You'd punch in those weird letter combos and suddenly Sonic could phase through walls or your health bar never moved—half the time it worked, half the time the game just broke in hilarious ways. That little code book felt like unlocking secret chaos mode for every Genesis cart.

Game Overview

Man, the Game Genie was basically the ultimate power move for any SEGA Genesis owner. You'd be stuck on some ridiculous Sonic level for the hundredth time, then pop in one of those weird letter codes—boom, infinite lives, or maybe Sonic suddenly moonwalks through walls. Half the time, the codes did exactly what they promised, and the other half, they'd just break the game in the weirdest, most entertaining ways.

That little booklet it came with? Basically a sacred text. You'd flip through it like, "Do I want invincibility today, or do I wanna see what happens if I make Golden Axe characters tiny?" It wasn’t just about cheating—it was about turning your games into these bizarre sandboxes where anything could happen. Still kinda miss that feeling of typing in random codes just to see what glitched out.

Pure 90s magic, honestly.
