3D platformer with Gex, the comedian gecko. Pop culture humour and English voice acting are the title's charm. Gameplay is decent but no revolution against Crash or Mario. Pleasant for discovery.

Is Gex still worth playing in 2026?

Gex brings Crystal Dynamics' platformer to Saturn, featuring a caustic gecko sucked into a parody television universe where he crosses levels pastiching films and shows. The referential humor, the hero's incessant one-liners and the sticky-tongue mechanic bring a certain personality. The slightly stiff handling and an uneven level design betray the era. For fans of retro mascot platformers and parody humor, it is a likable curiosity, mainly carried by the character's offbeat tone.
