Item Description

Not many Super Nintendo heroes fight a pirate empire with a stolen sword and a mouthful of bubblegum. Sküljagger: Revolt of the Westicans casts you as Storm Jaxon, a rebel on the island nation of Westica, which was free until Captain Lucius Khan Sküljagger and his Kiltish army conquered it and enslaved its people. When the invaders cancel Mask Day, the one day the Westicans could still feel free, the island revolts, and Storm strikes the first blow by stealing Sküljagger's own magical sword.

In play it is a brisk side-scrolling platformer against the clock. Storm runs, jumps and swings the sword, and he has to reach the end of each level before time runs out. Touching an enemy or projectile is usually fatal, so the jewels scattered through each stage are your lifeline: red ones give the sword a projectile attack and absorb one hit, green ones also shield you and add up to extra lives once you collect 25, and blue ones buy more time. A mask grants a short burst of invincibility, and the chests, boxes, rocks and coconuts that hide power-ups can be picked up and hurled at enemies.

The bubblegum is the signature twist. Chewing it lets Storm float through the air and jump higher than normal, opening up routes a plain jump could never reach, and the game even includes a Bubblegum Practice mode so you can learn its tricks with no enemies or bottomless pits in the way. A two-player option lets friends alternate turns.

Developed by Realtime Associates and published by American Softworks in October 1992, it was released only in North America, and critics were split: reviewers admired its backgrounds and imaginative presentation while finding the character animation lacking. That oddball energy is exactly the draw today. Sküljagger is a slice of early Super Nintendo experimentation, a pirate fable with candy-powered platforming that you will not find anywhere else in the library.

About the game

Sküljagger: Revolt of the Westicans is a sidescrolling platform game. Players select between a 1 player game, an alternating turn 2 player game or Bubblegum Practice. The player controls Storm Jaxon who is able to run left and right, jump and swing Sküljagger's magic sword. Storm must reach the end of each level before time runs out or risk losing a life. Under normal circumstances, touching an enemy or projectile will cause him to die, though the sword is often able to destroy projectiles. By collecting red jewels, Storm is able to both augment the sword with a projectile attack and be protected from one enemy attack. Green jewels will also protect from one enemy attack, however collecting 25 of them will grant an extra life. Blue jewels add additional time for Storm to complete each level. Finding a mask will make Storm invulnerable for a short time. These power-ups are either floating in the air of each level or hidden away in chests, boxes, rocks and coconuts. However these items which may hide items can also be picked up and thrown at enemies.
