Roger Rabbit

Getting started: When you start Roger Rabbit (Japan), you'll see a title screen in Japanese. Press Start to begin the game. You control Roger Rabbit in a side-scrolling environment, moving left and right with the D-Pad and jumping with the A button. The core loop involves exploring each area to find items and interact with characters by pressing the B or Y buttons. Some objects can be picked up and used elsewhere to solve puzzles.

The game is a mix of adventure and action. You'll need to talk to characters (approach and press the action button) to receive hints or items. The inventory is handled via Select - press it to open the menu, then use the shoulder buttons to cycle through items. Combine items if needed. Watch out for hazards like enemies or traps; you can attack with the B button. Since the menus are in Japanese, memorizing the layout helps - for example, the top option usually means 'Talk' or 'Use'. If you get stuck, try using every item on every object or character.

Because this is the FDS version, saving is handled by the disk system. Make sure to follow on-screen prompts to save your progress at certain points. The game is relatively short but can be tricky without understanding the language; patience and experimentation are key.
