How it plays
How does Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge play?
The game is viewed from a side-scrolling perspective. Players choose stages from a boss-selection screen, navigate hazards and enemies, and defeat a Robot Master at each stage's end.
Mega Man begins with the Mega Buster and gains a boss weapon after each victory. Weapon weaknesses encourage different stage orders, while limited health and ammunition make careful movement important. After the initial bosses, the game continues through additional fortress stages before the final battle with Dr. Wily.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge?
Study each boss's movement before committing to attacks. Use the weapon gained from one boss against another whenever a weakness is known, but conserve ammunition for difficult encounters.
In stages, prioritize safe positioning over speed. Learn enemy patterns, use small platforms carefully, and enter boss rooms with as much health and weapon energy as possible.
