Game Overview

Remember The Wild Thornberrys? This Game Boy Color game nails the vibe—you’re Eliza, running around jungles and deserts with Darwin the chimp, rescuing animals and stumbling into weird little puzzles. It’s got that same goofy energy as the show, right down to Nigel’s over-the-top narration and Debbie rolling her eyes at everything.

Gameplay’s simple—mostly jumping over stuff and figuring out how to, say, lure a crocodile away with fish so you can cross a river—but there’s something weirdly satisfying about it. The mini-games are hit-or-miss (that log-balancing one still annoys me), but the pixel art’s charming, and hearing the tinny GBC version of the theme song hits right in the nostalgia.

Honestly, it’s not gonna blow your mind, but if you ever wanted to pretend you could talk to meerkats while waiting for the school bus, this’ll do the trick.
