Cheetahmen III

Platform
A relic of the NES era, this platformer is infamous for its punishing difficulty and bizarre premise. Players control the Cheetahmen, anthropomorphic cheetahs, through a series of levels filled with enemies and environmental hazards. Despite its technical limitations, the game's cult following stems from its sheer ridiculousness, the challenge, and the fact that it was never officially released until decades after its creation.
