You need to help Peter Puppy get through a level, you need to race Psy-Crow and you even need to bungee jump from a living booger! You will need to get to the end of a level, fight bosses, and so on, but Earthworm Jim also has other things in store. Jim can run and jump, but he also can use a gun and he can use his head as a whip and also a grappling hook as well. I know I have said a couple of times now that Earthworm Jim is a platform game, but it actually offers far more than that. The visuals are accompanied by a stellar soundtrack and some very high-quality voice samples that help bring the characters to life even more. There is a ton of imagination in the levels as well. 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! Starting out in New Junk City, you battle ferocious poodles, then journey on to Heck where you're surrounded by fire, brimstone, and even worse.lawyers!ĮWJ's imaginative graphics carry over well in the 8-bit version the levels are close to its 16-bit brethren but obviously less detailed.

The twisted adventure begins when Psy-Crow loses his space suit on Earth, and a lowly earthworm named Jim happens to crawl inside. Although this cart is graphically slick, it suffers from dismal controls. One of 1994's most popular games, Earthworm Jim could take the handheld world by storm.
