I'm a little late with this review...sorry about that guys...Anyway, here's my review of a little GBA game called:

Wario Land 4

In this game, you play as Mario's arch-rival, Wario. The game doesn't really offer very much story background, but to sum it all up, some mysterious ruins appear outside of a large city, and I can only guess that Wario goes there to plunder it of it's riches, but what lies inside these ruins?...

Plot/Storyline...7/10
This game has really no plot to it, due to the little amount of back-story it actually gives you in the beginning. This game doesn't actually require any kind of story though, but even so, one little explanation of WTF is going on would help.

Graphics...8/10
Although very well pixelated, this game's graphics look a little...grubby. Not to say they aren't good, but some of the pixels look a little messy. Then again, that could just be me, but at the heart of it all the graphics are well done, although they may look messy at times. Here's a few snapshots:

Gameplay...8.5/10
The gameplay in this game is both fun and addicting. The puzzle solving in this game is very interesting and fun to figure out. It isn't so much about fighting enemies, but platforming and solving puzzles, which is admirable in my eyes. The game has many levels and should keep you playing for a while.

Overall...23.5/30
With addicting puzzles, fun platforming, creative level design, and a slight bit of wackiness, Wario Land 4 is an enjoyable game you can pick up if you want a challenge, but won't frustrate you to the point of suicide. An enjoyable Game Boy game, you can't go wrong with this one. I hope you enjoyed my review.
