Viz: The Game is an action game where players run through various scrolling environments based on a British comic magazine VIZ . The player controls one of the 3 Viz characters - Johnny Fartpants, Buster Gonad, or Biffa Bacon. The race takes place in five different scrolling environments; country, town, building site, beach and a disco.
The gameplay involves dodging traps and other characters from the VIZ comics while racing through the environments. There are also two mini-games for each character which include Pint Drinking, blowing up balloons with farts and Pancake Flattening.
