Momoko 120% is a 1986 arcade game by Jaleco released only in Japan. This platform game features Momoko, a young Japanese girl who ages by several years each time you reach a next level. The goal for each level is to quickly climb several floors by escalator, ladder, or trampoline in the building she is in before the fire that is below her reaches her. These level settings start out from grade school settings to office type buildings. While jumping over obstacles, she must shoot various different alien-like enemies that come after her on each floor. She can upgrade her weapon by destroying certain enemies as well as entering special hidden doorways which feature minigames which require you to jump obstacles. These doorways can also be used as a short-cut, and sometimes they are mandatory to be used in order to climb to the next floor. When Momoko reaches the top floor of a level, she must jump onto a small blimp flying above her to beat the level. ...more on Wikipedia about "Momoko 120%" This text is made for http://www.shortopedia.com shortopedia
