Gex is an action-platformer that was also released on the Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation.
+ Memorable moments include using portals to switch between dimensions, and a treacherous climb up a vertical structure.
+ A clever mechanic is how bug balls can either be snagged via your tongue for a power-up, or whipped to refill hit points.
+ Gameplay can be challenging at times, but the difficulty is fair and there's an abundance of health items scattered around.
+ Unlike the PlayStation and Saturn ports (which use a password system), the 3DO version saves your game to SRAM.
- Frame-rate is choppy and the camera moves in a jittery way that can be disorientating when making quick movements.
- Stage map is marred by an unintuitive interface, and having to select remotes to open levels is arduous.
