Game & Watch Climber

Climber is one of the games released in the Game & Watch Series by Nintendo in 1986. It was developed by Nintendo R&D1.

Story[]

A boy with wisdom and courage known as the Climber, one day, sets out on a training trip to the Block Mountain where the Blockmen live to become warrior. On the way, he meets Lord Meiji who grants him a pair of special boots which will enable him to jump very high, an armor to break ceilings and a head band which will help him find a sword that can slash Dragalo the dragon with one stroke. No one knows how many of the obstacles will the Climber be able to overcome with the help of the mysterious bird, Hentori, and continue his quest.

Objective[]

The objective of the game is to control Climber by jumping through a tower of platforms and landing on them, and by avoiding monsters and blockmen. The goal is to either grab Hentori the bird or slash Dragalo the dragon. The other goal is to make the highest score possible.

Misc.[]

Climber is one of the Game & Watch games that never made it anywhere else, but the elements of the game are quite similar to Ice Climber and Kid Icarus. Climber was one of the few games on Game & Watch that was released more than once; it was released first as a regular Game & Watch model and another one with a Crystal Screen which was part of the Crystal Screen Series. Climber was also an unlockable Game & Watch game in Game & Watch Gallery 4.
