Reviews: Chuck Rock (チャックロック) - review by Mean Machines Sega magazine

This conversion of the Master System game remains much the same. The twisted Gary Gritter has kidnapped Chuck Rock's fair wife, Ophelia. It's down to you, controlling Chuck, to run around various prehistoric platform environments, doling out rock-related justice to the many beasties in your search for Gritter. Aiding your cause is Chuck's enormous belly. This can be lashed at will towards any enemies, hopefully slapping them off this mortal coil! However, if you're more inclined towards more conventional methods, a decent flying kick is available! You'll need to master every one of these attacks, along with the use of rocks, especially against some of the enormous bosses Gritter has cunningly positioned at the end of each major level!

Comment: RICH

I really enjoyed the Megadrive and Master System versions of this game and find that this conversion remains just as playable as its big brothers! The graphics are smart with decent animation on the sprites and good backdrops. The sound consists of some cool tunes and decent effects. However, it's the gameplay that really matters, and Chuck Rock certainly delivers. As far as Game Gear platform action goes, you can't do much better than Chuck Rock.
