  • Summary: Left unconscious by a massive cow-induced blow to the head and clad in his indestructible, high-tech super suit, Earthworm Jim continues the battle for truth, justice and well aerated soil. He sure is going to need your to guide him through his 3D fun-house of a brain. But beware, there is an evil lurking, a presence in his mind, a dark unseen force at work - Jim's brain is a dangerous place! Expand

    The impressively goofy/cool audio effects and tunes ring amazingly true to the original’s.
  2. Gamers looking for an off-the-wall platform adventure, and those that have the patience to put up with the lack of a save feature might find EWJ a good buy.

    It's difficult. Which isn't a problem in and of itself, it was difficult before, only now it's also unforgiving.
  4. Cramped levels and shaky control keep this worm from being a superstar.

    An utterly useless port of a great game, EWJ for the GBA is a trashy, lazily-crafted game that looks disastrous compared to its original incarnation. The framerate is reduced to about 1/5 of its speed, making Jim look like a rejected Mortal Kombat fighter, and the levels are extremely tedious, sometimes even impossible to beat. Buy the original classic for the SNES. You'll be much happier. Collapse
