Editorial Review

Survival Kids is an unconventional puzzle game thathooked us from the moment we powered it up. You control a young survivorwho has been stranded on a deserted island after the sinking of a cruiseship. Armed only with your wits and a pocketknife, your challenge is tofind a way off the island.

Along the way you'll find several more items that will help you progressthrough the game's devious puzzles. Fortunately, items can be combinedto create complex objects that can be used in solving these challenges.In addition to the puzzles, your character must also keep a healthysupply of food and fresh water. You'll also want to stay rested if youaim to survive. Since this title plays on the Game Boy Color, it is nosurprise that the graphics are adequate without being too fancy. Thesound effects are also decent, but not overwhelmingly impressive.--T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

• Unique puzzles
• Decent graphics

Cons:

• May be too easy for the true puzzle fanatic, but it's still a lot offun

Very nice.
My daughter really enjoyed this game. It kept her entertained for hours on end. We sold it, but she wants it back, again! Which proves that it may be played many times, before one is through with it.

Survival Kids
This is my favorite game out of all of the others I own. You play as either a boy or girl who gets stranded on a deserted island. You start off with only a pocket knife and you need to find food, water, shelter, etc in order to survive. With some objects you can create others, for example you can create a fishing pole to catch food. Anyway I love this game, I can play it for hours. I highly recommened, but it's a shame that they don't make it anymore.

Confessions of an Obsessed Game-Owner
P>This is simply a classic-- you are stranded on a desert island and you must fight animals and collect an amalgam of foods (such as fruits and fish) and supplies (a kindling and working matches) to stay alive. In this game time passes, and the weather changes as well. This is important in the game; for example you can't light a fire and cook your food when it's raining. This game is not easy to beat-- there are eight possible endings and rumors of a "bonus game" when you uncover all eight.

This game is phenomenal. It's both fun and educational--good for most ages (10 and up). Kids will love it because of the concept and the challenge. You must monitor your fatigue, hunger, thirst, and health levels and replenish them when they get to an unsafe level. Parents will love it because it's very educational. It may teach you how to survive should you actually get stuck on a desert island.

Overall, this game is simply one of the best I've played in my short yet consequential life. It's a shame that this game isn't made anymore. You'll simply have to buy a used one! ... Read more

TOMB RAIDER IS AWESOME!!!
This game is awesome. I was hooked on it for months!! The graphics are weak but its still cool! Go buy it now!

Best Tomb Raider Gameboy game
Considering that I am a HUGE fan of Tomb Raider, I had to buy this game. Boy was I happy I did. The graphics are great, the levels are long and fun, and Lara looks really cool in this game, (Exactly like in the first game.)

5 Stars for all Categories. (Including sound, graphics, fun factor, etc.)

The Best

Excellent game
I found this game to be almost as enjoyable as the first Tomb Raider game for Gameboy Colour. The action was plentiful, and there were some interesting puzzles to work through in the process of getting through the game.
I have only given it three stars though for two particular reasons.
Firstly, I found it irritating that little prompts kept popping up throughout the game whenever Lara approached an item or a doorway. Perhaps others have found this helpful - I expect it would be to anyone for whom this was their first experience with a Tomb Raider game.
Secondly, and most major: I encountered a major glitch during the sequence when Lara was on the speeding train. Once the train started moving, and Lara begins making her way to the front, you will come across a save diamond. I used this the first time I played the game, and when I had to restart the game due to crashing and burning (I think I actually decapitated Lara that time round), I discovered the graphics were all warped. I don't mean that they were illegible. The graphics appear normal - until Lara starts running across empty spaces, and falls through holes where there doesn't appear to be any holes. You jump her across what you think is the gap between carriages, only to have her fall through an apparently non-existent hole and die.
No matter what I did I could not fix the problem, and I could not reach the front of the train to complete the sequence. Ultimately I had to start over from the beginning again.
I don't know if anyone else has encountered this problem, but to play it safe, use the last available save diamond before talking to the old man and getting on the train. Do not use the diamond that is on the train itself.
That aside, there is a wonderful assortment of scenery in the game. It starts off in a museum, which Lara must escape from in order to pursue the thieves.
From there, after 'defeating' a mini boss on the rooftops of New York, she must negotiate an underground maze of rail tunnels, and then make her way through two hazardous warehouses on the wharf, find her way into an underwater lab filled with zombies and collect and charge all the batteries she needs to operate a mini-sub, which she must negotiate through a dangerous maze underwater. (Hint, save as many of your health packs as you can for this part - you're going to need them)
From this last section, you will jump to the last scenes of the game, set on a distant island.
Some may feel that the final boss is something of a let down compared to the rest of the game, but it all depends on your point of view. It was extraordinarily easy to defeat the boss, but the real fun was in getting to that final battle, not in the battle itself.

