James Pond II: Codename RoboCod is a platformer that was ported to the Sega Game Gear and Sega Master System in 1993.
+ Level design is innovative and the stages are jam-packed with ideas that neatly come together to create a cohesive whole.+ Gameplay constantly surprises by reversing gravity, speeding you along a moving train, and giving you vehicles to ride.
+ 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.
+ Physics when moving along sloped platforms is impressive, and the interesting locales have some unique parallax scrolling.
- Floaty controls don't offer real precision, as the horizontal movement is too great despite light taps on the d-pad.
- Boss battles are a cakewalk and within seconds you'll decipher their simple attack patterns for a swift victory.
