James Pond II: Codename RoboCod is a platformer that was also released on the Sega Game Gear (1993) and Sega Genesis (1991).
+ Level design is innovative and the stages are jam-packed with ideas that neatly come together to create a cohesive whole.
+ Gameplay varies thing up by giving you fun vehicles to ride, and including auto-scrolling levels / tons of verticality.
+ Replayability is high, as there's an enormous amount of bonus items and secret areas to locate if you're willing to explore.
+ Ability to stretch your character's arms to reach higher ledges is inspired and serves to deepen the gameplay.
- Controls are over-sensitive which makes for some tricky platforming, and the SFX are rather weak throughout.
- Bosses offer little resistance and their simple attack patterns can easily be exploited within seconds of battle commencing.
