Download Dark Gimmick! ROM Hack

Gimmick! One of the best game in my collection for NES/Fami. Great physics, great graphics, awesome music, high
difficulty and... short gameplay. Insane difficulty! ;)

This hack HIGHLY utilize game physics, especially star collisions. The whole game is fully playable and can
be finished (including 7th stage and true ending)! If you stuck somewhere, chillout for a moment and use
your brain. In most cases this will help a lot. ;d

I also made a famicom cartridge label. Perfect for private reproduction carts and multi-emulators.
