Game and Watch Fantasies v2.0 review

Game and Watch Fantasies v2.0 is a very quirky, different game. You play as a strange looking guy which can only move and jump at a set distance. In this puzzle/platformer you must navigate platforms, trees, lcd displays, and much more but often you character doesn't line up with the object you need to jump on or through. You will find yourself moving the little guy up against walls or jumping up against ceilings to reset/change the pattern in which he moves.

GWF is unique and fun. The gameplay is challenging and different. Graphics are decent and appropriate for the style of game. Controls work well and respond as expected. The music is quiet and soothing which is needed at times because of the level of frustration which can be reached trying to figure out some of the levels. The score in GWF is determined by the number of moves or jumps you make. The lower the number the better. I was doing pretty good (I think) until I reached level 15 where I proceeded to triple my score. This level stopped me cold (see screenshot above). A nice feature included in Game and Watch Fantasies is autosave. When you quit the game it automatically saves your progress and you can return to the same place the next time you play.

Even though this game can be quite difficult, it is very entertaining and if you like puzzle and/or platform games I suggest you give it a try.
