TRIVIA

Garuka was released in September 1988 in Japan. It is is known outside Japan as "Devastators".

The kanji reads 'Ga Ru Ka' which means 'Starve current calamity'.

The portrait of the hero in the titlescreen proves that he is clearly a parody of Sylvester Stallone in 'Rambo'.

King Records released a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (Konami Game Music Collection Vol.0 - 276A-7708) on 21/07/1989.
