About this product

Product Information

Deep in the Enchanted Forest lives the Centipede and its evil comrades Flea, Spider and Scorpion. Now you're trapped with them, stuck in a mushroom patch and armed with three magic wands which can dispel the creatures. The only problem is that Centipede becomes segmented every time you hit it, Flea drops more mushrooms into the playing field and requires two hits to destroy, Scorpion turns every mushroom it touches poisonous, and Spider dances around you, making it harder to kill.<br><br>Centipede is for one or two players on the Nintendo Game Boy Color. Two players can take turns on a single Game Boy or they can use the link cable to compete against each other or play as a team. There are four levels of difficulty: novice starts you off slow; standard starts you at wave 10; advanced drops you into the action at wave 19; and expert begins with wave 28.<br><br>Points are scored for each creature or mushroom destroyed, with differences based on how much of each mushroom you destroy, whether you hit a boy part or a head of Centipede and how close you are to Spider when you kill it. Every 12,000 points gains you an extra wand.<br><br>You can enter your initials into the High Score list after the game if you've performed well enough, but the game pak does not retain the information after you switch off your Game Boy.

  • No school like "Old School"

    Classic entertainment that doesn't require days of your life to play. Multilayer features are a good add on. Looks very similar to the original. Begining levels are easy, can get kinda redundant but I still recommend it.

  • Centipede Game for Game Boy Color

    I bought this game for my four year old daughter. She likes it well enough. The game is easy to figure out and does'nt have a lot of reading.

  • loved it

    I bought it for my grandson and he loves it. It is his favorite game! I was looking for a safe game for a seven year old that was clean, non-violent, and fun to play. This one hit all of those priorities.
