🎮 Play Amidar Scramble Hardware Online (Arcade)

Amidar is a classic arcade maze game released by Konami (this 1982 version runs on Scramble hardware) that challenges you to claim territory while dodging enemies. The game alternates between two distinct stages: one where you play as a gorilla collecting coconuts while evading warriors, and another where you control a paint roller coloring the grid while fleeing from pigs. By moving around the perimeter of a rectangle, you fill it in, and claiming every box on the screen completes the level.

How to Play

Use the arrow keys to navigate your character along the grid lines. Your objective is to travel around every square to fill it in. You can press the Z or X key to jump, which temporarily causes enemies to pass harmlessly under you. You have a limited number of jumps per stage, so use them only when cornered.

Tips

• Enemies in Amidar follow predictable movement patterns at intersections, always preferring to continue straight or take specific turns. Observe their behavior to avoid getting trapped.
• Save your jumps for absolute emergencies. You only get three jumps per level, and using them too early can leave you defenseless when the maze gets crowded.
• Try to paint the center boxes first, as the edges often provide longer, safer escape routes when enemies close in.
