Player's Review
Overview courtesy of GiantBomb:
'The player assumes the role of Richard (played by Macaulay Culkin in the movie), who must make his way through three worlds each consisting several levels and each based on a different literary genre. (Horror, Adventure and Fantasy.) Along with several collectibles completionists can also find a library card in each level. The player will lose whatever magical item they are holding if they are hit; this acts as a bonus hit, similar to the rings in Sonic the Hedgehog.'
SNES version played here. There is a Genesis version which is pretty identical in terms of level structure.
In the longplay I play through all levels in each world, some of them are accessible via alternate paths, and also pick up all library cards and try to show off every bonus section. Which are mandatory for the 'best' ending possible, reason for the quotes is because you get the 'you did not get all library cards' line instead in case you skip the cards sub-quest. At the end of the video I attached a hidden level in the Horror world that was originally missing in the longplay.
