Play Beauty And The Beast - Roar Of The Beast Online

Beauty and the Beast: Roar of the Beast came out for the Sega Genesis in 1993, a year that saw a lot of platformers and Disney licenses on the system. It was developed by Software Creations and published by Sunsoft, placing it among the many movie tie-ins of that era. This was the second Beauty and the Beast game on the Genesis, but instead of playing as Belle, you control the Beast himself right from the start.

You guide the Beast through a series of side-scrolling levels set in and around his castle. Your main goal is to rescue Belle from a new antagonist, the evil wizard Morlock, who has kidnapped her. The gameplay involves running, jumping across platforms, and using your claws to fight off enemies like wolves and enchanted suits of armor. You explore the castle room by room, collecting roses to restore your health and finding special items that grant you temporary abilities, like a super jump or a powerful roar attack. The pacing is methodical, with some tricky platforming sections that require precise timing, and the difficulty can be unforgiving if you miss a jump. Navigating the Beast's heavy movement through the castle's many hazards feels like a constant, deliberate struggle against the environment.
