Graphics: 5.5 out of 10
Sound: 5 out of 10
Gameplay: 6 out of 10
Hardness factor: 4 out of 10
Overall: 6 out of 10
Graphics: The graphics are pretty good. The detail in everything but
the map is poor, but everything looks fun and original. Especially the
main character, he just looks really cool looking.
Sound: The music is pretty good, but it does get annoying since there
are so many levels in this game. Sound effects are very nice and cartoony,
like a lot of the game is.
Gameplay: A very fun puzzle game. In this game, you play as some kid with
a vacuum, and you must suck up all the enemies (they're supposed to be
ghosts, but some of them don't look like it) so you can go onto the next
level. Be forewarned because this game gets boring since it's so long.
Anyway, it takes a while to suck them up and you can shoot them back
out once you let go, but if you hold them too long you die anyway. In every
level you can pick up letters to go to a bonus game and win the level, but
there are also powerups in the levels and stores that help you. Some of
them make you invincible, move faster, suck better, and so on.
Hardness factor: This game really isn't that hard because there really
isn't a lot they could do with this game after a while. The only thing that
changes is that the enemies attack better, kind of like in Snow Bros. Jr.
Overall: 6 out of 10. Out of all the genres, puzzles are probably the best
for the Gameboy. Get this game; you'll enjoy it for a while.
