Godzilla 2: War of the Monsters
Description
In a completely different style from the first Nintendo Godzilla game from Toho, you play as japanese military forces fighting against Godzilla. Because Godzilla is such a ferocious monster, this is no easy task... in fact, your attacks to Godzilla don't actually do any damage to him at all. Strategy instead becomes the main point of play as you must position forces in strategic points to route Godzilla away from important buildings and into other areas where his movement will be less destructive to the city. Actual success of these routing attacks is imperfect, if one is not careful, the whole offensive will fall apart over a single missed attack. Beware Godzilla!

Trivia
Development
Originally in 1990, this game was planned to be a game about Rodan another one of Toho's popular creations. However the company thought that a game about Rodan would not do as well a game about Godzilla. Eventually the project was scrapped and became Godzilla 2: War of the Monsters instead.