Tomb Raider
This is one of my favorite games. You start out trying to get from room to room, looking for your gun. There's limited places to go without your gun, because you are not able to get buy the police. This game is perfect with the difficulty levels-they are not to hard and not to easy. I highly recommend this game.

Good game!
There should be more games like this, what would be great is if they improved the graphics and made it for GBA. I actually got this when I got my GBA. It is really fun, and not too hard to figure out. This is especially recommended to any Tomb Raider fans. Plus, I got this for a pretty good price.
Pros:
1) Pretty good price (used anyway)
2) Lots of puzzles, not to easy nor to hard to figure out
3) People with GBC still can play it
4) Fairly good graphics
Cons:
1) Some controls are difficult
2) Only one slot for one saved game
3) Some people may get bored early in the game ... Read more

Editorial Review

In Lady Sia, you are the brave warrior princess of the title. Your mission is to save your kingdom from the T'soas, powerful beastmen led by an evil ruler named Onimen. Play begins with Lady Sia trapped in a deep, dark dungeon. To help her escape, you'll have to journey through a maze of dungeons, and, along the way, battle the tigermen, pelicanmen, and waspmen. But these aren't the only foes out to stop you; you must also be on the lookout for the weaselwomen and the chameleonmen. To win the day, Lady Sia must move fast, jump well, and wield her sword with plenty of skill.

To defeat the evil Onimen and the T'soas once and for all, you'll also have to overcome 21 monsters and play through 20 levels and a variety of realms. As you progress, you'll gain weapons and power-ups to uncover secret areas. ... Read more

Slip n' slide and a hidden twist
Lady Sia is a good game, but a little fustration comes into play. In case you haven't noticed, when you stop, Lady Sia slips a little bit, so be on your toes.As for glitches, the game is full of 'em.Try running into the back of the dungeon in the castle stage.A wall will cover you up.It isn't good 4 anything and most wouldn
't call it a "glitch", but it's a nice feature.Also, being a girl gamer, I favor the fact that the main character is a GIRL for once!
Try this on for size.if you do a combo move something like B R R, you get an awsome move!The slice one will go straight through pesky sheilded T'soas.Some are snorsville, still, like the simple punch combo.My favorite combo move is where you do a colorful flip in the air.I can't beat the air girl or the fire guy, though.(in the second stage)Yet,alas, you can only do this after you get your jade sword, though.get the sword before the ring! It helps! To get the sword, go sneak past the sleeping T'soas, go down the well, go to the lower passage, hit the down arrow to proceed past the spikes, get to the water, wait for somthing to float your way,ride it,ride the fountain up, and use the long row of sheilded T'soas as combo practice. have fun!!!:-)

Oooh, Cool Game!
Lady Sia is a really nice game. The graphics are very cute, designed after Japanese anime. The controls are quite simple, and the in-game walkthrough is quite helpful. However, you can really get bombarded by enemies and magic spells and have to redo the level 100,000x to defeat them, ladders are a bit tricky to find, you get pressured to get a PERFECT score and I've encountered a glitch at the T'soa airport. Overall, Lady Sia is a pretty fun game for ages 8-12. I reccommend it.

A 'pixelicious' girl(...)!
Great game play, excellent graphics, not bad at all considering its 2D.In fact the 2D form seems to fit it better than a 3D form.Controls are perfect for slicing and dicing along with the jumping and climbing that our protagonist, Sia, must do.The story is deeper than most other games; however has the usual theme of 'beat up the bad guys'.The anime inspired graphics well portray the worlds and Sia that can leave a player amazed and in awe.2D is still as good as 3D and Lady Sia proves it, no hands down!In all honesty, a perfect game for any diehard side scroller fan or for any well balanced gamer. ...

The Greatest Gameboy Game Ever!
This is by far the greatest thing to happen to Gameboy owners. Both of my siblings are equally addicted to the game as I am, and we have completely different opinions in video games. And parents, don't worry. This game is totally child-safe.

I just LOVE this game! I haven't stopped playing since I got it. It's addictive, and very fun.

