  Quarth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Game Boy version would be the last until 2005 when Konami placed it in the Nintendo DS game Goemon: Mystical Ninja DS.
Quarth is a lot like the Tetris-age video games, in that the player's main focus is on falling blocks, and the action is geometrical.
It distinguishes itself, however, on the fact that, rather than arranging the blocks together at the bottom to make a row of dissapearing blocks, the spaceship positioned at the bottom of the screen actually shoots blocks upwards to make the falling block pattern into rectangles.

 Curmudgeon Gamer - Quarth
Quarth was mentioned a total of one time in that magazine, but it caught my attention hard.
Your ship, Quarth, which is guided by angels clinging to its hull (honest!), flies slowly upward through a scrolling interstellar space filled with vaguely rectangular formations of blocks.
The most important skill in Quarth, and one that'll take most players a huge amount of practice to pick up, is the ability to fire exactly one shot into several consecutive columns as fast as possible.

Quarth, the spaceship, guided by the Angels that God sent, was launched into space in order to destroy the villains.
A Quarth game can last a good hour if you play it from beginning to end, so if you don't have the patience to continue playing for hours, you can set your own aim to improve your score.
Quarth is no exception and I recommend you to take advantage of them.

 Quarth - Digital Press Online   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Quarth is a conversion of a 1989 Konami arcade game, released as "Block Hole" in the US.
Randomly configured shapes are scrolling down at you from top to bottom, and you must shoot small square blocks up at them to form squares or rectangles.
Quarth also has a two-player mode via link cable, but unfortunately, I don't have a second cart to test this.

Quarth Game by Konami (by way of Ultra) Reviewed by dM97 p_nguyen@ix.netcom.com Size: 512 kilobits Save: no save feature Released: 1990 Works with: works with all GameBoy hardware (classic, Pocket, Light, Color) **************************************************************************** Opening Snide Remarks: An fairly original puzzle game with an action element to it.
Quarth is a puzzle game and a simple one at that.
Quarth does hold up well for being such an old game and shouldn't cost too much if you're able to track down a copy.

 CHOW: aCoK - Daenerys II or, Behold Quarth in all its Pornographic and Exotic Splendor!
We meet our fair-haired and potentially bisexual heroine as she and her weak l'il khalasar are making an unexpectedly grand entrance into Quarth, city of story and splendor, home of warlocks, camels, and painted children.
Quarth is all that Vaes Tolorro was not, brightly colored, with "towers taller than any Dany had ever seen" and "elaborate fountains in every square." We get detailed descriptions of the Quartheen themselves - "tall pale folk in linen and samite and tiger fur, every one a lord or lady in her eyes.
Before mincing off in jeweled splendor, Xaro tells Dany of the low status of the warlocks in Quarth these days, their influence is long gone, and that those who deal with them get screwed in the end.

 Quarth (Japan) dip switch settings (Konami, 1989)
The dip switch settings for Quarth (Japan) shown below are automatically parsed from Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator (www.mame.net) C source code, so some of the settings can be incorrect.
However, if you notice that some settings are constantly incorrectly displayed in more than one game, please contact me so that I can fix the problem.
If you are trying to change this game's language or region, you might have to replace/reprogram some of the game's ROM chips.

 Quarth demo (Software and gaming MSX Forum) - MSX Resource Center   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The cartridge was hand made, it had no label, there is a Japanese adverticement text at start and end, numbering in levels goes up to "A" instead of "9" and there is only 4 stages I think.
If there is no trick that can make the full version of Quarth fit 128K, I think I'll try to make a disk/tape version of Quarth demo that will fit the memory.
It contains almost full version of Quarth (releases all 10 stages in stead of 4 and activates the end demo).

 Quarth - Reader Review - GameFAQs
While in Japan Quarth had a cult hit in the arcades, it suffered in the U.S. Oh sure, they lightened things a little bit, beginning with the name change from Quarth to Block Hole.
Quarth is the spaceship hero, guided by the Angels that God sent us, and it will be launched into space in order to destroy those villains.
The first one is the original Quarth, the other one is a futuristic spaceship.

 Seeking opinions on Quarth (Software and gaming Foros MSX) - MSX Resource Center   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Quarth is a nice game, but the single-player mode is missing something.
Quarth is one of the most ultimate awesome challenging, not to mention multiplayer, game I have ever played.
Knowing Konami making something special of every game type ever thought up, Quarth is well worth having and playing.

 Re: CHOW: aCoK - Daenerys II or, Behold Quarth in all its Pornographic and Exotic Splendor!
This one is serious enough, and appears to be a historical reference to either deeds done by or against Quarthe.
I would give it 1/2, for reminding us that the Quartheen are not isolated from savagery despite their obviously refined sensibilities.

Chris just found that the warranty ran out: "I seem to remember playing Quarth (also known as "Block Hole") on my old Amiga 500, yet can find no sign of this game anywhere on google.
Yes, the Mame rom shows up but this was an Amiga 500 - hardly a system capable of running Mame, not to mention the fact that mame didnt exist back then.
But to answer you, yes, Quarth was available on the Amiga MSX2 platform:

This turned Kapugen to K'gen, and made the former tanner extremely happy, and guaranteeing that some of his formerly mischievious energy would be turned towards his dragon.
Quarth does not have much fat or muscle on him and is a gorgeous ginger and cinnamon brown.
Dragon Personality: Quarth is very frightened and skiddish, afraid of most things, except K'gen, who hopes to help his dragon overcome his fears.

Like in the first series, all the graphics from the existing games have been colored.
Parodius and Track & Field look great, but Quarth is hard on the eyes, and Frogger looks about average as far as Frogger goes.
Block Game, which was released in the US about a decade ago as Quarth certainly didn't cut it as a standalone puzzle game, but in a compilation it's not bad.

 MAWS - showing driver: blockhl.c
An interrupt happens, and after rti the ROM bank is not the same as before so it jumps to garbage code.
The code is almost identical in the two versions, it looks like Quarth is working just because luckily the interrupt doesn't happen at that point.
It seems that the interrupt handler trashes the selected ROM bank and forces it to 0.

 Quarth (Game Boy) Review
In Quarth, your mission is to destroy tetrads falling from the sky to keep the Quarthdome below safe.
I think the game is fun to play, but not everybody will enjoy it and/or stay interested for very long.
Overall, Quarth is an interesting puzzle game that is worth picking up if puzzles are your thing.

 Konami Sound Cartridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This means you can load those games into the RAM (eg.
Gradius 2, F1 Spirit, Quarth and so on) and it will behave like the original ROM cartridge until the power is turned off, since it is volatile RAM.
It is possible that this chip was originally developed for internal development and testing use at Konami.

After barely defeating Quarth in our game of chess, I returned to my room in the pale light of early dawn, and surprisingly slept, instead of meditating, in the lumpy, moth eaten, tavern bed.
That she could very potentially be an assassin sent by Lord Krill's cronies, and her mysterious behavior justified my arresting her for furthur justice at the hands of Quarth.
I reminded her that he has truth magics, so all would know the truth eventually, anyway.
