Summary

Army Men 2 on the Game Boy Color lets you swing between the ordinary world and the tiny plastic battlefield, using portals that stitch the two realms together. The real‑world stages feel like everyday rooms and backyards, while the plastic world turns those same spaces into oversized war zones for the green, tan and gray plastic troops.

The handheld version leans heavily into fast‑paced action, a shift from the original’s more tactical feel, and it was crafted by Digital Eclipse under 3DO’s banner. Critics noted that the GBC iteration actually fared a bit better than its PC counterpart, praising its smooth controls and the way the portal mechanic kept the levels feeling fresh.

Storyline

In *Army Men 2* for the Game Boy Color, the Tan commander Plastro launches an invasion of the Green lands. Sarge races the Tan forces through a portal and ends up in a kitchen, where Major Mylar betrays Plastro, shatters the portal and seizes control of the Tan army.

From the kitchen Sarge and a small squad battle across the counter, locate a portal back to the plastic Jungle (Level 1), secure a radio installation (Level 2), win a tank showdown (Level 3) and rescue a Blue spy before escaping through an airfield (Level 4).

While searching for a missing colonel on a tropical island, Sarge discovers a "Cult" of soldiers from all four colors led by the deranged colonel (Level 5). The colonel flees through a portal into a front yard, where Sarge tracks and eliminates him (Level 6).

Sarge’s plane is shot down onto a zombie‑infested island created by the mad Grey scientist Dr. Madd. He destroys the mold‑factory generators (Level 7), pursues Madd to a desert and eliminates other scientists (Level 8), then uses another portal to stop fleeing scientists on a garage hobby table (Level 9). A final portal drops him at a remote Tan base where he battles the last scientists, zombies and suicide bombers (Level 10).

The climax sees Sarge assault the Tan fortress, rescue the Blue spy, find a key and destroy a weapon of mass destruction before escaping to Major Mylar’s HQ in a child’s bedroom. He defeats Mylar on a fortress‑like playset (Level 12). In the epilogue the Greens celebrate a sweeping victory, while General Plastro watches from a nightstand, hinting at a new threat for the next encounter.
