Play Hook (Japan) on gb Online
Swing through Neverland as Peter Pan, dodging pirates and bouncing on giant mushrooms—those Game Boy controls are way smoother than they have any right to be. That clock tower level still haunts me.
Hook for the Game Boy came out in 1992 from Sofel, a time when licensed games were everywhere and often felt rushed. This one, based on the Robin Williams movie, was a side scrolling action platformer that tried to capture the magic of Peter Pan's adventure, with mixed but earnest results.
You control Peter Pan through a series of levels, fighting pirates and navigating environmental hazards. The main goal is to rescue the kidnapped children from Captain Hook's clutches. Your primary tools are a sword for close combat and the ability to fly for short bursts, which is essential for reaching higher platforms and avoiding enemies. The game is structured screen by screen, with some light exploration to find keys or hidden items. It can be unforgiving; enemy placement is tricky, and the flying mechanic demands precision. Playing it feels like a constant, scrappy battle against the level design itself.
