Gordo 106: The Mutated Lab Monkey is a platformer released in 1993 for the Atari Lynx. Players control Gordo, a lab monkey who has mutated after an experiment gone wrong. The main objective is to navigate through various levels filled with obstacles and enemies, aiming to escape the laboratory while collecting items and power-ups.
The game's pace is moderately fast, requiring quick reflexes and precise jumps to overcome hazards and defeat hostile creatures. A unique mechanic in Gordo 106 is the ability to throw darts, which adds a ranged combat element uncommon in many platformers of its time. This mechanic encourages strategic use of limited ammunition to clear paths and defeat enemies from a distance.
What distinguishes this 1993 Atari Lynx platformer is its science-fiction theme paired with a mutated animal protagonist, which provides an unusual twist compared to typical platform games featuring human characters. The combination of exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving elements creates a distinctive gameplay experience on the handheld GBC fighting game market.