Your Sim can get a roommate, buy whatever you want to buy, and do whatever! It's the perfect game for RPG lovers, and a great game for any video game liker. Even if you hate video games, you've got a pretty good chance of liking this one. Buy it, buy it now. Stop trying to figure out what you want to spend your money, or gift certificate, or whatever on. BUY THIS GAME!

Leave the nonmagical world of the Muggles behind to play as Harry Potter in the Game Boy Color release of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Experience the wizardry, adventure, and thrills of life at Hogwarts.

You can also trade and collect famous wizard cards to unlock rewards and increase Harry's skills. You can trade cards with a friend using a Game Link cable.

Difficult Fun By Maggie
I got this game for my 11th b-day. Though it is fun and challenging, it is very very difficult. It has wonderful graphics and sound but if anyone younger than me plays this game it may seem impossible! Ps- I've been stuck on the same level for a few months!!!!!!

No Save Feature
Would be a great game, if only it had a save feature.
I purchased it cuz I'm really into a mini-game phase, where I just wanna play little time wasters at random. This package has the games, but you have to fight to get to them. If you're in the mood to play breakout with the turtles then you have to spend 30 min earning your way to that point every time. By then you may be tired of playing anyway.

Anywho.. individual games are good (some for adults, some mostly just for younger kids), but the lack of a save feature is very frustrating.

Awsomely Fun!

ok
OK, this game is kinda good and I like it a bit.
The graphics are not so good and the bean challenges are sorta hard. The Basililsk is so dumb it like shoots little green thingies out of its mouth at you and you never get the sword. If I were to remake this game I would have you fight basililsk with sword, have you be able to fly the car, have more spells, make gringotts a little easier, and change the invisibility cloak(you find it in the hallway and it makes you invisible for a little while then goes back to where you found it-but is an advantage, its very hrd to sneak by Snape otherwise).

This is not worth your money, unless you are a Harry Potter total mainaic.

A bit disappointing and short
Reviewer:Adriel
This game is fair,but disappointing.This is probably a game for a plane ride.Too short.And why in the world you have to kill the snake using spells and not a sword,a major flaw.

Graphics:4/5 a bit impressing
Audio:3/5 when using spells,why do they sound like spacecrafts?
Gameplay:3/5
replayability:2/5
fustration:1/5

Buy this and [...]

I really enjoyed this game
I received a GBA from my brother, & because I'm a fan of Harry Potter this was the 1st game I bought.I really enjoyed playing it, & found that I couldn't stop playing it!

I was impressed by the graphics, & the sound was pretty good (The last handheld I had was the original clunky Gameboy) so this was a suprise to see how it's changed graphically.

The story wasn't the best (Nothing like the Gamecube version), but I liked performing the tasks, & it was in a way almost relaxing to play this game.It definately made long drives less long.

Although I must admit I suck at Quidditch...Oh well, we can't all be a Viktor Krum... ... Read more

With more than 20 levels of Monstropolis to explore and bonus minigames and puzzles to play, you'll be too busy challenging your skills to be scared of a few furry monsters. And, if you're in a pinch, don't forget to use Sulley's impressive roar and the Laugh Launcher to surprise your enemies! ... Read more

Very short, but not linear either.
My first time through it was only 3-and-a-half hours later! But to add depth, you search through a maze of rooms to find 3 missing pieces to the door. Enemies aren't smart and are quite stupid. Bosses are slow and easy to beat. I recommend something else.

This game has no instructions in box,this is a new game factory sealed. Very unhappy with purchase.I had trust in toy's r us.
This game would have been better with the instructions that come in all new games.

Hamtaro: Ham Hams Unite!
Average Customer Review:
Game Cartridge (31 October, 2002)

US | Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France

Editorial Review

Who would have thought a new Game Boy Color game, based on an anime series, could be this original and fun for all ages? Hamtaro: Ham-Hams Unite! is a surprisingly good game. You play as Hamtaro, a cute hamster. Your mission is simple: Bring 12 of your Ham-Ham (or hamster) friends back to the Ham-Ham clubhouse, where Boss--the head hamster--has a surprise for everyone.

But how do you convince your Ham-Ham friends to come back with you to the clubhouse? With Ham-Chat, the secret hamster language around which the whole game revolves. Each new Ham-Chat word lets you perform new actions. You can say hi to other hamsters, apologize to them, or compliment them. You can also learn special words that allow you to perform special actions, such as digging holes, doing summersaults, or climbing. But the best part of Ham-Chat is that each word is associated with a move, so when you go to the clubhouse's dance room, you can link your Ham-Chat words together and Ham-Jam. With a link cable, you can trade your dance with friends.

