Platform: Game Boy Color
ESRB Rating: E - Everyone

Action Man - Search for Base X is a fun and challenging game that develops strategic thought, concentration, alertness and quick eye-hand coordination.

Features:

  • Customize ACTION MAN for each mission with tons of gadgets, uniforms, and special e.m.p. weapons that disable enemy robots
  • Over 15 levels of gameplay
  • Battle robots, security drones, huge insects, and the evil Dr. X
  • Password system to save progress

Technical Aspects:

Just pop it in and start searching for the destructive Dr. X's secret base! Our 9-year-old son had no problems with it. The package accurately reflects what you see on the screen. The player's guide is easy to understand. This GBC is rated "E" for Everyone, but would be difficult for a child under 8 to appreciate.

Report and Conclusions:

Our son says this is a great game. He needed no assistance. He was able to find the answers to his questions in the player's guide and has spent hours enjoying the game with minimal frustration (...although he has not yet found Dr. X's secret base!) This game is based on the popular new series of G.I. Joe action figures. Action Man - Search for Base X bears the Official Nintendo Seal of Quality and is typical of other Nintendo GBC cartridges we've purchased: reliable edutainment.
