Michael Jackson's Moonwalker adapts the King of Pop's film and universe to Master System with dance combat against villains. The version keeps the iconic soundtrack and pop iconography despite simplified animation. Pleasant for Michael Jackson fans, original in the license catalogue.

"Classic"
Adapted into chiptune with remarkable care, Michael Jackson's hits ring out here, from "Smooth Criminal" to "Bad", carrying every action level. Recognising these cult melodies on the console's chip brings an irresistible pleasure. This pop transposition, daring and rousing, is the whole charm of the game.
