daily cave-ins have killed or stranded many, and the labyrinth's mysteries only seem to deepen. It isn't until a warning carved into a metal plate is discovered that the people of Al-Mar realize the great evil they have awoken: their city was built upon the grave of the ancient sorcerer-emperor Harugisu. \n\nMany who had lost their lives exploring the cave rose from the dead, the the city hung in darkness. Not even the Chamberlin Udin was spared, his own daughter seemingly overpowered by the darkness that has enveloped the city. His own soldiers refused to enter the labyrinth, and the situation grew dire. It was when things grew the darkest that Udin began to look to adventurers, passing through the oasis on their way to the other side of the desert, for help.\n\nYou are one such party of adventurers. You create a party of up to six characters to explore the maze in first person. Turn-based random encounters provide you with experience points and gold, which can be used to increase the power of characters and purchase better equipment. While the enemies are difficult, the most difficult foe is the maze itself, which is filled with fake walls, pits, hidden doors, and sudden teleporters designed to disorient you. Becoming lost in the labyrinth can be certain death, as the only way to replenish magic and gain levels is to return to the town on the first floor of the dungeon. An auto-mapping feature (which can be disabled) can be used on all but the lowest floor of the dungeon.\n\nThe dungeon contains eleven floors, though floors are 16x16 (compared to the 20x20 of other console Wizardry games). The gameplay features, such as spells, classes, and races, remain unchanged from the first Wizardry Gaiden title. The closest gameplay comparison to the main Wizardry series would be Wizardry V: Heart of the Maelstrom, since many of the gameplay changes from that title are included.", + "game_id": 61124, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 7, + "genre_name": "1st-person" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 50, + "genre_name": "Role-Playing (RPG)" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 78, + "genre_name": "Fantasy" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Pacing", + "genre_category_id": 9, + "genre_id": 106, + "genre_name": "Turn-based" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/wizardry-the-second-episode-curse-of-the-ancient-emperor", + "num_votes": 1, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1992-12-26", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/854528-wizardry-the-second-episode-curse-of-the-ancient-emperor-game.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/854528-wizardry-the-second-episode-curse-of-the-ancient-emperor-game.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Intro.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/854529-wizardry-the-second-episode-curse-of-the-ancient-emperor-game.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/854529-wizardry-the-second-episode-curse-of-the-ancient-emperor-game.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Yes, the city.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/854539-wizardry-the-second-episode-curse-of-the-ancient-emperor-game.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/854539-wizardry-the-second-episode-curse-of-the-ancient-emperor-game.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Wizardry: The Second Episode - Curse of the Ancient Emperor" + }, + { + "description": "Toxic Crusaders is a 2D platform game, based on the TV show Toxic Crusader and Toxic Avenger character.\n\nBetween each level, the player can select the Crusader they want to play as: Toxie, No-Zone, Major Disaster, Headbanger and Junkyard.\n\nThe gameplay is standard for side-scrolling platform games: the player goes to the right, shoots enemies, jumps on hills and avoid obstacles.

Single Fight is the standard exhibition mode where you select from any of the 31 boxers available as your opponent and select the maximum number of rounds to fight between three and eight.\n\nWorld Title Trial is your career mode where you have to defeat boxers to earn money and move up the rankings. You begin at rank 29 and can select from the three boxers ranked below you for your first fight. You fight for a purse and winning the fight earns you that purse which you can then use to negotiate a fight against a higher ranked boxer. This mode also gives you the option of selecting the number of rounds per fight, again between three and eight.\n\nIf you choose to have training turned on you can select the training method for Ali in the allocated number of weeks before his next fight. You have four attributes – power, speed, accuracy and stamina. You have five training regimes to choose from – small punch bag, skipping rope, heavy punch bag, weight training and road work training. You also have a sparring option which allows you to choose your combo punches for your fight.\n\nIn the fight itself, the boxers compete in two-minute rounds. The boxers have a power meter which goes down as they get fatigued. You can punch with either the A or B button and punches deplete the health meter which is an interactive silhouette boxer. The health meter is black at full health and turns white with each punch landed, you will need to land a series of punches to weaken your opponent as the meter rises again with rest. If the meter is fully white you can finish off your opponent with a combo as the word flashes on the screen. Successfully initiating your combo knocks the opponent down in which if he does not answer to the referee’s ten count then the fight is over. The fight can also be won by a TKO (3 knock downs in a single round) or a points decision where instead of the standard 10 points per round system, the game uses a point system where a point is scored for every punch landed during the round as well as 25 points for a knock down and the one with the most points wins the fight. \n\nAt the end of a training session the game gives you a password containing 16 characters of letters, numbers and symbols which you use to continue your game by selecting Continue Old Game in the main menu.", + "game_id": 61763, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 5, + "genre_name": "Sports" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Sports Themes", + "genre_category_id": 3, + "genre_id": 36, + "genre_name": "Boxing" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 126, + "genre_name": "3rd-person (Other)" + } + ], + "moby_score": 1.3, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/muhammad-ali-heavyweight-boxing_", + "num_votes": 3, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/740236-muhammad-ali-heavyweight-boxing-game-boy-screenshot-title.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/740236-muhammad-ali-heavyweight-boxing-game-boy-screenshot-title.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Select Game Type.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/740237-muhammad-ali-heavyweight-boxing-game-boy-screenshot-select.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/740237-muhammad-ali-heavyweight-boxing-game-boy-screenshot-select.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Single Fight.

