Gameplay
To enter game mode, the top button on the left must be pressed to select the difficulty level, with GAME A for easy and GAME B for hard. Next, the button below it will start the game. Hammer Bros. in the clouds hurl their hammers to the ground. Luigi must move left or right to deflect the hammers off the right side of the screen with his shield. Each time he succeeds, he will earn 10 points. If Luigi misses a hammer, he gets a miss. For every 500 points, he can erase a miss. He is allowed to miss five times before it is Game Over. There is a maximum of 10,000 points.
