Chuck Rock is an action-platformer that was released on numerous systems including the Sega Genesis (1991).
+ Has some clever rock uses, such as being able to carry a boulder above your head to protect against volcanic eruptions.
+ Combining rocks to reach otherwise inaccessible areas is a great idea that adds an exploratory puzzle-like element.
+ Expanded levels make the CD adventure more comprehensive, and a password feature has also been added.
+ Presentational upgrades from the Genesis version are welcome, including the awesome CD soundtrack and world map.
- Bosses are easily exploitable and it can be tricky to accurately judge spatial distance due to Chuck's short attack range.
- Enemies often hide behind the foreground scenery for cheap hits and have a tendency to throw projectiles from off-screen.
