Play Cool World (dos) Online

Cool World is a licensed platform game released in 1992 for MS-DOS, developed by Twilight and published by Ocean Software Ltd. Based on the film of the same name, the game features cartoon-style visuals and is presented from a side view perspective. Players assume the role of Frank Harris, the chief of the Cool World police department.

The core objective is to maintain balance between the real world and the cartoonish Cool World. Players control Frank across four distinct worlds, each containing four levels. The primary goal in each stage is to prevent evil cartoon characters known as Doodles from stealing real-world items and transporting them to Cool World. Frank must also retrieve any items that have already been sent over. A danger meter tracks the imbalance between the two worlds, increasing if too many Doodles invade the real world or if too many items remain in Cool World. The player must successfully manage this balance for five minutes per level to progress.

Gameplay involves navigating the platform environments while using Frank's pen as a weapon to defeat Doodles, turning them into ink blots. Defeated enemies leave behind coins, which the player must collect. These coins are used as currency to pay for access to the game's various locations and levels. The overarching narrative task is to stop the character Holli Would from entering the real world, which is accomplished by progressing through the stages, combating Doodles, and gathering the necessary resources.
