You play as a green muscle guy as you fight you way through mutant vegetables that have invaded the freezer. This is a beat'em up where you attacking mutant carrots, tomatoes, and other items in your refridgerator with your punches and kicks.
 
Good Bad
  • Interesting premise
  • Large character sprites
  • Terrible hit detection
  • Boring level design
  • No special moves
  • Need to duck and attack but that also moves you down the screen
  • No difficulty balance
  • Hits don't seem to register
  • Difficult to tell where you are in relation to enemies

2 One of the worst games on the Lynx as it feels unfinished. The controls are terrible, the enemies are unfair, and stages are just boring. The game plays like a tech demo and was clearly rushed to being released.
