Summary

Trax on Game Boy drops you into a top‑down tank arena where the only objective is to blast through waves of enemy units and towering bosses. The controls feel tight, letting you swivel the turret and fire a mix of standard shells, homing missiles and spread shots that you collect as you progress. Each level throws a new enemy pattern at you, forcing you to adapt your weapon choice and learn the timing of each boss’s attack phases. The game rewards experimentation – swapping a rapid‑fire cannon for a powerful but slow charge shot can turn a near‑certain defeat into a quick victory. With its crisp monochrome graphics and punchy sound effects, Trax manages to keep the action fresh despite the handheld’s limited hardware.
