How it plays
How does Spin Master play?
Players guide Johnny or Joe through side-scrolling stages viewed from the side. The objective is to reach the end of each area, defeat enemies, collect useful items, and overcome a boss or other major obstacle.
The characters can jump across platforms and attack at close range. Weapons and power-ups found during the stages change the available attack. The game supports one or two players, and continuing through the arcade credit system is the primary form of progression.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Spin Master?
Learn enemy attack patterns before advancing, especially near platform edges and narrow passages. Avoid rushing into groups, because contact damage can quickly consume a life.
Use collected weapons while they are safe to deploy, but do not take unnecessary risks to preserve them. In two-player games, spread out when possible so both characters can attack without blocking each other.
