Gex for the PlayStation 1 is a colorful side-scrolling platformer starring a wisecracking gecko with a love for television and pop culture references. Players guide Gex through themed worlds inspired by different TV genres, using tail attacks, wall-climbing abilities, and careful jumps to defeat enemies, collect remotes, and escape the Media Dimension.
