Pokemon Puzzle Challenge

"This game is almost never came out of my game boy."

Once upon a time there was a dragon who liked to eat bad video games.He hated puzzle games,so he ate them all.Then,he started to play pokemon puzzle league.This dragon loved puzzle games.This was actually a very true story.I really used to hate puzzle games!

Yes,this is how it goes.Pokemon puzzle league is great,even for puzzle haters.In fact,this is the game that got me into puzzles.This game is kind of like pokemon puzzle league for the n64,but in my opinion,it is much better,Even though it has no pokemon cartoon animation.(I didn't really like the animation on puzzle league anyway)

The object in this game is to beat the gym leaders.There are plenty of levels,so it should keep you busy!There is also a puzzle mode where you clear the blocks in a certian number of turns,and the garbage mode in which you have to clear of all the ''garbage''

Story-4/10 Okay,so this game really has no story except that you want to beat the gym leaders,puzzles,etc. But does this game really need a story?

Game Play:10/10 this game is indeed very fun.The controls are indeed as smooth as its n64 counterpart.It always has 3 levels of difficulty,in which none of them is too easy or too hard.The game never really goes too slow that it is boring,or to fast that it is impossible(Exept in training mode)There are plenty of modes to keep you busy for quite a while.

Graphics:9/10 The graphics are almost like the pokemon tv show!The only reason it didn't get a 10 is that at times the graphics are a little plain.

Sound:10/10 The sound is very pleasing.In fact,it is modified versions of the music from the great gold and silver versions!It does get kind of dull after a while,but the music changes often!

Replay: 9/10 This game is fun the 10th time,seeing as you can play it differently.There is no true way to master the game or get everything ''perfect'',yet it is simple enough that even a 6 year old can learn how to play it.There is even a 2 player mode so you can link up and challenge your friends!

Buy or rent:Buy this game if you are a fan of puzzles or pokemon.Heck,even if you don''t like them it is a great game to try,but maybe you should rent it first.

Overall:9/10 Having no story really doesn't inspire you to play,but it is just a great game!I will never eat this game!Only bad video games provide protein,and ya wont miss them much(if at all!)
