Cat Alexander's World Of Fairly Odd Tales

Cat Alexander's World Of Fairly Odd Tales is a 1993 game by ProtoGame Entertainment, part of the Cat Alexander Franchise, it was made canon through several references in Cat Alexander 3D: Art Island, such as Wendy Wolfe herself being an antagonist trying to avenge her uncle and mentions of Mother Goose.

Plot
Mother Goose (the villain of this game) has kidnapped Hansel and Gretel, and zapped the 3 playable characters into various fairy tales, they must stop Mother Goose in time to rescue Hansel and Gretel and go back to the real world.

Gameplay
The Game has the same gameplay with the previous 3 games, but the "Super Attack" mechanic has been improved, you now have 3 super attacks but you can only choose one, you can change in-between stages and when you run out of lives and continue, it now also introduces Asami (as Pippi Longstocking) as a playable character

Alexander's Super Attacks

 * Super Attack A/Super Claw (2 short Bars) - Alex scratches very fast and causes a great amount of damage, similar to Wolverine's Berzerker Barrage, Alexander stays airborne when he does it mid-air until the super attack finishes
 * Super Attack B/Power Yarn (2 medium bars) - Alex literally throws a giant yarn ball which defeats enemies which comes into the ball's way, but bosses only take a fraction of their health bar away
 * Super Attack C/Super KAT (1 long bar) - Alex becomes a buff cat and deals way more damage than normal, the super bar turns into a timer, when it runs out, Alex will be back to normal

Benjie's Super Attacks

 * Super Attack A/Shaking Howl (1 Long bar) - Benjie howls so hard to the point everything shakes, converting all enemies on-screen as items, this will only drain boss's health by 1/5 of the entire bar if this is used when a boss is on-screen
 * Super Attack B/T-Bone Steak (3 short bars) - Ben throws a steak whichs stuns the enemies for distraction, doesn't work on bosses

 * Story - 87% (Awesome)
 * Gameplay - 75% (Great)
 * Music - 69% (Neat)
 * Replay Value - 81% (Awesome)
 * Total: 78% (Great)
 * His final remarks: A Great sequel and end to the 2D arcade Quadrilogy, it may not be as good as the previous two games but it's Nice, you might give it an even higher score if you are into Japanese platformers and fairy tales and lower if you are more of a western lover and want something modern or so, it's strongest point is it's four modes that increases the replay value
