Mafia member Don Garcia has kidnapped Melody, the daughter of the owner of the Rose Restaurant. Rocky Rodent agrees to rescue her in exchange for an all-you-can-eat meal. In order to find Melody, Rocky Rodent has to complete a number of fast-paced, side-scrolling platformer levels. While he can also defeat enemies by jumping on them, his most important weapons are four different hairstyles: His first hairstyle allows him to skewer and throw his enemies, destroy porous blocks as well as cling to and jump up certain ledges. A mohawk can be thrown at enemies like a boomerang or thrown into certain walls, from where it serves as a trampoline. Braids can be used as a grappling hook and a corkscrew-like haircut lets him bounce on his head to jump higher than normal. When Rocky is attacked by an enemy, he looses his current haircut. If he is attacked while not wearing any special haircut, he looses a live.

Additional Information

With its Sonic-influenced lead character and basic, jump-on-the-enemy action, Rocky Rodent is highly derivative. However, it does offer its own brand of uniqueness as Rocky sports a variety of lethally charged hairstyles in his arsenal, including the basic hairdo, the spike, braids, a mohawk, a spring, and a bird nest wig. Hair is not only used for thrashing an assortment of mobsters, rodents, and other obstacles in Rocky's path, but must also be wielded strategically to navigate otherwise unreachable areas. Further separating the game from the pack is a level that involves maneuvering atop speeding cars and trucks. The colors are a tad washed-out at times, but the game looks pretty decent otherwise. Musically, the game is akin to a good cartoon, and the sound effects are quirky and playful.

RODENT
MANIAC!
TM
There's a hot rodent on the road. Rocky.
He's quicker than a greased hairball.
Wound tighter than a hairpin turn. He's got
hair with an attitude. And the fastest can
of hairspray in the west, He's trouble in the
fast lane. Tricks in a can. Cars, trucks and
uncool dudes pull over—or end up looking
like a hairpiece with a bad case of the rats.
Rocky Rodent. He's good road—from Irem.
