The three Jack brothers, who were visiting the human world for Halloween, realize that they only have one hour left until the portal to return to the fairy world closes.
With the young fairy girl Pixie as their narrator, they navigate dangerous shortcuts and collect all the keys dropped on the dungeon floors to open the exits.

You can experience a new sensation of intercepting invaders approaching from the back of the screen.

V-TETRIS

In addition to the basic Tetris where you stack falling Tetriminos to align and clear lines, Loop Tetris, which utilizes a looping field to clear 5 or more lines at once, is also included.
VERTICAL FORCE
A shooting game for Virtual Boy released in 1995.
While the Earth Federation Forces suffer repeated defeats against Mittgard, the self-awakened caretaker computer of Odin (a human colony planet), the player stands up against it with the fighter ship Ragnarok.
A system that allows you to freely move between two lines of different heights and the AI Drones that automatically track and attack enemy ships create a unique gameplay feel.

Pins, balls, and lanes are realistically reproduced, making it a deep game where setting adjustments such as ball weight and dominant hand are also possible.
