Dick Tracy action platform adaptation in noir style with hard-boiled presentation. Stiff animations and dated level design. Anecdotal despite the film license.

Collector interest

A Bandai tie-in to the Dick Tracy film, this NTSC-only action-platformer trades more on the licence than on the game, which stayed dated. Its collecting interest is limited to the movie-tie-in fan chasing a complete US copy with box and manual. With no real scarcity and no aura, it keeps a minor place and a modest value, carried mainly by film nostalgia.
