Lots and lots of new and exciting things to do here. Just a refreshing game.

Armchair Empire
It’s got some good-looking graphics, is easily accessible since it relies on convention, and enough challenge for young and old.

The gameplay made an attempt at doing something different, but only managed to make an already easy game even easier.

It is an original GBA title, not a port of another game from another time. That means that the developers have created an attractive game that takes advantage of the GBA's larger numbers of colors and faster architecture.

The necessity of replaying levels is grating, but Pinobee is charming and fun.

You'd be much better served picking up a port like Rayman or Mario, or something more original like Warioland.

B. S. gave it a 2:
Graphics are good, and so is the music, but even a beginner can say this is far too easy, and boring its the same thing each time and it gets real old real fast!
