About The Jetsons: Cogswell's Caper

The Jetsons: Cogswell's Caper is a side scrolling action title set within the Hanna Barbera animated universe. The player controls George Jetson, who is assigned by his employer to disrupt the business operations of a competing company run by Cogswell.

Movement through the futuristic environments involves walking and crouching, with a jet pack providing vertical mobility instead of a standard jump. Interactive elements are central to progression, as numerous crates and objects can be lifted and thrown to combat adversaries. These containers sometimes conceal additional items or foes when moved.

Level navigation is further defined by wall mounted switches that temporarily alter the stage physics, such as inverting gravity. The objective requires traveling between locations in a jet to complete each distinct stage.
