Bubble Ghost Game by Infogrames Reviewed by Adrock adam@dmgice.com Size: 512 Kilobits Save: None Released: 1989 Works with: Any Game Boy **************************************************************************** Opening Snide Remarks: Bubble Ghost? HELL, YEAH! OK, what the hell is Bubble Ghost... **************************************************************************** Gameplay Descripion: Remember playing all those shareware games on your old 486 computer? You know, those ones that you couldn't BELIEVE people would actually send in money for? Remember when your PC Speaker was your only attempt at Surround Sound? Heh heh... Play this game and all those memories will return. You play as a cute little ghost. The object is to blow as hard as you can with the ghost. Get the small bubble from point A to point B by blowing. There are many obstacles. You have to blow out a candle before the bubble can pass over it. And so on. If it hits anything or gets caught in an obstacle you lose a life. There are tons of levels and stuff to go through. This game is way primitive and simple but for puzzle players it is pretty fun! So get it ONLY if it is way, way cheap. Liked: For what it is, it is fun. Hated: Not worth more than $2. **************************************************************************** Graphics Description: The graphics are primitive as well. But the main character, Bubble Ghost, is very cute and has lots of frames of animation. While Kirby sucks, Bubble Ghost blows. Together, they become... the Game Boy intern committee. Liked: Cute graphics. Hated: A little primitive. So primitive, the title is on top of the play screen. (?) **************************************************************************** Sound/Music Description: Once again, primitive. The Music and Sound FX are suitable for the game. Liked: Suitable Music and Sound FX. Hated: It may not be CD Quality, but it's better than your PC Speaker. **************************************************************************** Play Control/Game Design: Press A to blow! Liked: Controls are simple. Easy to pick up but hard to master. Hated: The bubble is sometimes hard to control and drifts off into an obstacle. **************************************************************************** Improve: C'mon, Infogrames, you got a good thing going here! This one would make a good GBC platformer! RIYL: Lolo, Kirby, Puzzle Games **************************************************************************** Final Words: This game is OK. It will be pretty hard to find. **************************************************************************** Score Gameplay: **** Graphics: *** Sound/Music: *** Play Control/Game Design: *** Personal Opinion: *** Total: 16 Final Score: %64 **************************************************************************** Currently Known Codes: Not that I know of!
