Basic Plot

Billy refuses to eat his vegetables one night. When he goes to sleep he finds himself in a strange vegetable kingdom. He must defeat the evil Boobus Tuber who has captured many other sleeping children in their dreams.


Gameplay

Unlike the original series, Keen does not have the use of his ray gun or pogo stick. Instead he uses seeds to turn enemies into flowers. Other than that the engine and gameplay are similar to the previous games in the series; a 2D platform scroller.

  2. Not for me. This wasn't one of those life changing experiences, I just want to document its existence so I remember. The problem was, I played this when I was in my 20's and 10 years after anyone else did. I missed the boat. I guess that, in itself, is my memorable moment.
