Play Incredible Crash Dummies, The Online

I first played The Incredible Crash Dummies on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System back in 1993. It was developed by Gray Matter Inc., and it fit right in with the platform's library of action games based on toy lines and cartoons from that period. The game was part of that wave of licensed titles that tried to capture a fad.

You control one of the crash test dummies, navigating through side scrolling levels filled with obstacles and enemies. The main goal is to progress through each stage, rescuing your fellow dummies while avoiding hazards that can tear you apart. Your character can punch enemies and use a limited supply of exploding heads as projectiles. A key mechanic is your detachable limbs; you can lose your arms and legs from damage and still hobble forward to find a repair station. The game moves at a brisk pace and the difficulty comes from the constant environmental threats and precise jumps required. Playing it feels like a chaotic race against your own disassembly.
