About this game
Millipedes, cousins of the Centipede, are all over the garden.
This will ruin anything trying to grow there unless they are stopped.

But there are other insects as well; spiders, bees, dragonflies, and earwigs.
Luckily, there's a bug zapper that can shoot arrows at these insects and destroy them.
Millipede is the sequel to Centipede , and features similar gameplay, but with a new swarm of insects! The goal is to destroy the multi-segmented millipede as it traverses its way through the mushroom forest towards the bottom of the screen.
When all millipede segments have been destroyed, the player will progress to the next, more difficult level.
Millipedes and other creatures are all worth a different amount of points.
Occasionally DDT will appear on the screen, which will explode if shot by the bug zapper.
With a well-timed shot, numerous millipede segments (and other insects as well) can be taken out as they pass by.
About Game Boy
The original Game Boy (1989) proved that handheld gaming didn't need cutting-edge graphics to succeed — its monochrome screen and legendary battery life, combined with Tetris as a pack-in, made it a cultural phenomenon. Game Boy cartridges are famously durable, so this remains one of the more accessible retro platforms to collect, though translucent color variants and complete-in-box copies with the original brick-sized manual add real value for condition-focused collectors.
Gamevaro tracks Millipede for Game Boy with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Millipede to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GB release dates back to 1982.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
