Description official description

Alex the Allegator 4 [sic] is a classic-style side scrolling jump'n'run complete with boss fights. The player has to help Alex rescue his girlfriend Lola before the evil humans make shoes out of her. Alex can jump on enemies to defeat them or step on certain activators which send Alex rolling across the level at high speed. This way, enemies can be knocked off the level, wide gaps crossed and special blocks crushed. The game automatically saves the progress and any completed level can be skipped.

Visualized in a resolution of 160x120 with only four green tones the game is reminiscent of old Game Boy games.
