There are two main varieties of level, outdoors and indoors.
All levels throw hordes of goons at Jack that respawn endlessly.
He can defeat them by punching and kicking or simply evade them by jumping over them and continuing on his way.
In outdoors levels, more enemies will usually be part of the background, like cops shooting their guns or homeless persons in trash cans throwing grenades.
The indoors levels take place over several floors that Slater can move between by going through doorways.
He also must sometimes punch in a door to continue.
Most levels include several boss fights against major and minor enemies.
The levels are all based on the film and include Slater's confrontation with the Ripper, Slater's home, and the film premiere.
There is even a stage based on the film's dream sequence starring Slater as Hamlet ("Hey Claudius, you killed my father.
Big mistake!"), complete with archers and knights as enemies.
Small scenes between levels tell the story, some of which feature digitized images from the film.
About Sega Game Gear
Sega's Game Gear (1990) was a technically capable handheld competitor to the Game Boy, notable for its full-color backlit screen — a real advantage at the time, offset by famously poor battery life. Its commercial underperformance against Nintendo's handheld means smaller print runs overall, and complete, well-preserved cartridges (the plastic shells are prone to yellowing and cracking) are a genuine niche within retro handheld collecting.
Gamevaro tracks Last Action Hero for Sega Game Gear with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Last Action Hero to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GG release dates back to 1992.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
