Puchi Carat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Puchi Garat is a 1997 arcade game by Taito.
The game is similar to Breakout in which the player uses a paddle to direct a ball and destroy gem-stones in order to either clean ones play-area of gems, or to destroy as many gems as possible to add to the amount of gems in the other player's field. The amount of gems increases very once in a while and if the gems reach the line at the bottom of the play-area, the player loses.
The game has a story-mode where the player has to compete against eleven of the twelve characters from which the player choses one as his own. Characters are fully animated and perform a number of actions and yell Japanese to reflect the situation a player is in. In the story-mode the player must collect twelve gems by challenging other characters in order to make a wish. Each character has their own ending when the game is played through on the highest (Expert) difficulty setting.
