Which way to enjoy Japan Yokai edition or Western Yokai edition?Bosstech's "Youkai Detective Chimachi"
Retro games of memories that we loved
パッケージイラストには、ゲームに登場する日本妖怪と西洋妖怪が描かれています。大きな目玉のキャラクターが主人公、妖怪探偵ちまちまです。A series of nostalgic advertisements and game screens at the time, a serial corner that is immersed in the history and nostalgia of domestic PCs.This time, the action game "Yokai Detective Chimachi" released by Bose Tech is the one.
In the early 1980s, various soft houses held a “program contest” to recruit works from users.Bosthech also held the first program contest in 1984, where he was selected as the best work, "Youkai Detective Chimachi".The author was "Alex Bros", and the genre was a real -time (story) game.The opening story is as follows.
第一回プログラムコンテストは賞金総額300万円で行われ、100万円がもらえる最優秀賞に選ばれたのが、SMC-777版として応募された『妖怪探偵ちまちま』でした。
One day, there was an incident in which our idol Sayuri, who was shooting in Jouzoumori, was kidnapped by the youkai crew.This is your task this time, to get rid of them and rescue Sayuri.The only information we grasped is that she has been kidnapped around the 90th anniversary of Juzoumori, and we do not know anything about their purpose and personnel composition.As usual, I prepared a deadly weapon for you.This weapon is in the shape of a red fireball, but it is a small bomb with a built -in computer.Please be careful and handle it.If you do poorly, you may die with that weapon ...
The purpose is to manipulate the youkai detective "Chimachima" and defeat all the youkai that appears in the graveyard.The number of youkai appear on each side, and if they were all cleared up, the stage would be cleared, the difficulty would increase a little, and the system would go to the next surface.
日本妖怪編のタイトル画面とステージは、このような感じです。妖怪が出現する墓石が日本式になっていて、出現する妖怪もろくろ首などの日本妖怪でした。In the case of a space key, a fireball can be fired, and if you press the space key again, it will explode and explode.The youkai could be defeated by involving the blast or hitting the fireball on the guts of the heart.The point of defeating with a blast is the same as the "bomb man" introduced earlier, but unlike that, it can be exploded at any time in this work.Nevertheless, for some reason, when the enemy approached the protagonist, the fireball exploded only, and there were many times that the enemy and self -destruction were destroyed (laughs).Looking at the play of others, I think, "It's stupid to explode at such a time," but it is very strange because if you play yourself, you may be self -destructed in the same way.
こちらは、西洋妖怪編のタイトル画面とステージです。墓石が十字架の付いたオブジェに変わっているほか、フランケンシュタインといった西洋妖怪が現れます。Once the fireball explodes, there is a time lag before you can shoot next, so you have to escape during that time.Rather, unless it exploded, it would stay on the screen all the time, so it was definitely better to use the technique of applying it to the gear of the youkai's heart and defeating it.The X1 version released later will proceed without doing that, so maybe the balance adjustment of the PC-88 version is not good.
火の玉は、主人公と同時にテンキーで操作できます。そのため、火の玉だけを見て動かしていると、主人公があらぬ方向に進んで敵に体当たりしている……なんてことも。なお、主人公のちまちまは火の玉に当たっても大丈夫なので、それを上手に使うのもテクニックの一つです。The enemy who appears can choose either a Japanese monster or a Western monster before the game starts.Thinking routines for each side were the same for both the Japanese Youkai Western Youkai, and the stage configuration and graphics were only different.However, if you want to play with another monster, you need to reset and select it.In the case of the tape version, it is divided into Japanese youkai tape and Western monster tape from the beginning, so you have to do it from the place to load it again.
If you get used to it, you can easily clear one side, but from the two sides, the enemy will move in response to the key pressed by the player (if the main character moves to the right, all the enemy characters will move to the right), so it is the opposite.If you do not attack in the strategy you took, the game will be over in no time.
爆風は、通路なら上下または左右に、十字路の中央では四方に広がります。同時に複数の妖怪を巻き込むと、点数が100→200→300→……とアップ！ しかし、一歩間違えれば、自爆してしまうことも……。In addition, since the applied model was the SMC-777 version, the fastest release was the SMC-777 version, and it was released in the order of PC-8801 version and the X1 version on December 22.rice field.Since the PC-88 version is slow to draw, it is strongly recommended to play with the X1 version or FM version if the environment allows.
