Overview
Description

In Daze Before Christmas you play as Santa, racing through a Christmas calendar of 24 distinct areas—from factories and workshops to caves—filled with bizarre enemies like penguins, jack‑in‑the‑boxes, helicopters, and snowmen. The holiday spirit is under threat as the Evil Snowman, the Timekeeper, Louse the Mouse, and Mr. Weather plot to ruin Christmas. Every five levels culminates in a boss showdown, forcing Santa to confront each villain and restore the festive plans stolen by the Timekeeper. The game blends platforming, action, fantasy, and comedy in a retro 1994 style, delivering a single‑player holiday quest that’s both challenging and humorous.

Super Bonk returns the caveman hero to his first Super Nintendo outing, adding a whimsical time‑travel twist. Players guide Bonk through prehistoric jungles, a dinosaur’s interior, a bustling Chinatown, and even the moon, using his signature head‑smash attacks and quirky power‑ups. The game expands on the classic side‑scrolling formula with new forms like a shooting crab and the massive "Big Kronk" dinosaur, size‑changing candies, propeller seeds for flight, and spring‑flower helmets, all while battling the mischievous King Drool in single‑player mode.
