Description
Marsupilami the yellow-spotted animal battles enemies in the jungle in this Sega Mega Drive platformer. Published by Sega, released in the United States in 1995. Colourful platformer with Marsupilami using his tail as a whip, varied jungle levels and comic series bosses.
A platformer drawn from the comic from Sega, Marsupilami stars the long yellow tailed animal across jungle levels where cooperation with a baby elephant solves progression puzzles. The blend of platforming and cooperative thinking, the faithful art direction and the character's humour give a likeable identity. The somewhat slow handling sometimes reins in the pace. For a fan of the licence or a fan of retro puzzle platforming, the title keeps a good natured charm and an original cooperation mechanic.
