Whomp 'Em
Whomp 'Em is the story of Soaring Eagle, a young Indian Brave who ventures into the world seeking totems for his magical pouch. Whomp 'Em consists of eight worlds. The first world acquaints you with the game. The next six worlds may be traveled in any order. The final world is a secret!
This may be one of the better games you probably have never heard of. Whomp 'Em is an action platformer that takes you through eight different worlds that can be challenged in any order. Similar to Mega Man, you will be able to defeat the boss of each world and then use their special powers for yourself. Your basic spear attack can skillfully overcome most encounters, but your acquired totems can make some challenges much more trivial.
The difficulty is much more relaxed than most games of this type on the NES. With great controls and (mostly) reasonable platforming, this makes an excellent beginner level platformer that can be enjoyed by players of all skill levels.
