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 |
