1. Introduction (1000)
**********************************
Gangster Town requires the use of the Light Gun in order to play the game. The
light gun is an accessory that you must purchase separately. The story for GT
is simple. You take the role of a secret agent that travels to the town to try
and fight off a gang that has overrun the city. You will travel to different
locations in the town, shooting at the gang members, and hoping to restore peace
to the city.
**********************************
2. Game Mechanics (2000)
**********************************
While playing Gangster Town, you will come across different mechanics of the
game that will be listed below. Before going in depth about the different aspect
of the game, I will start describing the general premise of the game. Basically,
you are an undercover secret agent that is hired to rid a peaceful town of the
gang's control. You will travel to different places, and you must dispatch the
gang members that you come across. For every gang member you kill, you will be
rewarded a certain amount of points. Like every gang member, they do not like
any intruders walking into their territory. They will shoot at you since you
are the one threatening to save the town.
While traveling through the levels, the gang members will fire at you. You will
have a limited number of health points (HP) that is symbolized as hearts. Every
time a gang member shoots at you, you will lose one full heart. Once you lose
all your health, you will come to a game over screen. There are more ways to
gain more hearts. One way is to earn a high score at the end of a scene. The
higher score that you earn, the more hearts you will learn. (referred to as
levels.") Below I will list the different aspects of the game.
*Gang Members - The gang members are the most common enemy in the game, and will
appear in every level. They will fire at you with their assault rifle. They can
easily be killed by shooting at them with your gun. While shooting at them,
there spirit can be seen leaving their body. If you shoot at their spirit, then
their spirit will be "sent to hell" and you will earn an additional 300 points.
*Head Honchos - These gang members are the ones dressed in a fancy gray suit
that only appear at the end of the level. Unlike the regular mobsters, the
head honchos will take more shots to eliminate. They will also carry a different
weapon then the regular mobsters, usually a shotgun. Once a head honcho is elim-
inated, then you will proceed to the next level.
*Blondes - Certain levels of this game will have blonde women walking back and
forth along the screen. When they appear on the screen, you MUST avoid shooting
them. Shooting one of the blondes will cause a game over screen to appear. Also,
at certain times, a gang member will take a blonde hostage. When trying to kill
the gang member, try avoid shooting the blonde.
*Bonus Rounds - After every two levels, you will come across a bonus round where
you must shoot these brick walls to find a key. You will be given 30 seconds to
shoot all the bricks, with one containing the secret key. Finding the key will
result in additional net points.
*Game Over Screen - When you come across a game over screen the first time, you
will have a chance to shoot the hat of the guy that appear on the screen. Shoot-
ing the hat will result in an extra life.
**********************************
3. Walkthough (3000)
**********************************
Gangster Town is split into six different scenes and contains two different
bonus rounds where you must collect a key by shooting at bricks. Below I out-
lined all of the levels that this game has to offer. While the game itself is
pretty linear and simple in nature, I will try to go over every level in detail
as much as possible. Some of the levels do have different actions though that I
will try to make note of as much as possible. Each level will be broken up
into a different section. The level usually ends when you beat the big mob boss.
##################################
3a Beginning and Practice Round (300a)
##################################
At the start of the game, you will be asked to "shoot" in your name on the scr-
een for your main character. This will be the name that will appear throughout
the game. After you select your name, then you wll be escorted to a the practice
round where you must shoot the different crosshairs on the screen. The practice
round will start off slow, but the crosshairs will eventually pick-up and move
faster. This will be good practice for you because the later levels of this game
require the player to act more swiftly towards the targets. You will also earn
extra points in the process when you destroy a crosshair.
##################################
3.1 Scene 1 - Car Chase (3001)
##################################
"PURSUE THE GANG'S CAR!"
This is the first level of the game! In this game, you will be pursuing the
gang's car along a country road. When the level starts, an old Model-T car will
appear in front of the screen and start swerving swideways. Various gang members
will start shooting at you from the side of the car. Make sure you react quickly
and shoot at them while the car turns sideways. The car will eventually pick up
speed and the gangsters will be shooting out of the car faster. One way to dis-
patch the car easily is by shooting the tires. Shooting the tires of the car
will cause it to spin out.
While the gangsters in the car are shooting at you, a plane will appear overhead
and start dropping bombs onto your car. You must shoot the bombs while they are
still in midair. The level will end once you arrive at the city. Alternately,
you can still keep shooting the gangsters in the car before you reach the city.
Doing so will net you more points.
##################################
3.2 Scene 2 - Downtown (3002)
##################################
"SHOOT AT THE GANG!"
You are finally downtown at the city! This level will be trickier and more cha-
llenging than the last level. The gang members in this scene will be coming out
of different places on different sides of the screen. Make sure you pay attent-
tion to the windows as the screen scrolls because there will be numerous gangs-
ters in them. Anyways, the level will start off smoothly with gangsters appearin
only on the sides of the screen. However, once you pass the "CASINO" sign, the
gang members will start to pick up and appear out of the buildings and sewers.
While in this area, becareful with the blonde female that walks by (dumb blonde)
because if you shoot her, you will automatically get a game over. Also, while
she is walking by, becareful of the gang member that will holder her hostage as
it is easy to shoot her instead of the gang member.
Anyways, as soon as you pass the casino, you will come across a giant green
"SALOON". There will be tons of gang members coming out from the sides of the
screen and from the windows left and right. When you come directly in front of
of the Saloon, a mobster wearing a white suit with a shotgun will start firing
at you. THIS is the gang member that you want to shoot at this point. Unlike
other gang members, the mobster in the white suit will take more hits to kill
him. He will also shoot at you faster than the other mobsters. Once you take the
mobster in the white suit down, then you will proceed to the next level.
