Caltron 6 in 1 - Games

Games

The six games included on Caltron 6–in–1 are:

  • Cosmos Cop is a pseudo-3D into-the-screen shoot 'em up that is similar to Sega's Space Harrier. However, the game experiences a lot of image–breakup on the screen due to the NES's limited capability of handling first–person scaling.
  • Magic Carpet 1001 is a horizontal scrolling shooter that was later released on pirate cartridges as Aladdin III and with some graphical and sound modifications as Super Harry Potter. The game has been criticized for its steep difficulty curve. It is the only game on the cartridge that is not an obvious clone of another popular title.
  • Balloon Monster is a clone of Mitchell's Pang and the North American equivalent Buster Bros.
  • Adam and Eve is a single-screen platform game similar to Nintendo's Balloon Fight (itself based on Williams' Joust) in which the player has to kill snakes by bursting the balloons attached to their heads. This game also received criticism in that the game — despite its title — had very little relevance to the biblical story of Adam and Eve.
  • Porter is a puzzle game similar to Thinking Rabbit's Sokoban and Boxxle where the player has to move boxes into specifically–marked places. This game is criticized for its awkward controls; boxes can only be moved while holding down the A button, and if the B button is accidentally pressed, the level automatically restarts without any warning to the player.
  • Bookyman is a direct clone of Williams' Make Trax and Kural's arcade game Crush Roller. This game has been considered an inferior clone of their arcade counterparts.
