About this product

Product Information

Sporting beautiful cartoon-like graphics from the 1991 animated series and an offbeat jazz soundtrack, Taz-Mania is a platform game suffering from short, unimaginative levels and an incredible number of blind jumps. Players control the whirling dervish through six multi-staged areas of jumping and spinning action, from an abandoned mine to a mouse-infested jungle. In addition to his patented spin attack, Taz can throw items at enemies and belch fire after consuming red peppers. While enemies are few and far between, hazards such as quicksand, slippery icebergs, and bottomless pits make for a devilish mix of trial-and-error gameplay.

    Taz-Mania isn't perfect, but it's darn good.

    Taz-Mania is a classic game for the Genesis and a must-have for your collection. I would give this game 5 stars, except the controls are not very good. However, if you get used to the controls, you'll still enjoy this game. The graphics are great and it's just like looking at a cartoon. Taz-Mania is still pretty cheap, so get it now, before the value goes up.

    It's okay for the right price.

    I played this back when I was a kid so me getting this again was based off of pure nostalgia. I;m not saying it's a bad game, its a cool platformer with nice graphics. Its a good game for one play through from beginning to end.

    This game brings back memories of the good ol' days. Not a great game, but a fun game. Nostalgia more than anything of days when there was no care in the world but my video games and I. Ahhhhhh I love it.

  • Different from what I remember. Lol

    Graphics are horrible from what I remember. The game did give me trouble to start but after cleaning it with a q-tip that a had a small amount of alchohol in it and letting it dry it worked . Game is simple... the exterior of the game was VERY worn down but I expected that

  • Taz-Mania!!!

    I bought this game on Nostalgia purposes, but at the price of 4 dollars and some change it was well worth the stroll down memory lane. I recommend this game for people that like side-scolling platformers or are fans of the Looney Tunes. It feels like you're playing an episode of Looney Tunes.
