Pachinko Time

The game is based off of the company’s series of Pachio-kun games, made famous on the NES. To my knowledge, none of the Pachio-kun games were released outside of Japan. At the title screen, you’ll either have a choice to start the game or to play timed. If you select Time Set, you can set the game on a time limit by a number of 分 (Minutes) ranging from 000 to 999. Once you start the game, you will be on a map screen. You will be standing near the northwest corner of the screen. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to make it to the southeast corner where the goal is. There are eight parlors in all, however, you don’t need to beat all of them to complete the game. As far as I know, there’s no bad ending to this game, so taking shortcuts seems to be okay. However, if you’re a completist, you will want to beat each parlor and probably each pachinko machine in the parlor. You’ll also see many broken paths on the map. These will be repaired with each parlor you complete 4 pachinko machines with.
