Play Radical Rex (europe) Online

Radical Rex came out for the Sega Genesis in 1994, developed by Beam Software. It was part of that wave of early 90s platformers where every character had an attitude, and dinosaurs were especially popular. You control Rex, a skateboarding velociraptor on a mission to rescue his girlfriend from an evil shaman. The game is split across different time periods, each with its own visual theme and set of enemies to overcome.

You guide Rex through side scrolling levels, using a fire breath attack to defeat cavemen and other prehistoric creatures. His skateboard isn't just for show; you can hop on it to move faster and perform ollies to cross wider gaps. The main goal is to collect a certain number of musical notes in each stage before you can face the boss. The pacing is generally fast, though some sections require precise platforming that can be tricky. Navigating the lava filled caves and jumping between floating platforms feels responsive, even when the screen gets crowded with enemies. It is a straightforward action game that captures the energetic spirit of its era.
