Released in May 1986.
Goemon is based on Ishikawa Goemon, an infamous outlaw in 16th century Japan. Some stories tell of Goemon becoming a criminal after stealing from his cruel master and killing his pursuers. Later he becomes a merchant in Kyoto and Osaka by day and a thief by night. Whilst some remember him as simply a thief, others celebrate him as being a Japanese Robin Hood, robbing from the rich to give to the poor.
- SCORING -
Collecting a weapon : 100 points.
Killing a warrior : 200 points.
Killing a second warrior : 400 points.
Killing a third warrior : 800 points.
Warriors when powered up : 800 points each.
Killing a flying boss : 1,600 points.
Collecting a gold bar at the end of a level : 800-4,000 points.
- TIPS AND TRICKS -
* Attack the moon by Kiseru (Button 1). If your attack hits, the rabbit will fall down.
* Warriors can only fire at you when on a platform, so bouncing them up into the air is useful to prevent them firing.
* When you collect a golden hammer keep running right, and warriors will keep appearing and running into you for 800 points each.
* If you are faced with several warriors, bounce a few off the bottom of the screen to get them out of your way.
* Try not to use the last 'head weapon' you collect, as you can carry it forward to the next stage. It's very useful to start a stage already armed.
* When collecting the gold bars if you jump to try to get the furthest to the right, it is worth a higher score.
