Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade is a unique action-adventure platformer developed for the NES. Players control Linus Spacehead, a small alien with a disproportionately large head, whose brain has been mysteriously stolen by an unknown antagonist. Linus's mission is to journey across various bizarre planets to retrieve his precious brain.
The game's premise is quite humorous and quirky, setting a lighthearted and entertaining tone throughout. Gameplay primarily revolves around movement and light puzzle-solving. Players guide Linus through side-scrolling levels, jumping over obstacles, and avoiding or dispatching enemies. Each planet features distinct themes and enemies, providing variety to the experience.
Linus can collect various power-ups and items, including different weapons or tools that help him overcome challenges. For example, he might pick up a laser gun to shoot enemies, or a parachute to slow his descent.
A key element of the game involves searching for brain fragments or other brain-related items that are crucial to progression. This often requires exploring hidden areas or solving simple environmental puzzles. The game doesn't heavily focus on combat but rather on exploration and obstacle negotiation. Levels are designed with numerous platforms, pits, and traps that require precise jumps and skillful maneuvering to navigate.
The graphics in Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade adopt a cartoonish, colorful, and sometimes whimsical style, fitting the game's humorous theme. The music and sound effects also contribute to the overall cheerful atmosphere. The challenge in the game comes from locating necessary items and navigating complex environments. Occasionally, players will need to find a key or activate a switch to open new paths.
The game features a scoring system and may sometimes require players to collect a certain number of items before proceeding to the next stage. Overall, Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade is a light and entertaining platformer, suitable for those looking for a humorous adventure that isn't overly challenging in terms of combat.
