Yet another platform adaptation of a popular Japanese children's cartoon, this one revolves around the misadventures of a cute blue cat who must rescue his owner and companions from the clutches of an evil space alien. A huge success in Japan, the series spawned a number of computer games, but this is the only one known to exist for the Genesis.

The show is juvenile and so is the game, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, this is probably the ultimate Super Mario clone for the Genesis! The game design and gameplay are so similar that you'll soon begin to wonder if the same programming house designed both games. Bravo! A job well done.

The title given above is a rough translation from the Japanese - Doraemon Yume Dorabouto 7 Nin no Gozansu. Most people simply refer to it as Doraemon.
