When I played Kid Chameleon on one of the Genesis collections, it was better than what I thought it would be. Just a fun little hop and bop platformer. Nothing special and it ain't no Mario World, but not bad either.
There's a New Machine at the Arcade - Kid Chameleon

The idea behind the Sega Genesis game Kid Chameleon is that a kid (with sunglasses) gets sucked into a video game world where he dons masks that give him various powers to defeat the game. You can be a samurai, a knight, and even an axe-wielding maniac (among other things). It's actually quite clever sometimes, but is also far from the best game available on the Genesis.
I didn't have it as a kid, but my friend did, and I would go over to his house to play it. I always found it fascinating, but eventually I would get tired playing it - it wasn't very exciting. Still, I always thought that it was very cool, and I would try it again later.
I believe it's available on a lot of Genesis compilations, but I don't know if it's on the mini-Genesis that just came out.
