Bubsy the bobcat needs your help to get through 15 levels of fractured fairy tales. The levels reflect stories such as Alice in Wonderland, Jack and the Beanstalk, Ali Baba, Twenty Thousand Leagues and Hansel & Gretel. Bubsy must face a boss at the end of each set of levels before proceeding to the next story. The joypad controls allow you to move Bubsy or make him jump, glide, or look for hazards. Dangerous foes include speedy wasps, army ants, sharks, and a custard pie throwing machine. Jump on them before they touch you and take one of your lives. The game includes a passcode feature that allows you to resume at any level you previously completed.
