Once upon a time there were no video games. People actually read fairy tales for kicks. Well, the biggest hit around was the one about three little piggies who were into building houses. Unfortunately, an unsavory character named Bigelow B. Wolf was into blowing them down. It was a real drag. Until now. Because, lo and behold, today we've got Oink! A video game that lets you lend those little guys a hand. It's wacky, it's wily. It's one heck of a way to block that bully's every breath. Why, it's so exciting, even if you hate oinkers, you'll still love Oink! Because in this game you can also be (heh heh) the Wolf!

Not so fast, fellas - instead, the sludge has transformed you into an amorphous green ooze with unusual abilities - talents which you will need to settle with those bastards and put an end to their little schemes!

Interesting and original, this is a great little action game that probably got overlooked for the same reasons as Comix Zone. A bit tricky to master at first, but well worth the effort.

Operation: Cleanstreets is an Action game, developed by Silmarils and published by Broderbund, which was released in 1988.

Operation Neptune is an Action game, developed and published by Infogrames, which was released in 1988.

The evil space wizard Krohn has mastered the power to control a black hole, and plans on using this power to control the universe. You are an explorer on assignment in a remote corner of the universe. You have just been reassigned to fight Krohn since your ship, the Millennium Orb, is the only space craft cabable of withstanding Krohn's black hole. To defeat Krohn, you must get past 30 different chambers blocking the path. On the left and right side of each chamber are force fields which you must maneuver to keep the Millennium orb within the chamber. Each chamber contains a plane in the center with various targets, around which the Orb will travel. You can make the Orb dive out of it's orbital path into the plane and hit the targets. To complete each chamber you need to complete a goal with the targets (often you will need to figure out a way to clear them all.) The Millenium Orb has a limited amount of feul, however, which will be used up over time and in even greater quantities should you miss the Orb with the force fields. When fuel is low, you can head to Vern's Orb-O-Rama and use earned credits to refuel your Orb.

Included with the game is a pair of 3-D glasses which can give the game a more 3 dimensional appearance, though they aren't required for gameplay.

Oscar is a platform game that was released in 1993, and was developed and published by Flair Software.

The player controls a character named Oscar through seven hollywood-themed levels collecting Oscars.

A platform shoot-em-up that doesn't just 'borrow heavily' from Capcom's 1989 classic, "Strider", it blatantly steals from it. The player controls a 'Cannon Dancer' called Kirrin : a highly acrobatic hero who is also a skilled martial arts fighter. Kirrin must jump and fight his way over a number of colorful, intricately-rendered levels in his bid to defeat the enemy forces. In addition to the many power-ups that are available to strengthen Kirrin's attacks (with each power-up indicated by a color change to Kirrin's costume), the player is armed with three 'Magic' attacks per life, which work in a similar fashion to those of Sega's "Shinobi".

The Strider-esque gameplay is, if anything, an improvement over the illustrious game upon which it is based. As well as the improved graphics, understandable given the six years that separates the two games, OSman's level design is hugely inventive and offers more variety than Strider's stages.

The Ottifants is a 2D Platformer game, published by Sega, which was released in Europe in 1993.

The Ottifants, apparently, is some kind of big smash hit cartoon in Germany. 'Aha!' think Sega, 'we could probably license that and make a few quid. What could we do with it?' A pause, punctuated only by the sound of scratching heads. A tentative voice from the back of the room. 'Er, how about a cutesy platformer? It's a crazy useridea, but I think it might just work.'
