Genre: Action

















Release Date RRP Code

Dashin' Desperadoes is a 1993 platforming/racing game developed by Data East and released exclusively in North America for the Sega Genesis. The ROM's header indicates that had the game been released in Japan it may have been called Rumble Kids there, but there has yet to be any proof that plans for such a release existed.

Gameplay

The first player is Will, a cowboy who has to race another cowboy, Rick, through a variety of obstacle-filled platforming levels to get to the girl of their dreams, Jenny, as she will only choose one. A while running charges forward. B jumps, and holding B hops. C throws a weapon you pick up in each level, by default a bomb. After every few levels, Will will kidnap Jenny, leaving the player(s) to chase him down and rescue Jenny.
