Mappy (US)

Mappy is a classic arcade game from Namco, released in 1983. In the game, you control a mouse named Mappy whose mission is to collect items hidden in offices. However, you will face five cat police officers trying to catch you. Each level is designed like an office with many different rooms connected by passages. You need to skillfully move through the rooms, collect items, and avoid being caught by the cats.

The gameplay of Mappy is quite simple but challenging. You can move Mappy up, down, left, and right. The cat police officers will relentlessly chase you. To slow them down, you can use special items such as bombs or boxes to block their path. However, the number of these items is limited, so you need to use them wisely. You also need to pay attention to the time, as each level has a time limit to complete.

Every time you collect an item, your score increases. When you complete all the levels, you win. The game has many different levels, with increasing difficulty. At higher levels, the number of cat police officers will increase, and they will move faster, requiring you to have quick reflexes and dexterity in movement.

Mappy stands out with its cute pixel art graphics and cheerful sound. The simple yet addictive gameplay has made it one of the most beloved classic arcade games of all time.
