Play Cool World Online
You play as Frank Harris, running through scribbly cartoon worlds, blasting living doodles with a weird little gun while Holli Would heckles you from the sidelines. The janky charm’s in the details—wobbly outlines, hidden exits that cost coins, and boss fights that feel like a sketchbook coming to life.
Cool World on Game Boy is one of those weird licensed games that somehow works. You play as Frank Harris, trying to stop Holli Would (yep, that’s her name) from crossing over into the real world. The graphics actually nail that messy cartoon-meets-reality vibe from the movie—everything’s got these wobbly outlines like a sketchbook come to life.
Mostly you’re running and jumping through four themed worlds, blasting doodles (they’re like living scribbles) with this weird little gun. The coins are everywhere, which is good because you’ll need them—some levels have these sneaky hidden exits that cost a handful to unlock. The last level in each world has this frantic boss fight where Holli taunts you the whole time. It’s janky in that classic Game Boy way, but weirdly charming if you’re into the movie’s vibe.
