This has a GB version which I’m reviewing but isn’t listed as a version. I’ll update it if that ever changes (edit, thank you for whoever updated), also here is the cover art.
There’s not much to say about this game, it’s a fun little puzzle game that originated on the MSX. You drop eggs on seesaws to bounce your chicks up to the top while a hungry wolf is out for them constantly. You need to have the eggs hit him before he gets a chance to eat them. There’s a lot of strategy especially if you want the high score as you have to make sure you do it fast, have as many chicks as possible, and beat the level in less than 30 eggs. Though you don’t have to worry if you only want to see the end as long as you only have one chick alive. Lose them all and it’s game over with limited continues.
There’s also some bonus games that can award you with a new baby chicken. The first is catching eggs with a basket while also not having the wolf eat the babies holding it. The second and third are both mashing B before the chicken or chicks meet their demise. The last one is whacking wolves from eating a chick.
Yeah it’s a pretty neat game with five difficulty options too for people to enjoy and be able to see the ending on any of them. Surprised no one talks about it but maybe GB puzzle games are just usually at the bottom of the barrel of discussion if you’re not one of the big hits or slightly big niche. Give it a try if it looks or sounds fun to you! What’s surprising is it doesn’t even have a US release despite the only thing Japanese is the logo of the game. How weird, wonder why it wouldn’t get a US re-WHAT THE FU-
