GW Helmet
Description
GW Helmet is a remake of one of the 1981 Gold Game & Watch games that came on a single, LCD device. Known as Helmet, in the UK it was known by the name Headache.
Players need to move a character from the door on the left side of the screen to the shed on the right side. Once he gets through, the game continues from the left side. The graphics have been updated with touches of colour. As in the original game, there is no fluent movement animation, but only a set amount of steps the character can take. While traversing over the screen, he has to avoid tools such as hammers, saws and wrenches. Each group of tools that is avoided is awarded with one point, making it to the shed gives five points and at 300 points a bonus is provided.
Movement is done by tilting the device left or right, tapping the desired location or pressing the left or right edge of the screen. As in the original game, there are two game modes with a different difficulty level.