It is loosely based on the 1991 Formula One season.\n\nThe gameplay is very similar to the Game Boy's F-1 Race and Nakajima Satoru F-1 Hero, however the degree of difficulty is higher. The track map is not displayed on the screen, which means the player has to basically memorize each turn in order to not get off the track or collide with the advertising signs.\n\nIn the first play-through, the grand prix mode has sixteen rounds divided into eight different levels. In each of these levels there's a main rival to beat. A password will be displayed when the player finish successfully each level, while the game over screen appears if the number of points obtained is lower than those obtained by the rival. In the first play-through all these rivals (except the first one) will not compete since the very beginning of the championship. One example is Satoru Nakajima which will only appear in the last round.\n\nHowever if the player use a specific level password, the championship will start all over again with all the competitors and difficulty (in terms of the qualifying time) of that level. Briefly, to play a real competitive championship, the player will have to finish Round 15 first to access the last password.\n\nBefore every race, there's the setting option where the player can customize the machine by adjusting six parts: tires, wings, brake, mission, suspension, and steer. While racing, four parts can be damaged. \"Pit in\" will fix these \"trouble parts\".\n\nTo enter the race and compete against five other drivers, a minimum time in the qualifying session (which consists of two laps) must be obtained. At certain point during the first play-through, with advancing levels, the difficulty will increase, meaning that the player has to make an almost \"immaculate\" lap in order to obtain a good time and therefore be qualified.\n\nOther modes presented in the game include: warming up, multi game, and music test.", + "game_id": 62934, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 6, + "genre_name": "Racing / driving" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 9, + "genre_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 128, + "genre_name": "Behind view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Vehicular Themes", + "genre_category_id": 11, + "genre_id": 188, + "genre_name": "Automobile" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Vehicular Themes", + "genre_category_id": 11, + "genre_id": 192, + "genre_name": "Track racing" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.9, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/nakajima-satoru-kansh-f-1-hero-gb", + "num_votes": 2, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1991-12-27", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 774, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/275707-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/275707-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 673 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Before the title screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/650541-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-screenshot-before.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/650541-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-screenshot-before.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Title screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/650542-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-screenshot-title.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/650542-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-screenshot-title.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Menu.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/650543-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-screenshot-menu.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/650543-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-screenshot-menu.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Warming up... circuit select.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/650544-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-screenshot-warming.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/650544-nakajima-satoru-kanshu-f-1-hero-gb-game-boy-screenshot-warming.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Nakajima Satoru Kanshū F-1 Hero GB" + }, + { + "description": "F1 Pole Position is a Formula One racing video game released for the Game Boy by Ubisoft.

Modes available are the usual: grand prix, warming up (or training), multi game (or multi player), and options.\n\nSome other changes (or improvements if possible) in relation to its predecessor: the more detailed background and tracks. Also, making the turns without getting off the track is much more easier due to a better view (even though the track map is still not displayed on the screen).\n\nDuring the qualifying and races, \"retire\" will appear if the player crashes too much, or simply want to stop racing. In the Japanese version, before every race, Satoru Nakajima will give some tips about certain areas of the circuit, while this feature was removed from the Western version. One other difference is that Ayrton Senna is included in the Japanese version, while Michael Andretti replaces Senna in the Western one.\n\nIn both versions the player has to compete in two full seasons. The rounds are basically split into different parts, in each one a minimum goal must be achieved (to qualify and finish the race x number of times) so that the contract is renewed.

