Very hilarious of me to not close this log back when I first tried it out thinking I would have the energy or desire to really put in multiple sessions into it. What can I say? I don’t play horror games and I did not grow up with adventure games, but I did think this was a wacky title to be a part of Nintendo Switch Online’s Game Boy player right on launch. Though, after playing it, I understand why they might want it alongside hits like Kirby and Mario Land. This game is one of those 2001 Game Boy Color games that really stretches the limits of what a handheld can do. Definitely really interesting to see how the resolution on this handheld is handled when adapting this type of game. While I think it doesn’t work at all at the end of the day, mainly because of how it handles combat (quick time events I think would’ve been better, lol), this definitely deserves to be a part of a little showcase of what the Game Boy Color tried to do.
