Rod-Land is an arcade platformer game developed by Storm Software and published by Twilight and Sales Curve Ltd in 1991. The game features Tam and Rit, two characters who live in a fairy village. One day, they discover that their fellow inhabitants have turned nasty and captured their Mom, locking her in the top of the Maboots Tower. Luckily, Tam and Rit have inherited the powerful Rods of Sheesanomo and rainbow shoes from their Pop, which they can use to tackle the tower. The game consists of over 40 levels of cuddly-bashing action, where players must wop the nasties and collect flowers to progress. There are various weapons and power-ups to discover along the way, making the gameplay challenging and exciting.
