"Taz is Game"

INTRO
Good old Taz hits your hand held game. The cartoon Tasmania was good, when it aired. I have no idea what happened to this show, haven't seen it in a very long time. I must confess I loved this show it was very funny, with all of Taz 's goofy sidekicks, including Ty the Tasmanian tiger. He later on went and made his own video game, which was a success. So Taz and Tasmania have done good for themselves and others.

GAME PLAY
This game is not complicated, but can be hard and tricky. You have a huge world map to explore, and no time limit, which is very good. There are nine levels all unique and fun to play in. The only bad thing is the object is the same in every level. But the different atmosphere in each level makes it fun. Like I said before nine levels, which are all huge, you need to spend time wondering around to find everything. The object is to collect five coins in every level, which you need to complete five different tasks to do so to move on. I am not going to mention much about the tasks so I won't spoil the game for anyone. This game does have a password option, and a lot of passwords. For example after you collect a coin, you get a password, and there are about 45 coins. I'll let you do the math.

For a hand held game, this game is long. Make sure to write down each password, cause in some levels you can die easily if your not careful, or even worse, your game freezes up on you for some strange reason. That's the worse thing that can happen to any gamer. The controls are easy to use, the pad moves Taz around, A button spins, and the other throw things at your enemies when you have an object or objects in your possession to throw.

APPEARANCE
This game is just as good as any other game boy color graphics. They may look kind of cartoon-ish; then again, this is based on a cartoon character. They did a good job with well-detailed character and environment appearance. Every level shows its unique graphics, which makes this game very enjoyable. The music and sound is good or maybe average for a hand held game.

OVERALL
Our loony tune friends put out a nice game this time; then again, most of them are pretty good. The bottom line is this a cute game, one you can play for a while, then get tired of it, but it down, then come back later after weeks and play it again. It is unique then your average game. Cause it's a loony tunes game, it attracts more kids then adults. But I think adults will find this a challenging game, if they don't mind putting up with a cartoon-ish style game.
