Mendel Palace
About this game
Mendel Palace, originally released in Japan as Quinty, is the debut game by Game Freak, designed by Satoshi Tajiri. It launched on Famicom/NES in 1989, published by Namco in Japan and Hudson Soft in North America. Players control Bon-Bon, who enters a dream world to rescue his sleeping girlfriend Candy. It is a top-down action puzzle game. Each level is built on a 7×5 grid of floor tiles. The core gameplay is flipping tiles to launch doll enemies; enemies get eliminated once they crash into walls. Flipping tiles may reveal stars and special tiles. Collect stars to gain extra lives. Different doll enemies have unique movement patterns, and stages grow tougher as you progress. There are eight main houses, and clearing all of them unlocks the final Mendel Palace. It supports single-player and 2-player co-op, with unlimited continues. As Game Freak’s first commercial game, its development experience inspired Satoshi Tajiri to create the Pokémon series later.
