YMMV / 102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the Rescue

• Awesome Music: The score for the game is considered to be fun, highly varied, and quite catchy. Different ports provide their own variations, as well.
• Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: If you chase the pigeon towards the bird statue in the first level, you'll be rewarded with a silly pigeon dance. It lasts around 10 seconds.
• Demonic Spiders: Some of the toys that are harder to defeat can be really annoying to take out. From a slowly drifting Cruella blimp that rains bombs on you that has to be at just low enough to be in barking range, to a sinister bulldozer that must be defeated in two steps instead of one. Roll into it to flip it over, then bark at it to destroy it.
• Funny Moments:
  • Whenever you break a puppy out of its crate, they'll usually praise you for rescuing them. However, one puppy in the Big Ben and De Vil Manor levels will ask you where the bathroom is.
  • During the barnyard level, as your puppy drives the tractor, the lazy farmer Priscilla mentions earlier sees you and tells his wife. The wife thinks her husband is drinking and threatens to move back in with her mother, "and you don't wanna see that!"
• Genius Bonus: The Carnival's use of Camille Saint-Saëns music in both versions. In the PC and PS1 versions, it's a major key version of "Danse Macabre", accentuating the merriment to be had that Death provides to the skeletons in the original composition. In the Dreamcast version, it's the almost too fitting "Finale" from "The Carnival of the Animals." Even better, both compositions use a similar motif with the latter using "Fossils" as its link to the former.
• Nightmare Fuel: The fourth and final battle with Cruella is full of this: Not only with the music and the dark factory setting of the fight, but also with the fact that Cruella is using the Super Gloop cannon to fight, very quickly catching up to you and firing at you very quickly, so you need to be quickly. And to add more to the pressure, the zap cannons you need to use in order to fight will be immediately destroyed at the first shot if you don’t put up a shield, and even then, the shield drains energy so you will need to move quickly once the cannon falls apart. Have fun fighting this three phase boss fight!
• No Problem with Licensed Games: It's not exactly going to set the world on fire, but is otherwise considered a fun little 3D platformer in its own right.
• Spiritual Successor: Due to the more cartoonish plot compared to the films, Cruella not focused on skinning the puppies, and a number of elements from the first movie being present (as the game was originally meant to be based on the animated film), the game follows a similar tone to 101 Dalmatians: The Series, with even a few characters sharing similarities (either in personality, role in the story, or appearance) to characters from the series (such as Professor Farsboom for P.H. DeVil, Chester for Swamp Rat, and Pricilla for Dumpling).
