Marko

Overview

Pele, look out! Here's a kid with some soccer moves that you've never even dreamed of. In Marko, Domark's latest Genesis Adventure, the athletic hero needs some seriously fancy footwork to defeat the twisted Colonel Brown, an environmentally incorrect scientist who wants to turn the town to sludge. Bet Pele never chipped the ball at sewer rats, drove it into a suburbanite's mouth, or headed it to collect cans for recycling. With 13 enemy-filled levels, sharp graphics, and the world's most popular sport, this game scores big.

Look Ma. No Hands

Colonel Brown didn't count on an ordinary kid to foil his plans to rule the town of Sterlington. But when Marko stumbles onto Brown's sinister sludge factory— on his way to soccer practice, naturally — both guys get way more than they bargained for. Marko's plain old soccer ball flies into the sludge, and suddenly Brown is up against a formidable weapon that returns to Marko no matter where he kicks it. Brown's also up against an athlete who can chip, lob, and head this magic ball with devastating force and accuracy. Marko never thought he'd face off against more than 100 sludge-minded enemies, from sinister rats and birds to bomber planes and spud-gun-toting twins. And he's gotta shoot his way through the sewers, a circus, an industrial zone, and more. Can this World Cup hopeful save his hometown from the big slime? Put on your cleats and shoot for the home team with Marko.
