Oh man, Tick: The On Sega is one of those weirdly charming beat-em-ups from the Genesis era. You play as the big blue idiot superhero from the cartoon, punching your way through waves of goons in that classic side-scrolling style. The animation’s actually pretty smooth for its time—watching the Tick flail his arms around never gets old.

It’s got that mid-90s licensed game energy: not groundbreaking, but there’s something fun about how faithfully it captures the show’s dumb humor. You’ll fight weirdos like Chairface Chippendale (yes, a villain with a chair for a head) while the soundtrack blares those crunchy Genesis synth beats. The controls are simple—jump, punch, maybe a special move if you mash buttons right—but it’s the kind of game you throw on when you just want to turn your brain off and wreck some fools.

Definitely a nostalgia trip if you grew up with the cartoon, but even if you didn’t, it’s a solid time-killer for fans of old-school brawlers.
