Play Normy's Beach Babe-O-Rama (USA, Europe) Online

Normy's Beach Babe-O-Rama came out for the Sega Genesis in 1994, developed by Realtime Associates. It was one of those oddball platformers that showed up late in the console's life, a time when developers were willing to try stranger concepts just to stand out. The game doesn't take itself seriously at all, and that's part of its charm.

You play as Normy, a surfer dude who has to rescue women from different time periods. The main goal is straightforward: navigate through themed stages like ancient Egypt or pirate coves, avoid enemies like mummies and knights, and reach the end of each level. You jump across platforms, use a limited supply of magic sunscreen to defeat foes, and collect items to extend your time or health. The pacing is brisk, and some sections can be surprisingly tricky with instant death pits and aggressive enemies. It feels like a silly, chaotic dash through history with a very '90s attitude.
