Gameplay [edit]
In the NES and Game Boy games, the player controls both Wayne and Garth in different levels; however, the Super NES version had only Wayne as a playable character. In the former, Garth's main attack is a laser gun and Wayne has a kick. In the Super NES version, Wayne uses his guitar as a weapon.
Reception [edit]
According to Flux magazine, Wayne's World was the 19th worst video game of all time.
Other games [edit]
An adventure game based on the film was released for personal computers by Capstone. Argonaut was also developing a version for the unreleased Super NES CD-ROM upgrade.[1] Nothing is known of the gameplay, just that Argonaut planned to include footage from the movie and "a lot of heavy metal music".
