Bionic Commando Game

Ever wished you could swing through levels like a high-tech Tarzan? Bionic Commando on the Game Boy lets you do just that—with a bionic arm, no less! This action-packed side-scroller throws you into the boots of a super-soldier who can’t jump (yeah, weird, right?) but makes up for it with a grappling hook that turns every ledge, pipe, and enemy into a swingin’ good time. It’s a clever twist on classic platforming, mixing precision swings with intense shootouts, and it’s got that gritty, late-'80s charm that’ll hit you right in the nostalgia.

While the Game Boy version strips down some of the NES original’s complexity, it keeps the heart-pounding tension of timing your swings just right—mess up, and it’s a long drop to Game Over. The moody sci-fi vibe, tight controls, and that oh-so-satisfying grapple mechanic make it a hidden gem for retro fans. If you love your action games with a side of creative movement, this one’s a blast from the past worth revisiting.
