Is it still worth playing?

Sega's 1992 platformer for the Sega Genesis, in which Kid Chameleon tries to save his peers from the rogue artificial intelligence of a virtual reality video game. You progress through over 100 levels with an array of enemies and obstacles, and most levels have a flag that is the primary goal and the way to the next level. Teleporters can warp you to other places in the same level, to other levels and sometimes to an entirely alternate path. There is no password system or other method of saving. As Kid Chameleon moves through the levels he discovers masks that turn him into different characters, each with unique special abilities and a different number of hit points. Besides the attacks of each form, he can also defeat enemies by jumping on them. Each level is still a choice of who to be, with masks that turn the Kid into a different hero.