Like other versions, the game combines side-scrolling action and driving, but has unique levels and gameplay mechanics.\n\nThe bulk of the game consists of side-scrolling platforming. The player controls action hero Jack Slater who has to find the level exit before the timer runs out. Standing in his way are the occasional bad guy, of which there are only two standard varieties: one is armed with a gun and rolling bombs, the other with a baseball bat. Slater can defeat them with punches or roundhouse kicks. Other obstacles can only be overcome by using special items, with the item available depending on the level. There are fire extinguishers, keys, bombs and upward-launching rockets. To get an item, Slater must collect a number of movie tickets flying in the air.\n\nTwo of the game's levels are driving-based. Seen from the top, the player controls Slater's car and must again reach the level end before the timer runs out. To do so, a turbo boost must be acquired (for a large jump or higher top speed), again by collecting movie tickets. Some tickets are floating above the road, others can only be acquired by ramming other cars and collecting them from the wreckage. Only the Game Gear version includes a small section recreating the \"chicken\" scenes from the film: Slater's and the bad guy's car are situated head-to-head and the player must mash buttons to survive the following head-on collision.\n\nThe game also includes a few boss fights against a helicopter and the movie villain The Ripper.", + "game_id": 64264, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 6, + "genre_name": "Racing / driving" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 1.8, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/last-action-hero__", + "num_votes": 7, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + }, + { + "first_release_date": "1993", + "platform_id": 25, + "platform_name": "Game Gear" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/65395-last-action-hero-game-boy-screenshot-title.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/65395-last-action-hero-game-boy-screenshot-title.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "credits", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/65394-last-action-hero-game-boy-screenshot-credits.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/65394-last-action-hero-game-boy-screenshot-credits.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "punching the air", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/65396-last-action-hero-game-boy-screenshot-punching-the-air.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/65396-last-action-hero-game-boy-screenshot-punching-the-air.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "A bad guy", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/65397-last-action-hero-game-boy-screenshot-a-bad-guy.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/65397-last-action-hero-game-boy-screenshot-a-bad-guy.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Last Action Hero" + }, + { + "description": "Goal! is a soccer game where you must beat a certain amount of teams to become the champion.

All levels are based on action set pieces from the film and include the infiltration of the chateau, the pursuit of Aziz in the mall and in the park and the final confrontation in the office building. In each level, Harry is set with a certain task: connecting a modem to a computer to download data, finding Aziz, or disarming a nuclear device. Hordes of terrorists stand in his way and must be taken out with a variety of guns. Harry starts a level only with a standard pistol that has unlimited ammo but must still be reloaded after 15 shots. He must pick up more powerful guns like a machine gun, a shotgun, grenades and mines. Ammunition for each of these must be collected separately. The terrorists are armed with similar weapons but also some heavier ones like grenade launchers and flamethrowers. Some civilians can also be found walking around the levels. These should not be shot: killing three means restarting the level. Health powerups and extra lives can be found lying about the levels.

Both the new expansion teams Carolina and Jacksonville as well as rule changes like the two-point conversion are incorporated.\n\nGame modes have been cut down from the predecessor: the only remaining ones are exhibition, season and playoffs. In addition to the 30 regular teams, there is an All-Madden team for use in exhibition games only. Most features from the predecessor make a return: selectable game length (20, 40 or 60 minutes), freely definable audibles, timeouts, and detailed stats. The playbook has been reworked, substitutions are now available for all positions and the game features quarterback speech for the first time.\n\nGame perspective (top-down, vertically scrolling) and controls are mostly unchanged from the predecessor.

