Nail 'n' Scale is a puzzle video game developed by Data East for the Nintendo Game Boy.

Gameplay

In Nail 'n' Scale, the player controls Spike, a skilled climber. The player plays their way through levels of heightening difficulty. In each level, the player uses climbing spikes to navigate through the level to the door at the end of each level. The climbing spikes are also used to break bricks that block the path. There are 51 levels in all, with a boss every 10th level.

There are three special items, which include:

  • Magical door: completes the level regardless of the player's location
  • White spike: a spike that will not break the brick when jumped on
  • Exploding spike: a spike that explodes after a short period of time, destroying the brick it is fired into, provided that the block could be broken normally.
