You’re told to get a certain percentage of cool points, and then to find the exit.
The game itself controls and plays a lot like Cool Spot. It’s kind of a weird change of pace to have Spot going from fighting crabs and mice to Xenomorphs, though. Each world is supposedly a different genre of movie, so you’ll go from Pirate World, to Adventure World, and so on. Once you beat all four worlds, you’ll go to one final stage, set in what is absolutely not the ship from Alien, no sir. The game itself is divided into four worlds, each one with three or four levels each. Since the game has no real story scenes of any sort, we’re left to wonder. It’s not clear is if he’s trapped inside the movies in a Comix Zone situation, or if he’s filming a movie. Spot somehow ends up in a bunch of different movie genres, and now he has to fight his way out. There’s still not much of a plot, although there’s still more of one than what Cool Spot gave us. The game also refers to itself as “Cool Spot 3” in the credits, so what was the original? The board game, or the Game Boy game? Maybe the developers were trying to break Spot out on his own? Maybe they didn’t want to bother removing the 7-Up graphics from the PAL version again? It’s a mystery that will probably never be answered. Given how much of an appearance it made in Cool Spot, this is kind of unusual. What’s odd about this particular title is that the only mention of 7-Up is on the copyright screen, where it never appears again. Apparently there was enough demand for a sequel to Cool Spot that a sequel would end up being made.
