Genesis-A-Day: Animaniacs

Upon finding a magic lamp, Alex rubs out a genie. Obviously, Alex wishes for a ton of genesis games. In this feature, Alex documents the results of that wish.

More of this!

Time played: 5 minutes.

People/animals kissed: 4.

I felt bad taking this game because Paul must be playing it soon on SNES since he takes his games in alphabetical order, but i really wanted to play this.  I forgot how it played form back in the day, but after about 2 seconds I remembered that this is actually a fun game.   Remember Three Vikings?  Each one had a unique ability, and you solved puzzles by using the right ability it the right time.  It plays out like a puzzle game rather than an action platformer.

One has a hammer, one has a ping pong paddle, and one blows kisses.  For some reason the hammer lights fuses to bombs and cannons?  That took me a long time to figure out.  It's a funny game (T-Rex with robot legs running by for no reason?  Yes please.)   It's not perfect, the controls are a little finicky, but I really enjoyed this game.  I want to go back and see all the levels which have a movie set theme to all of them which gives it variety, yet an interesting play on the scenery.
