Dexter's Laboratory : Deesaster Strikes! Overview
Dexter's Laboratory: Deesaster Strikes! is an isometric platformer set within Dexter's own lab. The core situation involves managing the fallout from a malfunctioning device called the Clone-a-Matic, which has unleashed a swarm of miniature clones of his sister, Dee-Dee.
Player activity focuses on navigating the laboratory environment to round up these clones for reabsorption into the machine. This primary objective is complicated by the need to also fix various forms of damage scattered throughout the setting. Additionally, the environment itself presents hazards, and formerly benign robots have turned hostile.
The initial premise stems from Dexter's attempt to use the Clone-a-Matic to duplicate himself, a plan that backfired when the device, noted for its flashing lights and lack of security, was activated to produce the troublesome Dee-Dee copies instead.
