Popful Mail is a Sega CD Game released back in 1995. It was published by Working Designs, the same people behind Lunar Silver Star and Lunar Eternal Blue. Despite being one of the earlier games with Voice Acting, the dubbing is actually pretty good.
So what kind of game is this? It's a Platformer with RPG Elements. You know, move left and right, attack enemies, buy better equipment, and so on. You get 3 Characters to play as. The Main Character is Mail, a spunky Elf-Girl who wants to capture the villainous Magician Muttonhead and claim the bounty on his head. The other two characters, her companions, are Tatt, Muttonhead's kind-hearted apprentice, and Gaw, a little Dragon-like creature whose only aim is to please Mail.
The game is very funny, and has several pop culture references, which make it even funnier most of the time. Mail's short fuse and temper also add to the humor, with her going as far as calling someone retarded at one point:
For the record though, said character is pretty stupid, causing trouble most of the time.
The game's animated Cut-Scenes are also nice and easy on the eyes:

Overall, this game is very fun, but also difficult most of the time. Would I recommend it to anyone? Hell yes I would. Go play this game, even if you have to use an Emulator to do it.
