The holy grail of lost Mega Drive media has been discovered and was even playable at Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2024. A build of 1995’s Garfield: Caught in the Act – The Lost Levels has finally been unearthed after 29 years.
Garfield: The Lost Levels was a SEGA Channel exclusive version of Garfield: Caught in the Act that features 2 exclusive stages called Bonehead the Barbarian and Slobbin’ Hood. It is further enhanced with the Alien Landscape stage which was only made available via the SEGA PC release of Garfield: Caught in the Act that released in 1996.
An attendee at Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2024 called PZTunleaded has recorded 43 minutes of off-screen footage of the recently discovered build of Garfield: The Lost Levels and shared it on their YouTube channel. You can watch this footage via the embed below:
While PZTunleaded is not the owner of the build, the video description does mention that the general public will be able to play this build “sooner or later” which suggests the owner is going to release the ROM dump soon.