You can buy 30 different outfits for Hamtaro and try stuff on back at the clubhouse. You can take a photo that can be displayed in the room and on the title screen, and as you play the game, new places within Hamtaro's neighborhood become accessible. All of this makes a great game that children will love, especially those who are fans of the show. Some adults may find it too cute to resist, too. --Bryan Karsh

Pros:

• Some of the best Game Boy Color graphics you're likely to see
• Make your own dances
• Take pictures of Hamtaro
• Explore Hamtaro's neighborhood

Cons:

• You can't transfer dances to Game Boy Advance

Motocross
This is a pretty fun game. There are many riders to choose from along with bikes. You can choose different race tracks and do short races, championships, and freestyle. The freestyle takes a little while to figure out how to do the moves. I would recommend this game if your a motocross fan.

Get it!!!!!
This is the best motocross game ever to hit GBC! It features 125cc or 250cc racing, with 15 riders to choose from in each catagory. For freestyle it has 8 tricks that u can see clearly what it is, and features about 12 freestyle riders.

Or u can compete in the THQ race, which is inside an arena, with lights turned on, and it will measure your jumps for pro or the THQ races, but you have to be in Amature or Pro to get your jump measured. And you can change the diffuculty and the # of laps (3-9 laps). It shows it from the back with 3D graphics!

Your mission is to construct a communicator so that E.T. can phone home. And just like Elliott and his friends in the movie, you'll have your work cut out for you. In this release for Game Boy Color, you must search 60 environments for all the components needed to build the transmitter. All the while, you have to evade capture by government agents and avoid the clever traps they've set for you.

You can alternate playing as the strategic-minded Elliott or as E.T., whose extraordinary powers, including levitation, can help you out of the many tricky situations you'll confront. This single-player game features three levels of difficulty and three modes of gameplay: exploration, quest, and encounter. Six large maps with 10 environments in each extend playability, as do 45 challenging miniquests that unlock hidden items you can trade later. ... Read more

Rather fun.....
This game was fun on the first level, the City. However, on Level 2, the Forest, it became rather bad. The animals that are in various levels after the City are unavoidable! If you get near an animal it kills you! It should not be bought( I've had the thing over a year and still ain't beat it). ... Read more

Pokemon Pinball

Editorial Review

For those a little poky about catching onto the Pokémon craze, thisgame is a great way for the uninitiated to get their feet wet. Also, pinball fanatics shouldnot dismiss this as a kid's game, because it's a solid pinball game, regardless of thePokémon brand.

Two Pokémon-themed tables, Red and Blue, are here for players to bounce thePokéball around in hopes of catching up to 150 Pokémon monsters. Themonsters are collected by hitting targets on the pinball tables, and once collected, themonsters can be perused in the popular Pokédex format. Owners of the GameBoy printer can print their prize collections and mount their characters on the wall, if theyso desire. Unfortunately, the monsters collected in Pokémon Pinballcannot be traded with other Pokémon monsters from the Red, Blue, or Yellowgames, making this game a stand-alone product. A unique aspect of the game is that it hasa built-in rumble pack, which vibrates and shakes the Game Boy system as thePokéball bounces around the screen. --Jeff Young

Pros:

• A great way for non-Pokéheads to get into the action
• A respectable pinball game
• High replayability

Cons:

• Can't trade Pokémon with ones from the Pokémon Red, Blue, orYellow games

3.5 stars - a good pinball game
The video games in the Pokemon franchise are very hit or miss. For every Pokemon Gold or Pokemon Silver, there's a Pokemon Snap or Hey You Pikachu to bring the series back down. In 1999, Nintendo decided to try their hand at something a little different with the Pokemon characters - a pinball game. Is this one of the hits in the series, or one of the misses? Read on for my review.

PROS:
-Perhaps the greatest thing about this game is that you don't have to be a Pokemon fan to enjoy it.
-The game contains a good deal more depth than your average pinball game.
-There is an element of Pokemon capturing, which makes this a very interesting game.
-There are two different tables, one of which has monsters not found on the other and vice versa
-There are a number of bonus events as well.

