Originally a 3DO game, Microsoft had Kinesoft Development port Gex to Windows. Gex is a gecko who can run, jump, cling to walls and ceilings, attack or break barriers with his tail, and eat things. Power-ups can be tail-whipped to recover one hit point, or eaten to acquire its property (such as bonus lives). It's a pretty standard platform game, with the novelty that Gex, voiced by comedian Dane Gould, delivers over 300 one-liners during gameplay. His goal in every level is to find a television remote control. Five worlds and one hidden world are broken into levels, each with a hidden bonus area. There are 6 worlds in this game, with only the first level playable in the trial version.
