The Berlinwall

The Berlinwall is a video game in the action genre developed by Inter State Co., Ltd. and published by Kaneko Co., Ltd. originally released in 1991. It is currently playable on Game Gear.

The Berlinwall is the Game Gear version of the arcade game The Berlinwall. Although the game mechanics are identical, there are some significant changes. First, the game adds a story: the player takes the role of a boy looking for his mother who wanted to visit a neighboring town. Unfortunately, all he finds is a huge wall. Trying to sneak through a hole, he is transported to a strange and hostile place...

Each level (a non-scrolling screen) consists of several platforms interconnected with stairs. Another thing you encounter in the levels are monsters roaming around and trying to trap and kill the protagonist. Your only form of defense is the hammer that is used to make holes in the platforms: when the monsters pass over them, they get trapped. By using the hammer on those trapped monsters, the platform fills up again, the monster falls and is killed. There are two added advantages: a falling monster is deadly to other monsters and leaves a power-up, for example, a time limit extension or a stronger hammer.... Sometimes the player encounters boss monsters that require a bigger hole.

While some levels are based on the arcade version, others are different. This version also adds a store where the player can buy power-ups. It can be visited before facing the world boss.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
