'Slimyer'

[X1 / X68000] [JAPAN] [MAGAZINE] [1990]

"Three distinct species of slimes have suddenly erupted into conflict. To restore balance to the slime ecosystem, a lone warrior has risen to the challenge (sort of). This is a strategic puzzle game where you must utilize the slimes' rock-paper-scissors-style hierarchy to eliminate all but those of a specific, designated color. You'll guide the slimes using blocks and multiply them with potions; however, unless you carefully consider the effects of each potion—and the precise order in which to use them—clearing all 100 stages will be no easy feat. Incidentally, an X1 version of the game is also scheduled for release by Takeru." ~Oh!X (Vol. 9 #06, June 1990) [BMT🤖]

Wibarm

Wibarm is the lovechild of Game Arts’ Thexder and Falcom’s Xanadu, two of the most popular games in the mid-1980s Japanese PC scene. Much as in Thexder, you control a transforming robot that can change between mecha and jet forms, as well as using an auto-targeting laser as a primary weapon. But rather than offering a straightforward arcade-like experience, it grafts on some RPG elements, many taken straight from Xanadu.
