Trash It is a puzzle-platform game developed by Rage Software and published by GT Interactive in July 1997.[1] [2] It was released in PAL-territories only for MS-DOS, PlayStation, and Sega Saturn.[3] [4]
Players play as construction worker Jack Hammer who is aiming to defeat Doctor Moonbeam in his bid to "turn the world into a sugar lump to put in his cup of tea".[5] Players use Jack's large hammer to destroy the buildings of Timmy World under a time limit, gaining Timmy Points by hoovering up the Timmies released from destroyed structures to purchase weapon upgrades in the Hammer Shop.[6] The game includes Quest, Battle and Arcade modes, the latter of which supports up to four players.[7]
The game received a poor critical reception. Iain White of Saturn Power magazine gave a score of 51%, describing the title as "slow-moving, badly designed and utterly utterly tedious" and decrying its "blocky looking graphics". Sega Saturn Magazine
Reviewing the PlayStation release Play's Tom Sargent labelled Trash It as an "unusual puzzle-come-platform game" that "plays too sluggishly and becomes repetitive far too soon...a 16-bit game at a 32-bit price".
