Summary
Zool on the Game Boy captures the frantic speed that made the original Amiga title a declared rival to Sonic the Hedgehog, squeezing that high‑octane platforming into a handheld format. The gremlin‑hero darts through seven distinct lands, each ending with a boss, while hidden warp points and a quirky piano‑tuned secret level reward exploration beyond the main run. Power‑ups replace the early‑prototype spells, letting you leap out of pits or double your firepower with a shadow clone, and the game even sneaks in a scrolling space‑shooter mini‑game for a brief change of pace. A fun footnote is the Chupa Chups branding that pops up throughout, a reminder of the candy company’s sponsorship during development. The Game Boy port earned an 80% rating from Power Unlimited, proving the fast‑moving fun survived the transition to a tiny screen.
Storyline
In the Game Boy version of Zool, the player controls Zool, a gremlin‑styled Ninja of the Nth Dimension who crash‑lands on Earth. To earn his ninja ranking, he must trek through seven distinct lands, each ending with a boss battle that he must defeat. The journey is a classic side‑scrolling quest where each land presents its own set of enemies and platform challenges. By clearing all seven bosses, Zool proves his skill and completes his interdimensional mission.
