You also have many unique attack and defense styles at your disposal, the best of which is the ability to leap up and attach yourself to the walls with suction-cup feet, therefore adding a little element of strategy to the game. Gex moves (or rather, slithers) very smoothly, and the enemies are all imaginative - you will be attacked by all kinds of movie stand-ins, ranging from sumo wrestlers to zombies, all of whom are easily taken out with a whip of your fearless lizard's tail. The game does share similar charms to Earthworm Jim, Crystal Dynamics' most popular game. Your job: fight your way through five zany worlds with themes based on various old B-movies. In Gex, you play a cocky 20th century gecko with an attitude who has been sucked into his television by Rez, an evil creature whose idea of torture is subjecting innocent reptiles to reruns of sordid TV shows. Probably Crystal Dynamics' least successful release, Gex is a decent platformer that tries too hard to emulate Earthworm Jim in playability and humor.