While based on the 16-bit version, it adapts only a few of that game's levels directly, while others are completely new or just based on the general concept.\n\nPlayers control the young lion Simba through nine levels (the NES version includes only the first six), most of which are side-scrolling platform affairs. At the beginning of the game, where Simba is a cub, he can jump and roar. Roaring stuns some enemies, jumping on top of them defeats them. Cub Simba can also roll along the ground, which allows him to destroy some barriers. Starting in level seven (i.e. not in the NES version), Simba has grown into an adult and gains the ability to scratch enemies with his paws to defeat them, but loses the rolling ability. Enemies to be destroyed or avoided include lizards, porcupines (which must be stunned to turn them over because they can't be jumped on), bugs, and spiders. The film's hyena lackeys also appear and are tougher to destroy than most other enemies. The final boss in the game is of course Simba's uncle Scar. Powerups to be picked up are bug icons that partially or fully restore health, one-ups, and lion icons that create a savepoint in the level. \n\nThere is some variation from the standard platforming: the film's stampede scene is recreated in a level where Simba is seen from the top and runs automatically to the right. He must be moved up and down to avoid being trampled by water buffaloes. Another level is seen in the standard platforming view, but consists of a number of interconnected rooms in which hyenas wait for Simba. He must defeat them before the entrance to the next room opens up. Picking up a special bug icon found in some of the levels activates the mini-game \"Bug Patrol\". In this game, the player controls Pumbaa who must catch bugs thrown from the top of the screen, avoiding big spiders.

The goal in each level is to collect a number of magnetic ID cards which open up the level exit. Many different species of dinosaur stand in Grant's way: walking, flying and even the swimming kind. To defend himself, he has access to a gun as well as hand grenades, both with unlimited ammunition. When going for a swim, the gun turns into a harpoon. When he gets hurt, he can heal himself through medkits that can be found lying about. Extra lives are also available.\n\nSet between the platforming levels are various boss fights against powerful enemies like a Triceratops, Pteranodon, Velociraptor and T-Rex, each of which requires a unique strategy to defeat.\n\nFurther variation from standard platforming comes in two T-Rex pursuit stages. In these, a T-Rex approaches from the left side of the screen which scrolls to the right automatically, allowing for little to no margin of error in choosing the right path. These levels also contain ID cards. These do not have to be collected, but picking them all up results in an extra life being awarded.", + "game_id": 68418, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 17, + "genre_name": "Side view" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 21, + "genre_name": "Platform" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Other Attributes", + "genre_category_id": 6, + "genre_id": 82, + "genre_name": "Licensed" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 2, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues_", + "num_votes": 4, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1994-12", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 803, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/199410-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/199410-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Opening animation", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/162874-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/162874-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/162873-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/162873-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Zone 1-1", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/162875-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/162875-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Zone 1's story", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/162876-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/162876-jurassic-park-part-2-the-chaos-continues-game-boy-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Jurassic Park Part 2: The Chaos Continues" + }, + { + "description": "Malibu Beach Volleyball lets players compete in two on two beach volleyball matches.

