I finally played this game. The only other one I've played is 1/2 Genie Hero.
It's probably the best-looking game on the GBC. The graphics are pretty impressive for the system. The music is good and the characters have a lot of charm. A great start for Shantae.
The dungeons are easily the best part of the game. Figuring out the puzzles and unlocking the next area (while getting collectibles) until you reach the boss.
While the world exploration is fine. There are a lot of instant death traps that backtrack you (without loosing anything you've collected). The main issue I had (besides all the instant death traps) is that you spawn with only 3 hearts even if you've collected them all.
Seeing as I had a good time playing this and loved 1/2 Genie Hero I now have more motivation to play the rest of the series.
