Game & Watch Super Color: Spitball Sparky

Description

Game & Watch Super Color: Spitball Sparky is the first of only two released games in the seventh series of Game & Watch games published by Nintendo, also known as the Super Color Screen Series. This series arrived near the end of the G&W lifespan in Japan, therefor weren't the success Nintendo expected. This series, in contrast to the previous, uses vertically (portrait) orientated screens instead of horizontal (landscape) screens. Despite the name, the Super Color G&W titles aren't using colored liquid crystals, but only use applied colored filters to simulate the presence thereof.

Spitball Sparky 's gameplay is similar to the game Breakout, where the player controls Sparky, a small character with a trumpet shaped mouth, catching and spitting a ball capable of destroying the on-screen blocks. As one progresses further into the game, the walls start moving or increase their numbers. One can control the ball even before it reaches Sparky's mouth and apply a different force by adjusting the character's breath. In Game B, certain blocks blink and require two hits before they disappear.
