Judge (model no. IP-05) is a multiplayer game in the Game & Watch series. The unit was released as part of the Silver series in 1980.
Two versions of Judge were released: a "green" version and a "purple" version. With the original release, featuring green plastic on the back and sides, there was a bug in which each player would receive a different number of points if the opponent dodged at an incorrect time. This was fixed in the updated release, which uses purple plastic.

Gameplay
Two characters each have a hammer. After four counting sounds and three time signal sounds, the characters each hold up a placard with a number. If the player's number is larger, they must hit the opposing player with the hammer; if the player's number is smaller, they must run away. Each character earns three points for hitting the opponent and two points for dodging the opponent's attack. If both characters have the same number on their placards, the character who attacks first gets three points, while the one who dodges first gives the opponent two points. If the player dodges by mistake, the opponent receives two points. If the player hits the opponent by mistake, the opponent hits the player back and receives five points. The winner is the first one to get 99 points. Game B features a two-player mode.
