Drymouth

Drymouth is a puzzle game. What you do is follow the numbers above and to the left of the field to see which blocks you should punch out. When all the blocks are correctly punched out, the pattern will form a picture. Oh, doesn't this sound neat? Yeah, it gets better. If you make mistakes, or a slime eats you, or whatever, you will lose time and eventually lose.

Drymouth's puzzles come in four sizes. The further you advance in the game, the bigger the puzzles will get. However, the above screens are merely concept shots; at most the Gameboy's resolution allows for a field of 13x13 blocks. So, on the 15x15 and 20x20 fields, The field will scroll to let you get to it all. The screen doesn't actually scroll or anything; calculations are done within the game, new rows are brought up, and with the next refresh the new rows are displayed and a new section of the background appears or disappears, giving the illusion that something's moved.