CONS:
-Let's face the facts, no pinball game can hold your attention forever.
-The rumble feature doesn't contribute anything to the game.
-There are only TWO tables - more would have been nice.
-Since this is a Pokemon game, many hardcore gamers may be reluctant to try it.

OVERALL:
Overall this is a good pinball game, and one of the hits in the Pokemon series. If you've got a Game Boy, this here is a game worth checking out. It's nothing revolutionary, but it's sure to kill some time for you.

Pokemon Pinball
Okay, I am not a pokemon fan at all, but I have to say that I love this game. You can choose from two different tables, red or blue. This game can become very addicting. If you are a pinball fan and not a pokemon fan, you can still enjoy this game. I highly recommened it.

It [DISAPPOINTED]!!
When I bought it it worked for like 10 mins. I couldnt even figer out how to work it. It came with BAD instructions. It even takes batteries. DONT GET IT!!!! ... Read more

Stuart Little: The Journey Home

Editorial Review

In Stuart Little: The Journey Home, kids play as Stuart Little, the clever, ever-cheerful mouse from the popular Stuart Little movie and classic children's book of the same name. In the game, Stuart's just joined the Little family, and there's plenty of action to master, such as sliding down the laundry chute as a shortcut or using the flip-top bin to get more altitude. The Littles also join you in your play, as does Snowbell, the family cat who just can't warm up to even the most lovable of mice.

This side-scrolling game abounds with action that uses many of the movie's favorite locations. The Journey Home's eight levels of gameplay take Stuart through the thrilling model boat race, a topsy-turvy miniature golf course, a toy cowboy town, and New York's Central Park.

Every level is filled with power-ups and items that let you boost your energy and gain points. Three play settings make this a game that kids with varying skill levels can enjoy. ... Read more

Stuart Little
If you liked the movie, you'll probably like this. There are only 8 levels in this game. You'll need to go around collecting stuff to get to the next level. For ex: laundry for the first level; boat race, car race, escape through the sewers, etc. I only gave it three stars because this game is to easy, I beat the game the third time I played it.

Very Hard!
This game is freakin' hard. I mean I'm nine years old and I can't even beat the first level!! Don't buy this game!! ... Read more

Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Heartbreak

Editorial Review

Hamtaro and friends are back in an even cuddlier adventure than before, this time for the GBA. Hamtaro Ham-Ham Heartbreak is a ridiculously cute, deceptively simple-looking adventure game. But don’t be fooled--just like its predecessor, Ham-Ham Heartbreak is a very challenging and fun game with surprising depth. Kids will love it, and adults will get a kick out of some of the subtle jokes.

The story is simple, but epic: Hamtaro and his friend Bijou must save love itself. An evil hamster named Spat is causing squabbles between hamsters, and it’s up to Hamtaro and Bijou to mend broken relationships and find out why Spat is causing so much trouble.

The key to Ham-Ham Heartbreak is the effective use of Ham-Chat (the secret hamster language).Each Ham-Chat word represents an action. For example "stickie" enables you to whack a bush with a stick, and "putput" allows you to put something on something else. You’ll need to learn certain words to solve different challenges in the game.

Gameplay is very similar to Ham-Hams Unite!, but the graphics and sound are definitely better. The game looks just like the cartoon show. There are now 24 Ham-Hams to meet instead of 12, and the world is bigger. Strangely, the Clubhouse is smaller.

Just like in the first game, there are all kinds of activities. You can buy different outfits and take up to 8 pictures. You can go to the dance room in the Clubhouse and compose a Ham-Jam, where you connect your Ham-Ham words into a dance (you can trade this dance with other people via a GBA link cable). A new feature to Ham-Ham Heartbreak is that you can collect rocks and get them polished. Who knows what secrets are inside the rocks you’ll find?

Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Heartbreak is a cute game that is truly appropriate for all ages. Just don’t let your boss catch you playing it.--Bryan Karsh

Pros:

• Beautiful graphics
• Challenging but not impossible puzzles
• Cute as all get out
• Funny for all ages

Cons:

• Smaller Clubhouse

Really Great!!!
This game is really fun but challenging I've played it at least 4 times and had to look at a walk through every time! You'll see all the hams you know from the show and even different hamsters. You save Bijou in the beginning by driving a boat but how to get it working you'll see buy the game as you and Bijou save love for all ham hams in 6 fun challenging levels

tinglie! koochi-q! i Smoochie it!
I got this game for christmas from my parents and i've played it ever since. i is kinda
hard to beat but easy at the same time. i've bet it three times now but it is fun all the same. I needed cheats every once in a while. it is one of my three favorite GBA games; harvest moon: friends of mineral town, hamtaro: ham-ham games, and last but not least, Hamtaro: ham-ham heart break.
thank-Q!Bye-Q!

