- Probably one of the most obscure and forgotten licensed games of the 16-bit era. And understandably so...I remember getting this game when I was very young (the cartoon is one of my all-time favorites ever.) and I was disappointed in it since it was so weird and not what I expected. A puzzle/platformer is not exactly a perfect game for a 5 yr old. But I didn't hate either. I did beat this game finally when I was in my mid teens and I haven't played it since. But revisiting it for a playthrough was a somewhat rewarding experience. I still love the music, I finally got to understand how a lot of the gameplay works and it was a lot easier this time around. Not a perfect game by any means; more of an oddity then anything, but not the worst either. Glad I played it again.
Hope You Enjoy!
The first game I worked on at Ocean
The frustration that this game brought to me as a kid essentially carries on to this day. Your game is so bad that it almost ruined gaming for entirely. You should feel bad about yourself.
lol. Apologies but I was only in QA at the time. There were many more hardships to follow such as Shaq Fu. Can't beat the Nintendo seal of quality
J russ shut up
I feel nostalgic, I was a little child but I still remember that I played this game for hours :) If I still remember, it's because he left me good memories (even it was a little frustrating sometimes ^^)
This wasn’t a bad puzzle game, but it’s hardly at all faithful to the source material! What were you guys thinking!?
Gotta love the last boss fight being nothing but a cutscene.
I remembered this game all of a sudden. I think I either rented it once or borrowed it from a friend. Also, those toy commercials with the heads.
Being a kid in the 90's was the best.
This brings back memories. They rented this game for me when I was a kid all the time lol and those VHS episodes of the cartoon.
As a kid I never got passed the lava world
I always wished they'd used the Lost Vikings format for this game with Max, Norman, and Virgil being the 3 characters with their own unique strengths solving the puzzles of each level. That would seriously have been a classic. Playing as just Max with a gun is stupid 🙄
Glad to know I'm not the only one that brainstormed that idea as a format that they should have went with back then for this game. I appreciate the game now and all its quirkyness but still kinda do wish/wonder what could've been if they had gone a different route in terms of design and gameplay. Personally I thought it would have been cool if we had a beat'em style game with Norman as a main character since he was by far my favorite character as a kid. I like what we got but yeah the Lost Vikings format would've been totally awesome!
@@RentalRewindGaming 100% I had the same thoughts about a beat'em up that took place in the future when Max was older. Each one had a different playstyle. Then I started thinking Lost Vikings because it'd be faithful to the original show. I had this thought that Max would be really fast and able to crawl into small spaces and teleport with short range portals throughout the level. He'd have some limited beat'em up Karate fighting against smaller foes, but Norman would be full on beat'em up with the ability to stomp larger foes that Max can't hurt. Virgil would decipher old hieroglyphs and runes that would allow Max to unlock certain areas of the level. It's Max's job to get them to certain places they can't reach, Virgil's to show them how, and Norman's to clean out the areas with some solid ass kicking. Damn I'd love that.
I rented this when I was a kid, I didn't know what I was doing so I returned it and exchanged it for TMNT Turtles in Time.
I can certainly relate for sure. I was a hardcore fan of the TV show and toys as a little kid so when my dad brought it home for me I was ecstatic to say the least. Was rather disappointed in it though since I had no idea what to do or how to properly play it at the time. Thought that the game probably should have been a beat'em up style game or a more straightforward platformer. In hindsight, I appreciate the originality of the game even if it was flawed. But yeah I would have swapped it out for TMNT as well back then.
Man, this is one of the games you were seriously pissed off after renting it over the weekend...
My dad brought it back for me after business trip of some sort back when it came out since I was MAJOR fan of the show, still am too. Remember playing it and thinking that on one hand I liked the music and the look but where tge hell was Norman, Virgil, Skullmaster, Warmonger and other villains from the show? Took a lot of years to fully appreciate its quirks but most understandable for those who didn't or still don't. It's a bit of an oddball for sure
Looks extremely hard and super fast.
this looks super difficult. the jump is way too high.
1:02:20 That was a close call because seven more minutes and you’re done for!!!
This game confused me to no end as a kid
Me too...I think it confused pretty much everyone lol!
Yes guys I did beat your shows the universe itself is mighty max its ladr written bye guys ...
I am very good at this game I have this game on both Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. The Super Nintendo has the daytime version while the Sega Genesis has the nighttime version.
