Garfield - Caught in the Act — About this game
Garfield: Caught in the Act for Game Gear sends the cat through scenes inspired by late-night movies. Move across platforms, slide objects into place and collect the ammunition used by the current scene. The attack button changes with distance: Garfield throws ammo at faraway threats and claws enemies nearby. Food restores his life, while Pooky marks a restart point. Progress needs more than reaching the boss. Find the battery in each sub-level so the remote will work, defeat the boss and take the remote to move on. The default layout uses 1 for jumping and 2 for attacks, but the Options screen can reassign them. Learn the chosen layout before committing to a jump beside an enemy.
