Tsuppari Wars is a very fun strategy/action game for the Famicom. It is a
turf-wars type of game, where you move your soldiers across a segmented map,
defeating the enemy soldiers and ultimately their leader/boss. The battles
are simple fistfights (literally), and there are only three stages to conquer
in the main campaign, but you will have a lot of fun doing so! It may be a
little bit tough to win the side view battles between boss characters, but
the overall experience is a simple one, and really not all that difficult. I
would definitely recommend this game!

Gameplay

General Gameplay/Battles
------------------------

When you decide to partake in the Tsuppari Wars, you will be able to pick
your character's icon (it doesn't make a difference who you pick). You will
then go to a map screen, broken down into areas (or turfs) as designated by
colors (you are red, the computer is blue, and neutral areas are gray). On
your turn, you will see a box with your character's face, letting you know
who's turn it is.

Before going into the core of the gameplay, here is some information about
how the map is set up. Each side starts with multiple areas in their control,
usually with 40 soldiers in each of them. Each side also has a big boss, as
shown by a large white face icon in one of the areas, and multiple sub bosses
designated as small white circles. If you enter into a battle with an area
containing either of these, there will be a much larger character fighting as
well, so be careful (more on that below). If one side defeats all of the
enemy soldiers in an area, that area falls under their control. The numbers
show how many soldiers are in a given area. At the end of each turn, you will
be able to move soldiers around, as discussed below.

You will first be asked if you want to fight (たたかい), then you select your
group that you want to do the attacking, and then the enemy area connected to
it that you want to fight. You will then go into an overhead battle scene,
where each side's small soldiers will automatically fight each other. You can
control a single character in the mix, and switch between them at any time,
by pressing A (your character has a cursor above their head). You also access
the item screen by pressing A until the cursor cycles to it, then use the
Control Pad and B to use an item.

To fight, you simply press B repeatedly to punch at your opponent. The small
generic soldiers can only take a few hits each before dying, so you will see
quite a bit of them dying. The best approach in fighting is to gang up on a
group of enemy soldiers already fighting someone to quickly kill them all. If
you attack an enemy directly from behind, you may be able to throw them out
of the area, killing them instantly.

In an area containing a sub or main boss character, you will see them as a
much larger soldier. They can kill the small soldiers very effectively, and
it is pretty much impossible to kill them normally. If two boss characters
get into contact, a side-view battle will commence for a short while. The
idea there is to deplete the HP of the opposing boss. If you kill them, you
take control of the area as well as any remaining enemy soldiers! If you do
not kill them, you go back to the map after a few moments. If you are on your
own territory, you will recover your HP after such battles (up to 250 HP).

In the regular overhead battles, you can walk off the battlefield by moving
off the screen in a certain direction (this is helpful when an item is used).
After a short while, the battle will end and the surviving soldiers will stay
in their respective areas. If you end up clearing an area of all enemy
soldiers, you may be able to receive a new item by picking from six face-down
cards. The white card means you don't get an item. If you already have at
least three items, you will be given the option to give up three items in
exchange for 50 reserve soldiers.

When you are done fighting (you can not move across the map before choosing
to fight, unfortunately), press B to cycle to the attack option, and select
No. You will then be asked if you want to move (いどうし). Select Yes, and
you will be able to select one of your areas, then select the adjacent area
(that either you control, or is unoccupied) you want to move them to. Adjust
the amount moved with Up/Down, and move boss characters if applicable by
using Left/Right. Only one boss character can be in an area at one time. When
moving your soldiers, it is generally a good idea to have your bosses at the
front line, to increase your chances of success when the enemy has its turn
and attacks you.

Once you are done moving, go back to the menu and select No, and the enemy
will take its turn. At the start of each turn, you may receive some amount of
reserve soldiers (designated by a numeric amount below your name). How many
you get seems to be determined by how many enemies you killed, how many you
have left, among other things.

It should be noted that this game is NOT a competition to see who controls
the most territories. Rather, you want to defeat all of the enemy soldiers
and bosses. That said, it does not matter if areas are unoccupied; in fact it
is necessary if you wish to corner and ultimately defeat your enemy! You need
to defeat the main boss character to clear the map. In the main campaign
mode, there are three maps that you play on. The first one is small, and the
last two are much larger (with 24 available areas to occupy). Once you beat
the third and final area, the game is complete!


Items
-----

The following are the six items available during the overhead battle scenes,
from left to right. Be careful since some items act indiscriminately, so you
will want to move your own soldiers out of the way (by running around or
moving off the screen).

Catfish: Cause an earthquake, rendering the enemies unable to move on their
        own.

Fire: Flames appear in random locations in the battlefield, damaging anyone
     who touches them.

Lightning: Damage all enemies currently on the screen.

Police: The police will come and pull away any soldiers (friend or foe), thus
       killing them.

Bikes: A motorcycle rider will ride back and forth across the screen, causing
      damage to anyone in its way.

Yakuza: A Yakuza (gang) member will walk around the area, damaging anyone in
       his way.
