Bubba 'N' Stix is a sidescrolling action game for the Sega Mega Drive.

In the US, the game was released with a Bubblicious brand tie-in. During gameplay, this is reflected by the special stages containing Bubblicious pack collectibles that simply give the player points.

A reportedly complete Sega Mega-CD version was planned for release^[4] in January^[5] (later February^[6], then March^[7]) 1994, but was cancelled for unknown reasons. Former developers at Core Design have confirmed its existence.
