Whatﾒs up, Doc?

Looney Tunes: Back in Action for the Game Boy Advance is an action adventure game loosely based on the movie of the same name. The evil head of the ACME corporation has taken over Warner Bros. Studios and is trying to find the mysterious Blue Monkey Diamond. Itﾒs up to Bugs and Daffy to save the day.

You play the game in a 3-D isometric viewpoint. Switch between Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck to solve puzzles and beat the bad guys. Bugs and Daffy have different skills that youﾒll have to use to overcome obstacles. Bugs can jump long distances and burrow in the ground, while Daffy can swim in water. Goals are mainly collecting items and fetch quests. Bugs and Daffy use toon style weapons against enemies, like anvils and dynamite. The cartoon duo will traverse a multitude of areas, from a Las Vegas casino to the jungles of Africa, meeting familiar Looney Tunes characters along the way. Graphics and sound are fittingly cartoony, but the play control can be a little confusing because of the gameplay viewpoint.

Kid Factor:
While most adults may find this game rather derivative, kids will probably enjoy the simple gameplay and familiar characters. Young players may find the isometric viewpoint a bit confusing to move around in, though. No real violence, just standard Looney Tunes hijinks. Thatﾒs all, folks!
