What's new and buzzing with Game Boy Advance? Pinobee: Wings of Adventure! Grandpa Bee loved creating mechanical devices and decided to create a robot bee. Before Grandpa could install a heart in the robot bee, someone kidnapped Grandpa! A fairy awoke Pinobee and told him to rescue Grandpa Bee.

Collect flowers to recharge Pinobee to prevent him from running out of energy. Collect specific items to gain a BINGO! Which allows you to carry more energy units, Pinobee's dash power to increase, and more. Watch out for moving spike blocks, rain (he might rust!), and enemies that need to be battled. Parents need to be aware that the word "butt" is used many times in expressions like "I kicked their butts!"

If another friend owns the Pinobee: Wings of Adventure cartridge, you can use a link cable and trade items to help you quickly build up your inventory and obtain some of the hard-to-find items. It is possible to complete the game without rescuing Grandpa Bee. Each time you complete a level, Pinobee will write in his diary. These diary entries will give you hints on ways to go back and replay that level to help complete the mission. Music in Pinobee: Wings of Adventure leaves a bit to be desired as it appears not to be any better than games in the Game Boy Color lineup. Although this game is a scrolling platform game, the graphics, fun, and adventure lead to a buzzing good time!
