Play Armadillo (Japan) [En by Vice v1.01] Online
You're a rolling armadillo wrecking ball—bounce off walls, crush enemies with momentum, and try not to yeet yourself into spikes. Grab power-ups to smash through blocks or launch higher, turning tiny chaos into pure destruction.
Game Overview
Okay, so Armadillo is one of those NES games you’d never stumble onto unless someone pointed it out—Japan-only, weirdly charming, and now playable in English thanks to some dedicated fans. You play as, well, an armadillo that rolls around like a living bowling ball, bouncing off walls and enemies while trying to solve maze-like stages. No jumping, just physics and momentum—which sounds simple until you misjudge a corner and go flying into spikes.
The power-ups are where it gets fun: suddenly you’re plowing through blocks or bouncing higher, turning into this tiny, unstoppable wrecking ball. The levels are bright and almost playful, like someone took Marble Madness and gave it a shot of cartoon energy. It’s not hard to pick up, but some later stages will have you nudging the D-pad just right to avoid getting stuck in a loop of bad rolls.
Honestly, it’s the kind of game you boot up for "just one level" and end up playing for an hour. If you’ve got a soft spot for oddball retro games, this one’s worth the time.
