Animaniacs

[Melf]

The '90s saw some great cartoons, and among the best was Animaniacs, which made adults laugh just as hard as kids, with its pop culture references and subtle humor. Its huge sucess led to a ton of marketing, including video games. The Genesis platformer was a refreshing take on the genre and featured some great on-the-fly character swapping which was essential to passing each stage. Our full review tells the whole story, so read on and try not to go wacky! Or is that yacky? I can never tell...

wow, haven't played that game in years! Great cartoon, and a fun game I remember renting back in the day. Good review!

I remeber the game actually being a bit hard for kids actually, mostly with the quick reflex moments, and sometimes things not being oh-so-obvious. Still good though.

I loved the show and I loved the game. The team-based stuff reminded me a touch of The Lost Vikings, another game I adored as a youth, although not as in-depth. Never finished it though, and until right now I guess I just assumed it'd be longer than it actually is.

On a side note, I have this weird association with this game and being sick. I rented it from Blockbuster one Friday after a field trip in elementary school, and I didn't mention it to my mom until I got home because I didn't wanna leave the field trip earlier (which I had done before, as I was a very illness-prone child) and so I spent the weekend laid up with strep throat and a warm Genesis with this in it. I still loved the game, regardless of how difficult it was to eat or communicate verbally.
