🕹️ New release: Lunar Lander Beyond

Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure

aka: Cosmo: Kid From Space, The Adventures of Zonk
Moby ID: 910

DOS version

A good replacement for console platformers

The Good
One big advantage console systems had over PCs were their platform games. Cosmo didn't have the same silky action as Mario, but the colorful graphics and diverse levels made up for it. It also adds in nice twists, like being able to stick to walls and drop bombs.

The Bad
The animation was a little stiff. The sound effects were reasonable for something coming out of a PC speaker, but still not so hot.

The Bottom Line
If you've got a PC but no NES, Cosmo makes a good substitute for Mario.
