The bulk of the game is side-viewed, involving single screens to pass through, which incorporate ropes, cages and trapdoor.
There are enemies walking, flying and hovering through this, and many of them respawn.
Unusually your weapon to take them on (rocks) can be thrown through 360 degrees, which aims to make the gameplay more realistic and methodical.
The screens were linked by hub screens, which the player passes through simply by clicking on a door.
About Sega Genesis
Known as the Mega Drive outside North America, the Sega Genesis (1988/1989) was Sega's most successful console and Sonic the Hedgehog's original home, fueling the "console wars" era against Nintendo's SNES. Genesis cartridge collecting is well-established: common sports and platformer titles are affordable, while sports-license and later-era games with smaller print runs can carry a meaningful premium.
