Cool World is an action game released in 1992 for the Nintendo NES. The game is set in a bizarre, animated world where players control a character navigating through various levels filled with enemies and obstacles. The main objective is to progress through stages by defeating foes and overcoming platforming challenges to ultimately confront the antagonist.
The pace of the gameplay is moderately fast, requiring players to react quickly to enemy attacks and environmental hazards. A unique mechanic in Cool World involves the interaction between the real world and the cartoon universe, where players must switch between different dimensions to solve puzzles and advance in the game. This adds a layer of complexity beyond typical side-scrolling action titles.
One distinctive aspect of Cool World is its visual style, which attempts to mimic the look of the animated film it is based on, featuring hand-drawn characters and backgrounds. The unusual idea of blending reality with a cartoonish realm creates a distinctive atmosphere that sets the game apart from other NES action games of its time.
