Cool Spot adapts the 7 Up mascot to Game Gear. Platform action with the red dot, summer levels and spot rescue. A decent Virgin mascot adaptation faithful to cartoon spirit.

Description
Platform game starring Cool Spot, the 7 Up mascot.
Cool Spot turns the 7 Up mascot into a Virgin-made platformer whose 16-bit versions are still praised for their animation. On Game Gear the loose value stays low while complete copies climb sharply, the result of an advergame that few survived boxed on the US market. Its pull comes from being a soda-brand advergame, a niche piece for collectors of commercial tie-ins rather than from raw scarcity.
