Helmet (Game & Watch): Difference between revisions

'''''Helmet''''' is one of the various games from the [[Game & Watch]] series that was released as a part of the Gold series on February 21, 1981. It was released as '''''Headache''''' in Europe, due to vulgar connotations of the word "Helmet" in the region. In this game, the player has to run across from the exit of one building and into the entrance of another while avoiding the various hardware tools that fall from the sky. The player scores by crossing the screen and waiting for five tools to drop. The microgame [[GAME & WARIO (microgame)|GAME & WARIO]] in ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase]]'' is based on ''Helmet''.

In Classic Mode, a construction worker will attempt to get from one house to another while avoiding falling tools. However, the man can only enter the house at the right when its door is open. The man cannot return to the house on the left after he exits it. The player scores by crossing the screen and waiting for five tools to drop. As the game progresses, the tools will start to fall at a faster speed, making it harder for the man to escape harm. Getting hit by a tool will result in a miss. At 200 or 500 points, any misses the player has will be removed. When the player gets three misses, they receive a [[Game Over]]. In Game B, the tools fall faster, and the door to the house on the right stays closed longer.
