The Land Before Time

"Littlefoot and his friends arrive on the GBA!"
~Introduction~
Hi there! You wanna buy this game? Well, I suggest before you do, a read of this review wouldn't hurt! So, as you might have guessed, Littlefoot's back, only on the GBA! For further information, it is advisable to read this review.
~Gameplay~
This game is pretty fun. Not too hard, but a bit frustrating at times. You may get stuck in some places, but there will be a way in the end. You just might not see it at first. The controls are good, and not too difficult, I shall say.
~Story~
So, Littlefoot and his friends get lost while playing one day. Everyone of them lands in a different place. Littlefoot has to find his friends, but after you ''unlock'' them, you can play as them. Travel through 5 entertaining stages and kill the evil enemies, and find the way back to the Great Valley!
~Audio, Video~
Ah yes... my favorite part of any Review... The graphics in this game are very good. You can see nearly every detail. The characters are pretty small on the screen, yet you can make out their eyes, spikes and toenails! The animations are done very well.
The music here fits to every stage. Although it is very simple, with only a few beats, the music makes you feel way back in those times... The characters all make noises, struggling to jump higher, suffering when hurt, and huffing and wheezing when running away. Even the Boss music is good!
~Replay Ability~
I dunno about that... I played and replayed this game many times now, and its still fun. Although I can say I know the stages off nearly by heart, I struggle with the bonus stages and some bosses. I should say this game has a pretty good replay Ability. Thing is, this game isn't that hard to beat. You'll probably need no longer than 1-2 weeks to finish it. If not shorter...
~To buy or to rent? That is the question...~
I think you'd better rent it, then see if you like it. If you do, I suggest go and buy it. If you don't... then don't go and buy it. Simple as that. But I'm sure you'll like it!
~Prologue~
Well, not exactly a prologue, but something of the sort. My main point: I hope I have encouraged you into buying or renting this game (whatever you want to do), and enjoying fun hours spent with Littlefoot and his friends! And that is the end of this Review...
Good-bye and have a nice day!
