Play Junkers High (Beta) Online

Junkers High (Beta) is one of those weird, wonderful Genesis games that makes you ask, "How did this not get a proper release?" It's basically if someone took the school brawls from River City Ransom, cranked up the chaos to 11, and threw in exploding soccer balls for good measure.

You start off punching dudes in hallways, but within minutes you're grabbing chairs, baseball bats, and whatever else isn't nailed down to smash through waves of delinquents. The controls are a little stiff—this is a beta—but there's something hilarious about watching pixelated students go flying after a well-timed uppercut.

It's short, messy, and exactly the kind of rough-around-the-edges gem that makes digging through old ROMs worth it. If you've ever wanted to relive that '90s arcade brawler vibe with extra Japanese absurdity, this one's a riot.
