HELPFUL GAME-PLAYING HINTS
A thermometer-shaped MEGA MAN "Energy Meter"
appearing upper left in game-playing scenes serves to monitor MEGA MAN's
power levels. If and when MEGA MAN is bodily struck or hit with enemy
projectiles, degrees of energy are lost.
Conversely, the player's MEGA MAN power is boosted by
winning energy capsules.

The Iceman stage offers real challenge when square-shaped steps quickly appear
and disappear on the backdrop. When MEGA Man's jumps and leaps are
timed perfectly, he's able to scale walls and press onward toward defeating
empire leader Iceman.
Each time MEGA MAN successfully out-duels each of his six foes, he
acquires new firepower he will need as MEGA MAN enters the final stage
seven to defeat evil Dr. Wily.
Ah! MEGA MAN must use the newly-acquired armament wisely, for he can
use them just once while engaged in battle with Dr. Wily.

THE MEGA MAN STORY
It's MEGA MAN versus the powerful leaders and fighting forces of Monsteropolis—that
strange multi-faceted land of robot-like Humanoids. Brilliant scientist Dr.
Wright conceived the construction of fully-operational human-like experimental
robots to perform specific everyday duties. Dr. Wright, and his assistant
Dr. Wily, encouraged with their very first near-human robot—MEGA MAN—proceeded
to develop six additional Humanoids, all programmed to perform prescribed
rituals:
|
|
Cutman: Designed
to function as a lumberjack. Powerful saw-toothed scissor-like instrument
protrudes from head, capable of gnawing through giant forest timbers. |
|
|
Gutsman:
A bulldozing character capable
of lifting and transporting huge boulders. |
| |
|
|
Iceman: Impervious
to chilling sub-zero temperatures, capable of human-like performances
under extreme climatic conditions. |
|
|
Bombman:
A real "blaster" as
a heavy duty laborer who uses intensely powerful explosives to clear lands
for Dr. Wright's construction projects. |
| |
----------------------------------------------------------------

|
|
Fireman: Melts
and molds metals with flame-throwing torch flaring from atop his head.
|
|
|
Elecman:
Dr. Wright's electrifying creation—planned
for conducting electrical operations—even
supervising nuclear power plants. |
| |
|
|
But, with the exception of MEGA MAN,
all of Dr. Wright's near-human robot experimentation went awry. Assistant
Dr. Wily turned disloyal, re-programming Dr. Wright's Humanoids, now bent
on destroying opposition so Dr. Wily could control the world and its resources. |
Resisting reprogramming, MEGA MAN is chosen the defender of the universe
and its inhabitants. MEGA MAN dares to single-handedly penetrate seven
separate empires of Monsteropolis, eliminating the leaders and followers of
these sovereignties.
Get ready for some very exciting challenges!
