    20 em 1 (translated as 20 in 1) is a collection of 20 original games developed and published by Brazilian company Tectoy for the Sega Master System.

    The cartridge was only sold bundled with a certain version of Tectoy's Master System III Compact, and as such had no box of its own and was never sold outside Brazil. The games included in the collection were made for children and are relatively basic, ranging from driving to platformers to shoot-'em-ups. None of the terrible games have been named, being only identified by numbers.

    Gameplay

    All of the games give you 60 seconds to reach a certain score, which varies from game to game. In most of the games the only buttons available are Left and Right, which move the character to the respective direction, but some games allow you to perform an action, such as jumping or shooting, with button 1 or button 2.

    Game 02
    You control a hungry lunar creature, that needs to collect pieces of cake and burgers while avoiding explosive obstacles, which will decrease your score if touched. On this game the screen scrolls both to the right and to the left, and every time it is done the items and obstacles on the floor change. You can also use the Up and Down buttons, while moving horizontally.

    Game 03
    You are a skateboarder boy who earns points by just moving forward and loses points when you touch the obstacles. The Left button is used for braking, and the Up and Down buttons can only be used if the character is moving forward.
