Gamera: Gyaos Destruction Strategy (ガメラ ギャオス撃滅作戦 Gamera: Gyaosu Gekimetsu Sakusen) is a 1995 strategy game developed and published by Sammy for the Nintendo Super Famicom. It was released as a tie-in for Gamera the Guardian of the Universe, released that same year.
Gameplay
Much like Godzilla 2: War of the Monsters for the NES, Gamera: Gyaos Destruction Strategy is a real-time strategy game in which the player pits the JSDF against Gamera and Gyaos, luring them into a cluster of four blue squares with military units. At the same time, the player must position units, evacuate key personnel, and protect cities. A game over occurs if either the base (brown square) gets destroyed, too many buildings are damaged, or if the player gets the monster into the trap before the preparations are finished (which will be indicated via time at the top of the screen - when it's done, the trap is ready). All game over conditions can actually be turned off when the player first starts the game.
Units
Tanks and missile tanks (T-90 and SRS) - The player can place these in the path of the monster to lure it in the opposite direction that they're pointed in. If the player enough missile tanks, it will either force the monster in the direction it's pointed or ultimately be useless.
Ballistic missiles (GM) - These are used to force the monster in another direction. They blow up buildings and the number of missiles indicates the area.
Fighter jets (F-15) - These are the most expensive unit, but also the most effective. They force the monster in the direction pointed.
The player must switch to close-up view on the yellow flags and use the top-right command to pick them up. When the arrow is green, the trap is ready. If the arrow is red, the weapon will not arrive on time. White means everything is normal.
Stages
Stage 1 Erimo:
After waking up and freeing himself from his rocky enclosure, Gamera swims towards Hokkaido. Showing up just off the coast of the town Erimo, the JSDF plan to force the giant turtle's direction to the southernmost point of the cape near it's lighthouse. Realizing the creature's importance to the field of science, the JSDF plan to use a truck to launch a giant net and capture Gamera.
Stage 2 Tokai:
After breaking free of the net, Gamera made his way to off the coast of the Tokai sub-region, towards a nuclear power plant. The JSDF enact a plan to redirect the monster to in an attempt to trick Gamera into electrocuting itself by walking into the power lines, resulting in either his incapacitation or death.
Stage 3 Kawasaki:
Having survived the power lines, Gamera reappears off the coast of Kawasaki heading to the industrial area. Stunned by his ability to fly, the JSDF decide Gamera is too powerful to capture and contain. The devise a new plan to direct the kaiju towards an oil refinery and blow it up with bombs dropped by F-15 Eagles.
Stage 4 Oshima:
Stunned once again, this time by Gamera's ability to feed off of fire, the JSDF conclude that they can not destroy Gamera. The JSDF instead enact Plan Z, using fires to lure Gamera to the island Izu Oshima, they plan to lure Gamera into a capsule on top of a rocket hidden underground that will close around the fire elemental. Then they will launch him into space with the Plan-Z Rocket finally freeing the world from his rampage.
Stage 5 Fukuoka:
Although the Plan-Z Rocket successfully launched Gamera into space, a meteor struck the rocket and capsule freeing the monster and allowing him to return to Earth. Meanwhile the JSDF learn about a new monster they most deal with, Gyaos. The winged bat-like monster is heading for the city of Fukuoka. The JSDF enact a plan to lure the creature into the Fukuoka PayPay Dome and use it as a giant bird cage.
Stage 6 Osaka:
Gyaos escaped the stadium before Gamera could kill it. Meanwhile the mysterious obelisk that was atop Gamera's "atoll" had been translated, declearing Gamera as "the last hope" and Gyaos as "the shadow of evil." The JSDF track Gyaos down in the city of Osaka. The plan is to lure Gyaos near Osaka Castle to minimize damages and casualties as two ballistic missiles are launched at the creature.
Stage 7 Shizuoka:
(Note: misspelled as Sizuoka in game) Gyaos survives the two missiles and flies into the Shizuoka Prefecture with Gamera in hot pursuit. The JSDF, foolishly still seeing Gamera as a threat, shoot him out of the sky with missile launchers. Gamera survives and the JSDF plan to finish off on the ground with more missile trucks.
Stage 8 Tokyo:
Gamera survives the onslaught, destroying the missile launchers in defense but Gyaos takes advantage of the situation to attack a weakened Gamera, forcing him to retreat. With the guardian monster leaving to heal his wounds, Gyaos makes her way to Tokyo to make a nest. Meanwhile Asagi Kusanagi tried to reason with the JSDF and convince them that Gamera was not an enemy but an ally. The JSDF get ready to launch Type 81 Missiles at Gyaos.
Stage 9 Tokyo:
Gyaos flew around Tokyo Tower, confusing the missiles' guidance systems, causing them to crash into the tower, the creature now using the remains as it's nest. Gamera suddenly appears, ready to finish the fight once and for all. The JSDF, all out of options, decide to direct Gamera towards Gyaos in a desperate attempt to kill the Gyaos once and for all. Players should note that the stage has been rebuilt and any building Gyaos destroyed in stage 8 do not carry over to stage 9.
