Bubsy  
Background: Your a Bobcat named Bubsy who must travel through several fractured fairytales such as Alice and Wonderland, Jack and the Beanstock, Hansel & Gretel, and Arabian Nights. Along the way you must battle such baldies as Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dummer, soldier playing cards, and punk flamingos.Game Play: At first brush this game looks promising. The cartoon like graphics are nice and the storyline is fairly original. However soon thereafter your optimism turns to frustration. First of all every time you die Bubsy states “Oh sure, lets torch the Bubster.” This would not be so bad except you die often. The lack of control over the Bubster is the downfall of this game. He will often get away from you and end up running into an enemy. Bubsy only needs to run into an enemy once and he dies. This is somewhat mitigated by the many lives you start with, however even that is not enough. Perhaps if you can be patient enough you can master the controls, but this is suppose to be fun not work

Pros: graphics, storyline
Cons: Lack of control, repeating phrases
