McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure is an action platformer game for younger audiences developed by Treasure for the Genesis in 1993. Despite being a McDonald's tie-in game, it's professionally made and quite fun, just really easy.

- The art, music, and play control are professionally made. Very unusual for a tie-in game.
Bad
- The game is actually fairly challenging, they just give you too many hit points and too many lives.

Ugly

Box Art
The original Japanese box art. It fits the cartoon nature of the game quite well, but doesn't give you an idea of what the game will be like.
