The title character is a cute and loveable squirrel who journeys through his woodland domain taking care of all all the fruits, vegetables, and nuts that have "gone bad" (audience groans). No, I mean it - that's the plot in a nutshell! (whizzzzzzz...thwak) Owww! That hurt!

A pretty decent Ghosts 'n' Goblins clone. Nice graphics and adequate sound are offset by less-than-challenging level design and a stupid premise. Even so, the platform fans will find enough to keep them busy. The only thing missing from the Genesis version is the zoom-in scaling at the stage stars on the SNES, but that was unnecessary to begin with.