Mummy prymind mighty max ring 💍 all right
Game somewhat reminds me of first Commander Keen.
Yes thank you. It makes think of '90s PC games too.
What?
What's Max doing? Why is he throwing buckets in space?
He loves drugs
All this time we were just playing for a cutscene damn that sucks
Yeah...totally agree there. I spent over a decade playing it and trying to beat it and that was it....a cutscene. No end battle with Skullmaster.......what a rip. And I actually really like the game too its just such a bloody shame that they dropped the ball there like that. So yeah..totally agree with you 1000%
That jump and the way it pulls the camera is just horrendous! I feel like I need dramamine just to watch this.
It certainly takes getting used to that's for sure. Remember it was a bit of an adjustment when I first started playing it when I got it back in 1995. Unique to say the least lol!
In hindsight, it probably took less development time to make something like this, rather than make something closer to the cartoon. I think something closer to the cartoon would have been a beat em up/ platforming game with some puzzle elements on some levels. I would also think you could change characters on the fly to help with the puzzle element. The art style would have been closer to Demon's Crest or the Gargoyles game on the Genesis. Sort of colorful saturated but dark.
I was a MASSIVE fan of this show back when it was on cable and I had most of the toys as well, still do in fact. I remember my dad brought this game home from Toys R' Us (along with the Skull Mountain playset) and it was packaged with the "Let The Sleeping Dragon Lie" episode (think it was a blue-covered VHS). I recall being super excited to play it and then being pretty confused by it and wondering where the hell was Norman and Virgil? Of course I figured out that they are in the game, just not in the way that I thought or hoped they would be. I liked the game as a kid but I honestly did not play it as often as a few others that we had. I think I was subtly disappointed in the design choice for the game (add in the Space level which I could not beat so yeah I was stumped on it for years) and was the first time I ever experienced being let down by a game before. Loved the music though, and the options to play as Max's' friends Bea and Felix was a nice touch too. I did finish it years later and I was actually glad that I sat down and replayed the game again since as time has passed I really have come to like and kinda appreciated the game's quirky nature oddly. Became rather fond of it with the passing of time one could say lol! I do wonder though what could have become of the game though if it were to go the more traditional route of say a straight-forward platformer or a beat'em up as you suggested. Would love to see how that could have turned out, but oh well. It is what it is and I do still enjoy it for what it is. Now they just need to release an official set of the TV series and I would be all set and over the moon to boot lol!
@@RentalRewindGaming Yea I feel like they could have done more given the source material. But again, they were probably on a timed schedule to get the game out and the budget wasn't the best. I would be cool if someone made a SNES homebrew game with a better vision.
It's unsurprising two of the most prominent characters - Norman and Skull Master - are in this game (especially as the latter's the main villain).
Is this game good or bad? Because it’s on the Pocketgo.
Jordan Van Dyk :Ok thanks.
Man, what a bad game for a cartoon show; and what a disappointing ending!
Isn't this supposed to be HORROR-themed???
I grew up loving the show and there wasn't a lot in the game that really reflected the show or the toys that it was based off. I think I have actually come to like this game a bit more now then I did when I was a kid when I got it. Its alright, just wish that more of the show itself and its creepy comic book-style horror was more accurately shown
Era bastante cuadrado el motor grafico de este juego jajajjaa para momias
where are the monsters? i mean: if the enemy creature sprites would be just bigger, at least bigger than max, i could see them being scary... however: not even a single boss battle for each erea? thats a waste and very disapointing.
Totally agree!!! With all the cool monsters in the show and from the toys (which at one point I had nearly all of them) there absolutely should have been bosses at the end of the level. No excuse there....
First game I finished. OMG it is horrible.
The space level gave me headaches. Not enough color, too bland. My favorite level is the water or Inca level.
How many levels is in this game
✔
The music in this version is so bad. Genesis version has the superior sound in my opinion.
This game looks boring and graphics and art makes no sense compared to the cartoon
Visually speaking I could figure out what they were doing rather quickly but is what I would have liked them to do with it, not overly. Could've been done better but I guess its weird quirkyness is what helps make it stand out to me, whether it be when I was a kid or as an adult nowadays. Just makes me wonder what could've been though from time to time...
the game does not resemble the toys at all!!! :(
soooooooooooooo bad
Looks a shit, animatef series were very good, but this...horrible
