About this game

James Pond II: Codename: RoboCod is a 1991 action platform game set across worlds inspired by toys, including sporting goods, candy, and aircraft.

Levels scroll primarily sideways with limited vertical movement. James Pond must collect two penguins and reach an exit, with multiple exits and secret areas often available to explore. After every pair of worlds, each containing three sub-levels, a boss encounter follows.

The game was developed by Tiertex and VectorDean, and published by Millennium Interactive Ltd. and U.S. Gold for Sega Game Gear, Sega Genesis, and Sega Master System/Mark III.
