It is not just Jim that looks great, the supporting cast, especially the bad guys look fantastic too. But the controls may just send you crawling back into the dirt. Overall, this portable Earthworm is fine for fans who want to take their EWJ show on the road. When a precarious situation arises, poor controls make grabbing a ledge, whipping a hook, or aiming your pistol a difficult task. The 16-bit sound effects, like screams and grunts, aren't included, which diminishes the humor.Ĭontrol is this cart's biggest flaw, though the blame lies partly with the two-button Game Gear setup. Tough BaltĮach level baits you with original music, from funky jazz to a down-home jamboree.
Jim himself looks the same and has most of the movements and expressions that made him a star. With his body as a whip and a deadly blaster by his side, Earthworm Jim becomes a superhero!