The owner is afraid that someone wants him dead and wishes the detective's help in preventing that. Detective Mōri, together with his daughter Ran, freeloader Conan and the Junior Detective League (Conan's friends from elementary school) arrive at the scene, most of them with the intention of having fun. However, soon after exchanging greetings with the staff managing the park, the air turns grim as the first murder occurs.\n\nMeitantei Conan: Chika Yūenchi Satsujin Jiken is the first game based on the manga Detective Conan by Gōshō Aoyama, serialized in Weekly Shōnen Sunday since 1994. It is an original story, although the amusement park theme is constantly revisited in the franchise, especially in anime and game form. The protagonist is Conan Edogawa, the alter ego of Shinichi Kudō, a high school detective who was transformed unwillingly into a kid. Chika Yūenchi Satsujin Jiken itself is an adventure game where the task is to solve murder cases. The player controls Conan from a top-down perspective and can move around freely in the park, seeking for clues or engaging other characters in conversation. Sometimes it's possible to choose what to ask a character, but that has no outcome on how the case proceeds. The investigation is moved forward by talking to the right people, finding the necessary clues, solving puzzles and by \"thinking\". The latter is an actual gameplay mechanic where Conan analyses certain events that he finds suspicious. It ends with the player selecting one out of two deductions. If the incorrect answer was chosen, the accusation will not hold and the murderer will get away. Furthermore, it's possible to officially accuse a suspect with insufficient proof and without finishing the entire scenario, even if this results in arresting the wrong person or ending the game prematurely.\n\nThe game has three different murder cases, each corresponding to one of the attractions in the amusement park: the roller coaster, the horror house and the huge maze. The first attraction Conan enters after being greeted by Nobuhara and the staff decides which scenario the player will play. In order to switch to another murder case, the game must be started over. The only way to resume a previous session is via passwords the game gives at specific points during the scenario.\n\nA standard feature adopted by later installments is the presence of mini games. Two of them (a claw crane and a skateboarding game) can be played at any time in the Game Center, while others must be found or unlocked.", + "game_id": 68769, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 2, + "genre_name": "Adventure" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 30, + "genre_name": "Puzzle elements" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Narrative Theme/Topic", + "genre_category_id": 8, + "genre_id": 55, + "genre_name": "Detective / mystery" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Art Style", + "genre_category_id": 13, + "genre_id": 57, + "genre_name": "Anime / manga" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3.2, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/meitantei-conan-chika-yenchi-satsujin-jiken", + "num_votes": 3, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1996-12-27", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": { + "height": 925, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/l/370781-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "platforms": [ + "Game Boy" + ], + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/s/370781-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-front-cover.jpg", + "width": 800 + }, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/730278-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/730278-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "A rather typical request for the Detective Conan franchise.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/730279-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/730279-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "The owner shows us around the huge maze.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/730280-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/730280-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "It's just a toy.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/730282-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-screenshot.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/730282-meitantei-conan-chika-yuenchi-satsujin-jiken-game-boy-screenshot.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Meitantei Conan: Chika Yūenchi Satsujin Jiken" + }, + { + "description": "In Your Face is one of the first basketball games released for a portable system.

In story mode (which is based on characters from Compile's RPG series Madō Monogatari), the player controls Arle Nadja (Silvana in the English translation of the arcade version), a young sorceress, whose goal is to defeat Satan. To do so, she has to win 12 battles against his minions until she can meet him in a final confrontation. The game offers an extra training mode against three lesser opponents, as well as the ability to start from level 4 of the main game.\n\nDuring a match, pairs of puyos fall down from the top of the screen into each player's field. They can be moved left or right, rotated in either direction and made to drop faster. The goal is to arrange puyos of the same color into patterns of at least four, with horizontal or vertical (but no diagonal) connections. Doing so removes them from the field (with any unconnected puyos falling down) while at the same time sending garbage blocks into the opponent's field. Creating patterns of more than four, several different patterns at the same time, or chain reactions creates more garbage blocks. The garbage blocks can only be removed by creating patterns adjacent to them. The player whose playing field reaches the top first loses. In single-player mode, the falling speed of the puyos increases level by level and each of the enemies plays in a unique style.\n\nThe home ports also add an endless single-player mode, in which there is no opponent (and thus no garbage blocks) and one simply plays for a high score, similar to the MSX/Famicom version.\n\nUnique to the Game Gear version is an additional quest mode. Similar to the mission mode of the original MSX/Famicom version, it presents a series of pre-filled playing fields with a specific task, like making a minimum number of puyos disappear in one move, or removing all puyos of a certain color.

Arcane plans to release a serum into the atmosphere that will turn everyone into mutated beings called Un-Men. Besides stopping Arcane, Swamp Thing also has to heal the environmental damage the villain and his henchmen have created.\n\nThe game consists of four levels: at the start of the game, players can choose whether to start in the desert, arctic or forest, all of which have to be completed (in any order) before the final level opens up. In each level, players will confront various wild animals under Arcane's control and can defeat them with a shot attack. Firing a shot actually reduces Swamp Thing's life energy - it is a good idea to catch the shot when it boomerangs back to regain it. Collecting water icons also restores life energy. Besides energy there is also a second meter that slowly drains automatically - it represents the environmental health and can be refilled by helping friendly animals (like turning an upended turtle back up) or recycling trash lying about the levels with a special recycling attack.\n\nAt the end of each level, a powerful boss enemy awaits.

