The Adventures of Mighty Max is based on the TV cartoon Mighty Max , which in turn is based on a series of toys. Max, a kid with a magic cap, can travel across different worlds and save people who get into trouble in other dimensions. However, his arch-nemesis, the demonic Skull Master, has recently locked all the portals Max was using for inter-dimensional travel. The Skull Master has kept some of the portals for himself, keeping them stocked with some of his destructive weapons.
This is a platform game where you control Max or one of his two side-kicks (which doesn't affect gameplay). You'll travel through several different worlds to find and destroy the Skull Master's weapons, which are scattered around the level. The levels are timed, and there are plenty of enemies who will hinder your progress towards the goal.
