Mega Mash is like the seven best NES games you never played. Not merely content to wallow in retro-style 16-bit fun, Mega Mash builds its clever ideas into some unique gameplay. The idea is that your 7-in-1 game cartridge has broken, allowing the games to spill over into one another. One minute, you’ll be hopping along as a carrot-munching bunny in a Super Mario Brothers clone. The next minute you’re piloting a space ship in a side-scrolling shooter. And Mega Mash doesn’t simply switch up genres willy-nilly. Effects, weapons and environmental hazards spill from one game over into the next. You’ve got to figure out how to use that to your advantage. This one’s as much a puzzle game as it is … well, every other genre mashed into one.
