This is one of the more unique games I’ve come across for the FM-7. I picked it up quite a while ago but if memory serves, I believe it came in a lot of several games. The box and tape are in good condition, but unfortunately it’s missing the manual.
It’s a colorful game with crisp, highly detailed graphics. You play a bird-mounted warrior and travel around the clouds looking for enemies amid cloud formations and fortresses, and shoot them with arrows. If you hit an archer, he falls satisfyingly from the castle.
The combination of bird flapping physics and arrow trajectory makes it rather challenging, and capturing a screenshot without pausing is all but impossible. One thing that seems a little absurd is that if you fall below the clouds, you die. I guess your bird can’t fly below cloud level… because that’s the sky down there.
Once in a while, you find a screen with some sort of bonus. Also, beware of surprise hands!
Interesting game, requires a lot of concentration. I remember coming across this one on a MZ-2200 compilation disk.
Yeah, you’ve gotta be pretty precise, the game isn’t forgiving at all. I’d love to try the MZ-220 version!
