Genre: Action

















ToeJam & Earl is an action game developed by Johnson Voorsanger Productions, and published by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive. It stars two extra-terrestrial rappers who, by way of pilot error, end up crash-landing on Earth. While there, they must search for the missing pieces of their spacecraft in hopes of reassembling it. The game frequently parodies and satirizes 1990s urban culture, and includes common 90's slang and a funk soundtrack. Much of this charm is what drew people toward the game.

Gameplay

The game takes place in a surreal isometric world representing Earth, where land is in the form of a stack of randomly-generated floating islands. In each island the player must collect missing pieces of the spacecraft while also collecting various powerups that can aid in avoiding enemies or quickly navigating the island.

Each island is linked via an elevator. If the player falls off the edge of an island, they land onto the previous island where they will have to find the elevator again.

Gameplay ends when the player finds all 10 pieces of the spacecraft.
