Round-Up
赶牛
Round-Up is an arcade action game released by Taito Corporation in 1981 under the Amenip/Centuri license. Players control a cowboy character who must round up cattle by driving them into pens while avoiding obstacles and enemies. The game features single-screen levels with increasing difficulty. Controls involve moving the protagonist across the screen using directional inputs and an action button. Cattle respond to the player's movement, requiring strategic positioning to herd them toward designated areas. The game progresses through multiple rounds with escalating challenges and faster-moving obstacles.
