Summary

Bill & Ted's Excellent Game Boy Adventure (often shortened to Bill & Ted's Excellent Portable Adventure) feels like a tiny time‑traveling puzzle box in your pocket. Each single‑screen level is a self‑contained maze where I have to hop between platforms, swing on ladders or rope‑drawn bridges and snatch floating time fragments before the clock runs out. The enemies are just a handful of silhouettes that behave differently, making their patterns easy to read on the Game Boy’s four‑tone palette. The graphics are deliberately simple: Bill and Ted share almost identical sprites, a reminder of the handheld’s pixel limits and the era’s design choices. Despite that, the game rewards quick thinking and timing, turning a nostalgic movie license into a surprisingly clever action‑puzzle experience.

Storyline

In Bill & Ted's Excellent Game Boy Adventure: A Bogus Journey! the villain Chuck De Nomolos launches a new scheme to rewrite history. He has stolen special orbs known as Time Fragments and scattered them across different eras, forcing the San Dimas duo to hop through time to recover each piece.

The mission isn’t simple. De Nomolos enlists an evil robot version of Bill and Ted, brainwashes Death, and even manipulates various historical figures to block the heroes at every turn. These antagonists create puzzles and battles that test Bill and Ted’s wits and friendship.

Only by gathering all the Time Fragments can the pair restore the timeline and stop De Nomolos from reshaping the future, ensuring that history stays on its proper track.
