Summary

Garfield Labyrinth is the European incarnation of a game that originally appeared as Mickey Mouse IV: Mahou no Labyrinth in Japan and as The Real Ghostbusters in North America, making it the fifth entry in the quirky Crazy Castle line. Kemco both developed and published the title in Europe, wrapping the familiar orange tabby from Jim Davis’s comic strips and the Garfield and Friends cartoon around a puzzle‑heavy, dungeon‑like adventure. The levels are essentially a stripped‑down copy of P.P. Hammer, complete with its pneumatic‑hammer mechanic, simplified sprites and almost identical room layouts—something the original P.P. Hammer creator has called an unauthorized lift. Players guide Garfield through maze‑like stages, gathering stars to unlock the next door while dodging ghosts, flames, reforming blocks and a relentless 999‑second timer; a twelve‑digit password at the end of each level lets you resume right where you left off.

Storyline

In Garfield Labyrinth for the Game Boy, the story kicks off with the two protagonists—Garfield in the Western release or Jon in the Japanese version—attempting to cross a rickety bridge. When the lead character slips and plummets into the abyss, he frantically shouts for the companion’s assistance, setting the quirky adventure in motion.
