Kiteretsu Daihyakka: Bouken Ooedo Juraki is an action-adventure game where players control the robot assistant Kolosuke on a horizontal-scrolling adventure. The story begins when the robot of the ancestor Kiteretsu-sai accidentally activates a time-traveling device called Raijikuuki, sending dinosaur energy to the Edo period and causing dinosaurs to vanish. Kolosuke joins Kiteretsu, Miyo-chan, Tongari, and Butagorilla to reach their ancestor in Edo Japan and prevent chaos. Gameplay features simple side-scrolling action with stages involving bamboo forests, clouds, islands, pirate ships, and dinosaur fights, using a 'crouch to block' mechanic. Characters include the loyal robot Kolosuke, the inventive boy Kiteretsu, his friend Miyo-chan, the helpful Tongari, and the cheerful Butagorilla. It stands out as a straightforward yet faithful adaptation of the Kiteretsu Daihyakka anime with basic platforming and combat.
