Play Pagemaster, The on sega Online
You play as a kid turned cartoon, jumping between book genres—swordfight pirates, dodge flying tomes, then panic when Frankenstein shows up. The pixel art’s cozy, but those bouncing bookworms will haunt you.
Game Overview
Remember that weird but kinda cool '90s movie The Pagemaster? This Sega Genesis game is basically that—you play as Richard, the kid who gets sucked into a library and turned into a cartoon. One minute you're dodging flying books, the next you're swordfighting pirates or running from Frankenstein's monster. The levels switch genres fast, like flipping channels between Treasure Island and Dracula.
It's not the hardest platformer out there, but the pixel art has this warm storybook glow, and some enemies are hilarious (wait till you see the bouncing bookworms). I got stuck for ages on the horror level because those floating candlesticks kept knocking me into pits. Classic Genesis jank, but in a way that makes you laugh instead of ragequit.
Honestly, it's a solid weekend rental kind of game—short enough to finish but packed with little details for book nerds. Spotting all the literary references is half the fun.
