Released in 1991 for the Sega Genesis, ToeJam & Earl is one of the most original and eccentric games of the 16-bit era. You play as ToeJam (a three-legged red alien) and his buddy Earl (a big chill orange dude), two funky aliens from Planet Funkotron whose ship crash-landed on Earth. Your mission? Rebuild your ship by finding all the missing parts... scattered across randomly generated levels of a very weird Earth. The game plays like a roguelike with a top-down exploration style, wrapped in offbeat humor, slapstick surprises, and a heavy dose of funky 90s energy. It was one of the earliest console games to feature: Randomly generated levels Dynamic co-op gameplay Presents with unpredictable effects Hidden paths, elevators, and traps Bizarre Earthlings like crazy dentists, chickens with mortars, and opera singers Whether solo or co-op, it’s a chaotic mix of exploration and comedy. The funky soundtrack and chill vibes made it a cult classic, and its weirdness still hits decades later. This video features the looping title screen and a slice of groovy gameplay from the original Genesis release.
