How to Play Godzilla: Monster of Monsters!

Quick start

Press Start, choose New Game, and use the white hex cursor to select Godzilla or Mothra with A. Plot a connected route with the D-pad and press A again to commit; B cancels. Mothra's four-hex movement and flight make her easier for learning the early weapon stages, while Godzilla's two-hex pace is balanced by stronger growth and combat options. Let both characters earn experience instead of abandoning one at low Life, because the enemy receives a move after each turn and later fields add more rival monsters. When the white cursor is present on the map, Select displays the password. Record it before stopping; names and screen text in this Famicom ROM are Japanese.

Controls

Hex mode: D-pad moves the cursor or selected monster, A selects and confirms, B cancels, Select displays the password. Godzilla: Left/Right move, Up jumps, Down crouches, A punches, B kicks, Down+B performs a tail chop, Start fires atomic breath using Power, Select pauses. Mothra: D-pad flies in eight directions, A or B fires the eye beam, Start uses poisonous powder and Power, Select pauses. The Japanese Famicom guide confirms this layout; the overseas NES manual was used only as a cross-check. Nothing here refers to Godzilla 2.

Godzilla: Monster of Monsters! — About this game

This is the original Japanese Famicom release titled Godzilla, later localized for NES as Godzilla: Monster of Monsters! It places Godzilla and Mothra on a sequence of planetary Ring Fields controlled by the invaders of Planet X. Choosing a route on the hex map launches a side-scrolling action stage for every space crossed, while contact with an enemy piece becomes a timed kaiju fight. Godzilla moves two hexes and specializes in close physical blows plus atomic breath; Mothra moves four, flies freely, and relies on eye beams and poisonous powder. Experience expands the Life and Power meters, and passwords carry the campaign between sessions. The Japanese build lacks some overseas presentation additions, including the localized pre-stage planet-name display and constantly visible score, and it contains Japanese text.