When Japan is invaded by the minions of a dark lord, the shogun sets out to hire the best warriors in the land to combat the enemy. \n\nPlayers start with 5000 yen and must begin by hiring their mercenaries. The team has four slots and can be recruited from five different character types (servant, ninja, monk, samurai and mystic) in any combination (including more than one of any character). The characters differ in hiring price, starting health, weapons (amount of projectiles, speed and direction), and their special attack.\n\nThe game consists of six levels, seen from an angled top-down/side-view perspective, with the screen scrolling automatically to the right. The mercenaries must shoot hordes of enemies to get to the next level, including several bosses. The mercenaries can change their formation between four different options: a vertical line, a diamond shape, a square shape and a horizontal arrowhead formation. It is also possible to switch the character in the lead position, leading to a large variety of tactical options. The hit points of each team member are counted individually, so if one is killed the remaining ones can fight on. Besides their standard weapon, each character also has a special suicide attack, triggered by pressing both buttons at the same time. These are usually highly devastating attacks, but the monk's power actually allows the group to skip ahead through a large part of the level.\n\nKilled enemies drop coins of 10 yen in value that disappear after a short while if not picked up. The money reserve is used in a matter of ways: between stages, new recruits can be hired to replace fallen fighters. There are also various buildings in the levels that allow the spending of money. Cafes offer various items that restore or increase health and, in some levels, can change the character class of the team leader. There is a fortune-reading at a temple which makes it possible to recruit a hidden character, and the possibility to resurrect fallen comrades at a daibutsu. Only temples don't cost money and offer healing for free.", + "game_id": 74670, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 9, + "genre_name": "Arcade" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Gameplay", + "genre_category_id": 4, + "genre_id": 22, + "genre_name": "Shooter" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 131, + "genre_name": "2D scrolling" + } + ], + "moby_score": 3, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/mercenary-force", + "num_votes": 1, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1990-04-27", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Mercenary Force title screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/804948-mercenary-force-game-boy-screenshot-mercenary-force-title.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/804948-mercenary-force-game-boy-screenshot-mercenary-force-title.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Tenjin Kaisen title screen.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/804949-mercenary-force-game-boy-screenshot-tenjin-kaisen-title-screen.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/804949-mercenary-force-game-boy-screenshot-tenjin-kaisen-title-screen.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "The art of hiring.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/804950-mercenary-force-game-boy-screenshot-the-art-of-hiring.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/804950-mercenary-force-game-boy-screenshot-the-art-of-hiring.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Let's combat th'enemy then.", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/804951-mercenary-force-game-boy-screenshot-let-s-combat-th-enemy.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/804951-mercenary-force-game-boy-screenshot-let-s-combat-th-enemy.jpg", + "width": 160 + } + ], + "title": "Mercenary Force" + }, + { + "description": "Jack Nicklaus Golf brings Accolade's golf series to the Game Boy with a selection of courses from the computer versions and most features and options also present.\n\nFour courses are available: Jack's Greatest, Castle Pines and Desert Mountain as previously seen in Greatest 18 Holes and Muirfield Village from Unlimited.

The gameplay is essentially the same as that game and resembles a sliding puzzle game but has a different set of pictures. Unlike traditional sliding puzzles all the pieces are not on the board from the start but are launched by the player from the top left corner of the board. The pieces can then be pushed horizontally or vertically with the goal being to recreate a picture which can be shown at any time by pressing a button. The game is timed and if a puzzle is not completed fast enough, one of three lives will be lost.\n\nAll features from the original game are retained. This include doors that open and close and that can be used to push pieces out of play. They will then be put pack into the queue and be ready to be launched again. There are also various bonus items that can be pushed into each other for bonus points or time increases. Some items have negative effects such as bombs that explode after five seconds (and take a life away). Bombs have to be pushed out through a door or combined with a water tap to be destroyed. At some places there are cracks in the walls. Pushing a piece into a crack causes it to bounce back to its original position.

The cup allows to set the number of rounds (one to four) and some rules can be switched on or off for each round individually (number of legs, extra time, penalties). The league on the other hand has the options number of teams (between one and seven), how often the teams face each other (between once and four times) and if a win rewards two or three points.

