Camp California is an ecologically minded game featuring a cast of cartoon animal characters. Platform levels challenge the player with various enemies to avoid or attack. Characters have different strengths and weaknesses and the player chooses which to use at the beginning of each level. The game embraces a theme of environmental responsibility, especially prevalent during the early-1990s time of release, and characters must also clean up pieces of trash as they make their way through the levels. Put litter in its place to clear the area. Along with these Earth-friendly motivations, brightly-colored outfits, lighthearted humor, and surf-style beach music help define the attitude of this release. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
