Pinobee: Wings of Adventure

"If you bought this game, you just got robbed"

This game is horrible. It suffers from too many problems to even be considered a game. The general concept is of a Bee who lost his grandfather. Look at it as Pinochio but instead of boys, bees. The story is pretty superficial, and you never get into it. It might as well be about milk. Let's go look at just a fraction of the disaster known as Pinobee:

Graphics: 9
This is the only decent thing in the game. The backdrops are pretty nice. They contain lots of color and animation, pity that it was used for such a horrible game.

Sound: 2
The music is ok, the first time you hear it. It is the most annoying thing in the world and you will find yourself turning the volume down in your first 5 min. of play.

Gameplay: 1
The controls are pretty responsive. So why did I only give it a 1? Because you only use 1 button during the entire game! The scheme is that the same button used to jump is pressed lots of times so you can stay in the air. It's really bad. The people who made this game were obviously ex-sega employees because the look and feel is similar to Sonic. They could of at least included a button to interact with enemies, do another attack other than dash, or anything else!

Lifetime : 1
I wish that I could give negative scores because if I could, this game would defenelly get one. This game can last you a total of 1 hour to beat. No that's not a missprint, it will only take you 1 hour to beat, and complete it. They included the ability to trade things with friends, but I found no use for it because 1) You won't find anyone else who bought the game, and 2) You can find all the cards in about 15 min.

Overall this game is horrible and should only be bought by people who have already bought every single Game Boy Advance game and wish to complete their collection. Other than that, you pretty much get the point. If you did get robbed, and thought that it might be cool because of the box, my only advise to you is to go to a near-by Funcoland or something and trade it in for a half-decent game. Remember to always look for ''The World is Cubed'' reviews before you buy a game. I keep it real. I tell you the good, the bad and the ugly. That's it for now. Thank you.
