Jim returns in this adventure with many of the things that made him popular in the earlier games. To do this, you have to collect his marbles - since he's lost them all! You must also collect "Golden Udders," usually found after completing mini-quests, that further your adventure.

Some mini-quests require surfing on pigs while others put you on the trail of missing underwear! Of course, the main goal of the quest is to bring our hero Earthworm Jim back to life. You must explore four main areas inside the brain of our deranged hero: Happiness, Fear, Fantasy and Memory.Įach area has a distinct look based on the state of mind it represents, as well as unique mini-quests and inhabitants. He must now fight through his own thoughts and emotions to wake from his coma. As luck would have it, Jim is struck by an incoming cow and rendered unconscious by the blow. The plot for this version's adventure pays respect homage to the goofiness that made the first games so successful. But even though the game followed the lead of its contemporaries and made the jump to 3D, this doesn't mean that everything is wine and roses. Characters, backgrounds, objects, and just about everything else has a true three-dimensional look and feel (as long as you have a suitable 3D-accelerator card). In this more contemporary installment of the game, Jim is rendered in full 3D. Armed with his blaster, outrageous moves, and a plethora of power-ups, he's sprung into action time and again.

Jim has traversed wacky planets throughout the galaxies to rid the universe of evil monsters and creatures that were causing havoc.

The title has appeared on the Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Game Boy and PC, following the continuing adventures of the magic spacesuit-wearing worm. We've seen many versions and variations of Earthworm Jim throughout the early 1990s.
