Arcade Hits Moon Patrol & Spy Hunter is an arcade game released in 1996 for the Game Boy Color. This title combines two classic arcade experiences: Moon Patrol and Spy Hunter, offering players a blend of action and strategy in a portable format. The game stays true to its roots by presenting side-scrolling and vehicular combat gameplay.
In Moon Patrol, the main objective is to navigate a lunar buggy across rough terrain while avoiding obstacles and enemies. The pace is fast, requiring quick reflexes to jump over craters and shoot at threats. Spy Hunter shifts the focus to driving a high-tech car through enemy-infested roads, with the goal of eliminating enemies and avoiding crashes. The pace in Spy Hunter is similarly brisk, demanding constant attention to both steering and shooting.
A unique mechanic in Moon Patrol is its dual control of jumping and shooting simultaneously, enhancing the challenge of platform navigation. Spy Hunter introduces an unusual idea by integrating weapon upgrades and vehicle transformations, which adds depth to the traditional driving shooter gameplay. Together, these games offer a distinctive arcade experience on the Game Boy Color, blending platforming and vehicular combat into a single cartridge.
