Play Arcade Classic No. 2 : Millipede & Centipede Online

Arcade Classic No. 2: Millipede & Centipede on Game Boy is like someone stuffed two arcade cabinets into your pocket—minus the sticky buttons and the smell of stale pizza. You’ve got Centipede, where you’re basically a tiny turret fending off an endless wave of segmented nightmares, and Millipede, which throws even more bugs, mushrooms, and chaos at you. The controls are simple (just shoot and dodge), but good luck staying calm when a centipede suddenly loops around the edge of the screen.

The Game Boy’s screen turns everything into these chunky little sprites, which somehow makes the whole thing even more tense. You’ll miss shots because your hands are sweating, swear at mushrooms blocking your way, and then immediately hit "start" again when you lose. It’s the kind of game you play thinking "just one more try" until you realize you’ve been hunched over for an hour. If you’ve got a soft spot for arcade classics or just want to see what all the fuss was about, this cartridge’s worth digging out of a bargain bin.
