Came across this on eBay and seeing triggered a flood of extremely vague memories. I recall seeing ads for it...looked like a platformer...and I, at the time, wished to play it. Can anyone help me out here?

It's a damn good game and you need to play it now. :D

It's an OK game, nothing too special about it, but you should play it once.

Not one to miss if you like (European) platformers.

it's a pretty unique platform/puzzle game, but the gameplay is too slow.

There are a great many good things that comes with beeing European. 16-bit Plattformer games arent part of them.

yuckgsy,A almost direct port of the genesis version,nothing much special,Why did seg port like to much games From genesis straight over to md cd,okay theyre trowing in FMV,s nothing special to add,some games are nicer because like batman returns ,you get the race seqeunces also and you can choose,makes a unatractive game atractive.But like Demo man Like terminator like mickey mania like Pugsy like Marko youlle get the almost same kind of games aggian and since they already where mediocore you get the same (somethimes)carp aggain.BTW overall mega cd is pretty fine.

I've got the Genesis version of Puggsy, and try as I might I just cannot get into it. The item manipulation in it is pretty neat and original for a platformer in its day, but the main character just ruins any appeal the game might have had for me. It just seems like very little thought was put into what they actually dressed up the game engine with, and it's so bland/blah that I just can't force myself to keep playing. :?
