Demons, Mechanized Sharks, Nasty blobs and a little tiny Faire called Tam because after all, we are in Rod-Land....and it's sooo cute!!!!
Welcome Back to the Brainstorm Emporium Gaming.Rod Land, known in Japan as Rod-Land...no...is not, in Japan is called Yōsei Monogatari Rod Land ...ok?...Rod-Land, is a 1990 platform game originally developed and published in arcades by Jaleco.
The player(s) control one or two fairies called Tam and Rit armed with a magic wand (rod). What do you prefer? Wand or Rod...wherever...
Following the concept of Taito's Bubble Bobble, the rod doesn't kill the monsters directly, but only leaves them immobilized, crying. Bubble Bobble is a videogame already discussed in Episode 9, you should already have watched that video a while ago' and liked of course if not....if not...the link is down blelow....
To kill the monster in this game, the rod can grasp them in a magic force-field and the player can smash them down over her head until they disappear and leave a power-up behind. No Monster has been harmed in this game.
Each level is only one small screen composed of monsters, platforms, ladders and, later, tunnels.

Unlike other games of the genre, the players can never jump, but have to use ladders.
They can conjure one custom ladder above or below them in order to go to the appropriate platform.
There can be only one such 'custom' ladder; therefore if the fairy summons it again, it will disappear from its previous position in order to appear again next to the fairy. This can be beneficial for the player, if a monster is climbing that ladder to approach her.
The fairies' quest is to rescue their mother, trapped in a tower. In the sequel (part of the original arcade machine) they must venture into a pyramid, to stop an evil demon that is building a mobile fortress. The spirit of their departed father "guides" them at a couple of points. The ending implies that the demon in the pyramid was somehow responsible for their father's death. So so sad.... I need a minute...Enjoy the game...
