If ever there was a Megadrive game that deserves more recognition than it gets, it is Wiz 'n' Liz. This blistering platformer sees the player saving wabbits after a spell spirits them away from their natural habitat. They do this with the help of a wizard named Wiz and witch named Liz.

Granted, it doesn't sound like the most thrilling game in the world at first, but that description simply doesn't do justice to how massively addictive this game is.

There's nothing complicated going on - unless you count the interesting spell system - and it is mainly just balls to the wall speed as you try and collect all of the wabbits in each level. The pressure really mounts as the timer counts down and you're frantically searching for that one last wabbit to open up the exit.
