About This Game
Features 4 storybook worlds: Little Red Riding Hood (with UFOs), Jack and the Beanstalk (cybernetic giants), Alice in Wonderland (psychedelic), and The Wizard of Oz (techno-themed).
Retains Bubsy's signature gameplay elements: yarn balls collection, pogo tail jump, and sarcastic one-liners delivered through speech samples.
Notable for being one of the few Jaguar platformers, utilizing the system's hardware for parallax scrolling and large character sprites.
Criticized for awkward collision detection and repetitive level design, but gained cult status for its surreal humor and as a rare Jaguar exclusive.
