About This Retro Game
Developed by Sega AM7, the game incorporates elements from Jackson's 'Smooth Criminal' short film and allows players to perform the famous anti-gravity lean move.
The Genesis version features five stages with unique boss battles, each ending with a musical performance sequence. Jackson's 'Beat It', 'Billie Jean', and 'Bad' outfits appear as power-up transformations.
Notable for its co-op mode where a second player can join as Bubbles the chimp. The game was controversial for its child-rescue premise but became a cult classic among rhythm-action fans.
