Razzmatazz
Razzmatazz is an action arcade game released by Sega in 1983. The player controls a character navigating screen-based stages, collecting items and avoiding or defeating enemies. The game features colorful visuals typical of early 1980s Sega arcade productions. Players use a joystick and buttons to move and interact with the environment across multiple stages that increase in difficulty. The objective involves scoring points by completing stage goals while managing threats from enemies. Razzmatazz follows a straightforward arcade structure where players aim to achieve high scores across repeating challenge cycles, with each loop presenting greater difficulty to test reaction speed and positioning skills.
