Its features include stamps of Sonic the Hedgehog, ToeJam & Earl, and other Sega characters. It was followed by Sega's Wacky Worlds Creativity Studio in 1994.

Reception

edit

Entertainment Weekly gave the game a C+ and wrote that "More of a toy than a game, Sega's draw-and-paint program is pretty colorless compared with what you can accomplish on some mid-range personal computers, but it's still a welcome alternative to those burnt out on mindless shoot-'em-ups."[6]
