The *Rocket Power* section swaps the adventure format for four arcade challenges featuring Otto, Reggie, Sam, and Twister. In Hockey Shot, Otto must score goals with the puck before time runs out, utilizing rebounds to rack up points. Rocket Pogo tasks Sam with finding parts for his robot while dodging obstacles; Sandcastle Slam pits Reggie against Lars and Sheri in a projectile battle involving sandcastles; and Roller Rocketball turns Twister into a skater who collects balls and throws them into trash cans along the boardwalk. Coins, power-ups, time limits, and medals provide additional objectives, with the final mode unlocking only after enough coins have been collected in the others. (oldgamesdownload.com)%0A%0A
The minigame collection allows for solo play or head-to-head competition in supported modes: some challenges are turn-based, while Roller Rocketball supports simultaneous matches. Overall, the compilation offers two distinct ways to capture the spirit of the cartoons from that era: a sci-fi adventure centered on Jimmy's inventions and a series of short, lighthearted, and replayable competitions featuring the *Rocket Power* gang. It belongs to the lineup of Nickelodeon-licensed games that THQ brought to the PC in 2001. (oldgamesdownload.com)%0A%0A
