Advantages: Pure entertainment.

Disadvantages: Quite short and for the megadrive.

I had this game on the Sega Megadrive and it distinctly sticks out n my mind as one of my favourite games of that era.

Develope by Virgin and Single Player only, you don't really expect much from the game but what it gives you is pure entertainment.

Cool spot is a 2D platforming game similar to the like of Sonic The Hedgehog and Super Mario Bros. Jump around from ledge to ledge avoiding enemies, we all know the score. So why is is, that I found myself playing this game far more often than other leading titles?

Firstly the character you play is just pure coolnes. A red spot with arms and legs and cool guy shade. Can it get any better? The levels are very nicely designed and the backrounds are colourful and pleasing. The music is jaunty and upbeat adding to the feel of the game. When you play it, you just have fun.

Nowadays you can probably find Cool Spot mostly on Ebay or in bargain bins at gameretailers. As it wasn't known as a classic, you can pick it up very cheaply and trust me, it's worth it.

Summary: An outstanding game for it's time and still fun to play in this day even with the next gen consoles.
