Godzilla is a video game developed by Compile based on the Godzilla franchise, and was first released for Game Boy in 1990. It is a port of the 1985 MSX game, Gojira-Kun. The game features character designs from the franchise’s Showa era films. Various monsters that Godzilla had previously defeated, have kidnapped his son, Minilla, and hidden him somewhere inside the Labyrinth of Matrix.

It is up to Godzilla to fight the monsters’ attacks and solve their many puzzles, all while navigating a much larger maze. The game is a 2D side-scrolling video game where Godzilla can only walk around or climb ladders, vines or crystals. A prominent part of the game is his punch, the only attack he has, which is used to destroy boulders, and to kill or push enemies.

The main point of each room is to destroy all of the boulders, by pushing them against a wall and hitting it again. Once all of the boulders are gone, one or two arrow panels will appear somewhere in the room. Touching one will take Godzilla to the room in a large map corresponding to its direction. As levels are completed, the direction is revealed on the map for further use.

There are three items in the game: the hourglass (or “sandglass”), the heart, and the lightning bolt (or “thunder”). The hourglass stops all enemy movement for a short period of time. The heart increases Godzilla’s health. The lightning bolt kills all enemies on-screen, except for Ghidorah.
