About the game

Symphony City is under attack from a gang of robots called the Dimensions. Their leader, Rockman Shadow, is a dead ringer for RockMan. At the same time Rockman is trying to figure out what is going on in Symphony City, Forte is sent by Dr. Wily to see what is going on in the city too. Rockman and Forte decide to put their rivalry aside and join forces to deal with this new threat.

Players get to play as either Rockman or Forte. Rockman has his charge shot and dash abilities while Forte can fire in multiple directions and can double jump as well as dash. The game has 8 levels to play through, with some levels requiring the player to hold the Wonderswan vertically in order to play the levels properly. While playing through the levels, players will collect screws which can be spent at shops to buy from 17 different items like extra lives and other upgrades.
