Babel no Tou means the Tower of Babel and is a game that was developed by Namco in 1986 for the Famicom. It is an action puzzle game and was never released outside of Japan.
The game consists of 64 "floors" or puzzles in which the aim is to arrange L-shaped blocks. You have to work on them and create stairs so that you can reach the exit of each floor. Some floors are sealed, for which the crystal balls must be collected so that you can escape. There are items that can be collected for bonus points and a small number of enemies that you need to avoid.
Babel no Tou was originally developed for arcade in amusement arcades and was converted accordingly for the NES. It is included in a compilation of Namco games released for the Gameboy in 1998. Later there was a variant for the Playstation.
