I think it's ambitious that there exists a survival game on the GBC and for that makes it quite a unique game for the platform. Ignoring that though, I think Survival Kids is an ok experience if you're looking for simple and cute survival game. Visually, it looks good and its comparable to Link's Awakening. A thing I do respect this game for is its replay value because it features 8 endings. I didn't get all the endings mainly because I wasn't really interested in playing more of the game. This is probably due to the fact that I'm not intrigued by GB games like I used to be when I was a kid. Still, the gameplay in itself is like ok or kinda whatever. You manage your hunger, thirst, and sleep meters. So, you can progress more throughout the day(s). I do somewhat dig that every step you take matters in accordance with your meters as they drain as you take each step. I think it's neat. Although, I think the game can be a little annoying at times. Mainly when combining items because you combine stuff together and get some useless item in return. The pop-ups for getting reminded of your meters can be a little annoying too, but I understand why it prompts to happen. At the end of the day, I believe Survival Kids is an alright time if you're looking for something ambitious on the GBC. It's not a bad game by any means, but it's certainly a neat novelty for what it is.
