1999 – Hore, Mitakotoka! Seikimatsu is a 1992 sci-fi board game developed for the Famicom (NES) by Coconuts Japan. Playing like a mix of Monopoly and The Game of Life, up to four players navigate a vast virtual game board to stop an alien invasion and prevent the end of human civilization. Rather than relying on traditional dice rolls to move around the board, players must strategize using a card-based movement system.
How to Play
Your objective is to complete the Sugoroku-style board and thwart the aliens before time runs out. The game relies on the standard NES controller layout, which corresponds to the arrow keys for movement, Z for the A button to make selections, and X for the B button to cancel. Press Enter for Start and Shift for Select when navigating menus.
Tips
- Since movement is dictated by cards rather than random dice rolls, you can plan your landing spots several turns in advance to maximize rewards and avoid hazards.
- Sound Test: You can access a hidden sound test menu by starting a new game, and holding A + B + Select + Start while the other characters are being generated.
