Toejam and Earl
Toejam and Earl 2 - Panic on Funkotron
Author/Vendor: JVP/Sega
Released: various
Type: Action
Language: English and German
Premise: Toejam and Earl are two happenin' space dudes who run into a spot of trouble when their space crusier is forced crash-land on the planet Earth. Now they have to figure out a way to deal with the stupid and rather primitive natives that this strange planet seems to have inflicted upon them.
Impressions: Cute and funny, these are some of the true treasures of the Sega Genesis game library. As Rage Games noted, "For a game with no gameplay it sure is fun to play."
Variations: Toejam and Earl (1991, our heroes must find all the pieces needed to repair their wrecked space cruiser while avoiding the humans - all levels are randomly generated and has two-player simultaneous gameplay)
Toejam and Earl 2 - Panic on Funkotron (1993, our heroes have made it home but find to their chagrin that some of those boorish humans have sneaked along for the ride - graphically superior to, but not as funny as the original)
The off-world duo also make a cameo appearance in the mini-game Ready! Aim! Tomatoes!, which can be found on the Menacer 6-in-1 game cart.
Recommended Emu: Genecyst X
