Play Armadillo (Japan) Online
Roll an armadillo through maze-like stages, shooting fireballs when you power up—it’s like Bomberman if your character could curl into a spiky ball. Weirdly satisfying once you get the hang of rolling just right.
Armadillo is a 1991 Nintendo Entertainment System game developed and published by I'Max. It arrived late in the NES lifecycle, a time when many developers were experimenting with more complex mechanics and level designs. The game stands out for its unusual protagonist and its blend of action and puzzle solving.
You control an armadillo that can roll into a ball to navigate maze-like stages, defeat enemies by touching them while curled up, and shoot fireballs after collecting power-ups. The main goal is to progress screen by screen, finding keys to unlock doors while avoiding environmental hazards and enemy attacks. The pacing is deliberate, requiring careful movement and timing, and the difficulty can be unforgiving with limited continues. It feels like a thoughtful, slightly clunky puzzle action hybrid that rewards patience.
