Stop That Roach! — About this game
Hoi Hoi: Game Boy Ban, known as Stop That Roach! in the US, asks Ken or Lilly to protect a snack with a tightly limited plan. After placing available traps, choose five commands to move, create a shock or attack the insects. The roaches then follow fixed movement rules, and any survivors after their turn mean failure. Position and facing determine how your tools work, making the insects' predictable response part of the solution rather than an interruption to it.
