Description: Bud Thon box art for Rolo to the Rescue for the Sega Genesis. Published by Electronic Arts and developed by the same guys that made the James Pond games, Rolo to the Rescue is a fun platformer known for its hidden secrets and play design built around swapping between Rolo and his woodland pals to leverage their unique abilities. An overlay has a notation to remove the tail of one of the critters (it is written "Scitek tail out," a likely reference to the Scitex imaging workstations, which may have predated Photoshop). Curiously, while the tail was removed from the US release, it can still be seen on the Japanese, Korean, and Brazilian releases of the game; alternate art was used in European territories.