I LOVE IT!
I love this game so much! Hamtaro is my favorite show! It was fun playing it for a really long time and the game lasts awhile, but then I beat it and there is nothing left to do on it. That's why I don't play it anymore. But it was fun while it lasted! ... Read more

Good Choice for Harry Potter fan.
I was really excited when I got this game. I love the books and don't mind playing games either. I'm not a game freak who plays constantly, just on trips and stuff. This game is really fun, it catches the Quidditch spirit in everyone. In this game you can be any of the seven players. There isn't much difference between the keeper and chasers they all just fly around and you can't tell them apart. This game is really nice and a good choice for any Harry Potter fan who has dreamed of being out there playing with the quaffle or chasing down the snitch. This game is really easy to catch on to. At low levels it is really easy. You can dominate even if you've only played a little bit. However, the firebolt level keeps even the master in check. If I were you, I would get this game.

Not a bad game, but they could have done better
i think that this is by far the best of the potter games, altho i haven't tried out the new prisoner of azkaban game. i do have to say that i love the books, and i am a very causual gamer. I play this game loads, and i really do enjoy it. in contradiction with one of the reviews i just read, i find it terribly easy to score over 150 pts in a game before the snitch chase, and the world cup games get harder as you go on. overall i think it's brilliant.

What are you all talking about?
I've been reading reviews for this game, and I had thought I had a guarenteed great game in my hand after i bought it. I guess I thought wrong. I am about 14 years old and have read the potter books and like them alot. THis game is very disapointing. SOme of you might be familiar with the scoring system in quidditch: 10 pts. for each time the quaffle (main playing ball) goes through one of the goal-like hoops, and 150 pts. for when the seeker catches that darn golden snitch. Now, I say they either change the rules of quidditch, or make a sequal to the game. I dont think they can go back and change all those books. To me, all this game is is flying around tossing the quaffle back and forth, until the time comes to try and catch the snitch before the other team does. The game works it out so that when there are enough steals, special moves and passes during a game, it automatically goes right to the catching of the snitch. I feel the quaffle part of this game is completly pointless because the way the game makes it, whoever catches the snitch wins. It almost never get to you scoring 150 points with the quaffle before the hunt for the snitch is on, so why even have the quaffle play in it. Basically, this game just comes down to the 1 minute hunt for the snitch at the end.

If you are a collector of harry potter memorabilia, Go ahead and get the game. Other than that, spend your money on a good game like Metroid Zero Mission or Super dodge ball advance ... Read more

This game is okay, but I lose interest very easy. If you like board games, then you'll probably like this. I can only play checkers, so that's why I'm not to thrilled with it.

Duke portable
Its not terribel just nothing special. Its graphics are bad but everything moves smoothly and unlike alot of gb games you can save your game. You just walk, find keys and shoot aliens. they guys bleed, just not alot. Sometimes they break in halk or there arms come off. Over all its good if you need dn portable.

oh dear
I like my gameboy.I like duke nukem on the pc.

Duke Nukem for Gameboy is awful!

Obviously I wasnt expecting fancy 3D graphics and speech, but this game is the most basic of platform games.

There is nothing original at all here, and it is simply a case of extending a good brand one stage too far.

A pity, but there you go...

Beast Game Boy Game Ever!

A Good One
This is a colorful game with interesting characters.It requires a lot of thought and exploring, with a small strategy requirement.The levels are big and full of friendly villagers, multiple enemies, and you will occasionally see characters such as the horse, Devon and Cornwall, and Merlin the magician appears in almost every level to help you prepare to battle bosses.A lot of time is required to get through the game, considering most problem-solvers aren't easily uncovered.Certain bosses require certain strategies that take a few losses to finally figure out, such as the giant plant.

I still haven't beat the game, and there's one part in particular that I got to where I COULD NOT figure out what to do.But I'm re-trying the game because I have way too many games that I've never beaten.The story is a little different from the movie, but if it was exactly the same, their wouldn't be so many fun activities.I recommend it to Quest for Camelot lovers, and those who like harder games.

Awesome!!
This is my favorite Gameboy game of all time.The fighting is minimized and the puzzles are maximized.Perfect game for me.
Love it!!