##################################
3b. Bonus Round 1 (300b)
##################################
"LOCATE THE KEY!"
You will be facing a giant brick wall and have thirty seconds to find a key. The
trick to the bonus round is shooting the bricks with your gun. While shooting
the bricks, parts of the wall will be revealed. Once you get an oepning in the
first brick wall, you will notice that there is an additional brick wall in the
back. One of the bricks on this wall will contain a key, which will reward you
with more points!
##################################
3.3 Scene 3 - Saloon (3003)
##################################
"NO TIME TO DRINK!"
You are inside the Saloon now. The bar is filled with all these bottles of beer,
but there is no time for drinking! The bar has been overran by gang members.
This level will be different from previous levels as you are fixed in one area
and not scrolling just to the side. The gang members here will be even tougher
to shoot at now that they have new hiding spaces. The gang members will appear
in all sorts of different places including from behind the bar and from the side
of the screen. There are also wooden panels on the ceiling of the saloon, where
gang members will pop out of.
The main trick in this level is that the screen moves back and forth throughout
the bar. That means that your character will move through the bar about 3-4
different times. While swaying through the bar, make sure you dispatch all the
gang members that are coming from the ceiling and behind the bar. Once the scr-
een stops at the door on the right side of the board, a mobster wearing a white
suit will appear again. Like in the previous level, make sure you shoot the mob-
ster before he kills you. It would also be smart to shoot at the regular gang
members to get them out of your way. Once you jill the mobster in white, you
will complete the level.
##################################
3.4 Scene 4 - Downtown (3004)
##################################
"HURRY TO TH NIGHT CLUB!"
You are back at the Downtown part of town, but this time the gang members will
be in full force! The level will start off smoothly as always, except now the
gang members will be appearing off the side of the screen faster than usual.
Also like the previous downtown level, the gang members will appear out of the
windows and from the sewers to shoot at you. This time, though, more mobsters
will appear out of these places to make it more difficult. When you pass the
"CASINO" sign, a dumb blonde will start walking by. Becareful not to shoot her
as it will be easy to do so since the gang members are out in full force. Also,
becareful when the gang members hold her hostage to not shoot her.
When you get in front of the "NIGHT CLUB", the screen will stop moving and gang
members will start to pop out from different places. A mobster in a gray suit
will also pop out of the entrance of the night club. As always, make sure you
shoot the mobster quickly before he kills you. It will be tougher than usual
since there will be more gang members shooting at you. Once you kill the mob-
ster in front of the night club, the scene will end.
##################################
3c. Bonus Round 2 (300c)
##################################
"LOCATE THE KEY!"
Like the previous bonus round, you will have thirty seconds to find a secret
key in one of the bricks. However, this time there will be three brick walls
that you must shoot. The third brick wall will contain the key!
##################################
3.5 Scene 5 - Night Club (3005)
##################################
"YOU ARE DOING GREAT. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!"
This level is really tough. Prepare to get your light gun ready, because this
level can be a big pain in the ass if you are not paying attention. Like the
saloon level a few scenes back, you will be in a certain room while the screen
will move back and forth. However, unlike the saloon, the night club will house
more places for the gang members to hide. Basically, you are in a room with a
giant stage in front of you. There will be a drum set, severl music stands, and
a hell of a lot of places for gang members to hide! The screen in this level
will also move faster than previous levels.
The gang members will be popping out everywhere in this level. They will apppear
from the side of the stage, behind the drums and music stands, and even from the
ceiling of the night club. Becareful of the mobsters from the ceiling of the
stage especially, since they are tricky and are easy to miss. After a few min-
utes, a mobster wearing a gray suit will appear on the walkway of the stage fir-
ing at you. MAKE SURE YOU ELIMINATE HIM AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE! There will be a
load of gang members firing at you while fighting the head honcho. Just dispatch
him quick before your body is riddled with bullets!
##################################
3.6 Scene 6 - Harbor (3006)
##################################
"THIS IS THE FINAL BATTLE."
The final level of the game! In this level, you will be travelling along a dock
filled with gang members. The dock contains piles of crates, which makes good
hiding places for the gang members. In this level the screen will travel to the
left instead of the normal right. The gang members will be out in full force,
and you won't even have time to shoot the spirits of the gang members. The one
thing you need to worry about in this level is the gang members hiding behind
the crates. They will be hard to shoot at along with the other gang members that
are shooting at you on the ground level. A dumb blone will appear in this level
again. As always, try avoid shooting at her, since it will be really easy to do
so with all the gang members hanging around.
Once you arrive at the boat, gang members will start shooting from the deck of
it. When the screen stops at the boat though, a gang member wielding a double
machinegun will jump out of the boat and start firing at you! Shoot him as
quickly as possible because he is more resilent then the other head honchos! At
the same time, try to avoid the gang members shooting at you from the boat. When
you finally destroy the mobster with the sub machineguns, you will have finally
complete the game!
##################################
3.7 Ending (3007)
##################################
After you have beat the final scene, a screen will appear and congradulate you
for completing your mission. The scene will also show the gang members fleeing
the town, with peace and order finally returning to all the citizens. After
that, you will come across a ranking screen that will evaluate the total hit
ratio percentage and points into a letter ranking. The more people you kill, the
higher your ranking will be.
Congradulations, you have officially beaten Gangster Town!
