Summary

Geimos is an early pseudo‑3D shoot‑em‑up that appeared on the Nintendo Famicom. Micronics handled the programming while ASCII took care of publishing, giving the title a distinct look among its contemporaries. The game simulates depth by scaling sprites as they approach, creating a sense of forward motion despite the system’s 2‑D hardware. Players navigate a lone ship through waves of enemies, with the visual trickery delivering a surprisingly immersive experience for its era.
