#5. Ballistic

Ballistic
  • Release Data: Mitchell/Infogrames, 1999
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Ballistic is a nicely-designed puzzle game on the GBC system, but in terms of interface it kind of lacks the flair.

The music is bad, but you can turn that off, and it doesn’t take that much away from the overall feel of the game.

Bust-A-Move is better in design, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make room for Ballistic.

#4. Spy vs Spy

Spy vs Spy
  • Release Data: Kemco, 1999
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

The gameplay is still as addictive as ever, although playing against a computer is nowhere near as much fun as taking on a real live human challenger.

Spy Vs. Spy is a fast-paced, comedic strategy title especially suited for the more vindictive of players.

#3. Toki Tori

Toki Tori
  • Release Data: Two Tribes/Capcom, 2001
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Toki Tori may seem like some cutesy platformer by the almost artificially sweet happy face on the front of the box, but the game is brutal and challenging, especially in the deeper levels.

And what’s more, it retains that “let me try that again” element, even when the levels get frustratingly hard.

#2. Tetris DX

Tetris DX
  • Release Data: Nintendo, 1998
  • Genre: Puzzle » Stacking

This game was released in 1998 and would be essentially a re-release of the original Game Boy game, Tetris. This is also a launch title for the Game Boy Color.

Overall, it was interesting to see how old games moved to full color on the GBC. This game does set the stage nicely for what could be accomplished on this system.

#1. Pokemon Puzzle Challenge

Pokemon Puzzle Challenge
  • Release Data: Intelligent Systems/Nintendo, 2000
  • Genre: Puzzle » Matching

The overall design is an amazingly addictive and maniacal puzzle game, and it gives the fingers a serious workout when you fall into the zone.

The game is not as universally addictive as Tetris is, but it’s really close.

Overall, this game is just Tetris Attack combined with Pokemon and in portable mode.

Hi, I'm R, and I've been playing video games since I was a kid. My first console was the original PlayStation (the gray one) and I spent countless hours playing Crash Bandicoot series and Spyro series. My second console was the PS2 Fat, and I completed all of the GTA series 100%.