In Japan, Ninja Taro is known as \"Sengoku Ninja-kun\", and is one of several titles in the Japanese \"Ninja Jajamaru-kun\" series.\n\nAs the eponymous Ninja Taro (or \"Ninja-kun\" in the Japanese release), you are tasked by your teacher, Kashin-Koji, to seek out Lord Nobu (\"Nobunaga Oda\"), who has requested the service of the land's greatest ninja. The path there is dangerous, but upon reaching Lord Nobu at Geko Castle, it is revealed that the evil Lord Shin Takeda (\"Takeda Shingen\") is rumored to have died. You are tasked with investigating the rumors to see if they are true or not.\n\nLord Shin's castle is located in Kai Province, not too far from Geko Castle, but the direct path there is blocked by a \"mighty beast\", a creature who is said to be able to withstand all weapons. Upon returning to your teacher for advice, you are tasked with seeking out your teacher's old friend, Kondo, in Iga Province. However, Kondo is nowhere to be found, but instead Kondo's daughter, who you must convince to help you before you're able to continue on your quest...\n\nAlthough you begin the game with your Ninja Sword and Throwing Stars, many other items can be found to assist you on your quest. Additional weapons, the Masamune and the Throwing Knives, are not as strong as your primary weapons, but are more agile; medicinal Herbs and Potions may be found that can heal you; and unique tools such as Camouflage and Fire will also be at your disposal, among many others.\n\nNinja Taro pulls stylistically from many sources, including Japanese history as well as classical mythology. Besides referencing real historical places and people, such as the real 16th century daimyo, Oda Nobunaga, Ninja Taro references many creatures from Japanese folklore, such as ghosts, tengu, and ogres. Additionally, some elements of the game's design are decidedly more modern, with some monstrous adversaries and locales seemingly out of popular Japanese animation.\n\nIn Ninja Taro, the player character's walking speed is very slow compared to similar games, but most enemies and adversaries are programmed with this in mind. \n\nNinja Taro appears to share its game engine with other action RPGs put out by American Sammy, namely: Rolan's Curse and Rolan's Curse 2.", + "game_id": 129938, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, +

This just won't do. Luckily he stumbles across a small sun, named Phillip, and comes up with a solution: by shining light on every flower, they can quickly grow back up. This action-puzzle game is a bit like Qix in reverse. Players control Marlowe as he flies around in a stage from an overhead view; meanwhile, Phillip moves on his own around a set path on either the outside of the level or the centre of a level. Pressing the A button fires a light beam from Phillip to Marlowe's position, hitting anything in the middle. Hitting a flower with a sunbeam will help it grow, with most flowers taking a few hits to grow completely. Enemies wander the stage, but hitting them with a sunbeam takes them out temporarily; sometimes, they'll drop powerup items as well. Holding B also speeds up Phillip, granting a little extra control over stages. Players start the game with a choice of several themed worlds, which they can complete in any order, and must complete all of the worlds in order to finish the game.", + "game_id": 150431, + "genres": [ + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 1, + "genre_name": "Action" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Perspective", + "genre_category_id": 2, + "genre_id": 13, + "genre_name": "Top-down" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Pacing", + "genre_category_id": 9, + "genre_id": 15, + "genre_name": "Real-time" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Art Style", + "genre_category_id": 13, + "genre_id": 57, + "genre_name": "Anime / manga" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Setting", + "genre_category_id": 10, + "genre_id": 78, + "genre_name": "Fantasy" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Basic Genres", + "genre_category_id": 1, + "genre_id": 118, + "genre_name": "Puzzle" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Visual Presentation", + "genre_category_id": 12, + "genre_id": 133, + "genre_name": "Fixed / flip-screen" + }, + { + "genre_category": "Interface/Control", + "genre_category_id": 7, + "genre_id": 168, + "genre_name": "Direct control" + } + ], + "moby_score": 0, + "moby_url": "http://www.mobygames.com/game/taiyou-no-tenshi-marlowe-ohanabatake-wa-dai-panic", + "num_votes": 0, + "official_url": null, + "platforms": [ + { + "first_release_date": "1994-05-27", + "platform_id": 10, + "platform_name": "Game Boy" + } + ], + "sample_cover": null, + "sample_screenshots": [ + { + "caption": "Title screen", + "height": 144, + "image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/1022637-taiyou-no-tenshi-marlowe-ohanabatake-wa-dai-panic-game-boy.png", + "thumbnail_image": "http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/s/1022637-taiyou-no-tenshi-marlowe-ohanabatake-wa-dai-panic-game-boy.jpg", + "width": 160 + }, + { + "caption": "Intro scene.
