Fun but frustrating at times.

Conker's Pocket Tales isn't a bad game. I love it and recently play it when I have any spare time. I am on the 3rd level out of 6. It isn't confusing, and really isn't hard, except for the fact how you can die so easily. I could sit for hours playing this game, and it is worth every penny! I admit it, it was hard at first, but as you warm up to playing it, it isn't bad at all. I would recommend this game to 8-12 year olds.

My bright four year old son loved this game until he realized he could only manage half the tasks on the first level. Now it frustrates him to no end. He cannot move quickly enough for the sub-games. My husband and myself had a nearly impossible time with some of the sub-games. It is utterly frustrating. In addition, you get killed so easily it becomes boring waiting for the system to re-boot over and over. I found it annoying. Many times I was tempted to heave the thing across the room. No wonder my Dad told me to never play video games! The only benefit was IF you could get to the new worlds, they were fun to explore.

great game

I don't know why everyone thought this was such a hard game. You just have to get used to it. When i first picked it up and played, I thought it waas bad...but I later picked it up and started playing, and I loved it. Once you get used to it it gets really fun. The graphics are good, the controls aren't too hard to master, and the game is pretty long. Overall a very good game!

Hard but not impossible. Frustrating but enjoyable

I am a 30ish mom of a 5 year old. I bought it for him. It would be too hard for him to play without some guidence to help him understand what he is looking for in the game.

At first I found it to be confusing and hard, but once you get the hange of it, it's really fun. Just remember...gather all the acorns and conkers you can, every chance you can, and you will be fine.

loved it

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ok listen up. I realy do not like this game, that is why i want to review it. It has good graphics, and is funny at times, yet it is so impossible to beat the first level! I am 14 years old. I am a gameboy freak, I know this stuff. My cousin had gotten this game for his birthday. He is 6, and he to has problems with it. I do not recommend this game to children under 12. Anyone over 12 might understand it and use there braain power to figue these things out. (This game is mostly like a puzzle.)

This game is beautiful, but falls short in many ways.

This was one of the first games that I got for my game boy color and it is a beutiful game with rich, colorful graphics. Even the graphics on the game boy pocket are beautiful. This game even has a cheesy, but semi-interesting story. But even the story and graphics werent enough to keep my attention throughout the entire quest, even with all the mini-games and secrets to find. If you liked Zelda you might like this one, even if only for a little bit.

I played Conker's Pocket Tales and thought it was okay. The graphics were pretty good and it ran smoothly. The only problems were that it is way too easy to die and the minigames strain your thumbs more than your mind. I've been stuck at one point for weeks and none of my friends have been quick enough to beat the minigame. I got frustrated at points, but if you manage to beat it there are many interesting and mentally challenging worlds to get through.

Quite a challenge, but fun...

Conker's Pocket Tales is a pretty good game for the GBC, though it can be very frustrating at times due to the fact that you can loose lives so quickly.

Conker's birthday party has been ruined by an Evil Acorn (yes, an acorn), and he's stolen Conker's gifts and his friend, Berri. It is up to you to get his presents back and defeat a variety of the Evil Acorn's bosses to get to Berri.

This game is pretty addictive, but once again, it's frustrating and sometimes it gets hard. What is a game without a good challenge, though? I would not recommend this game to fairly young children or people with low tolerance for games like this one. Overall, Conker's Pocket Tales is a fun game. If you can overlook the frustrating parts, you will probably really enjoy this game!

I HATED IT

IT STINKS. Dont waste your money on this game.I bought it and it's very confusing. Also it's to easy to die on the game. And it's almost impossible to find keys and weapons.Trust me don't buy this game.id give it 1 out of 5 stars.
