Title: Powerpuff Girls "Him and Seek"
Company: Bam! Entertainment
Type of Game: Action
System Requirements: Gameboy ADVANCE
Rating: E (Everyone)

Punch your way through Townsville in this fun-packed Powerpuff Girls game. In this game the players will travel through many places in Townsville such as the zoo and the jail. You will defeat dozens of enemies such as Boogie Man, Princess Morebucks and many robbers, prisoners and bandits.

You can choose to be Blossom, Bubbles or Buttercup (the three Powerpuff Girls) in the first three levels. Then you travel as all three. The whole game theme is based on a scavenger hunt for a project in class. Some of the items you will need you have to fight for. For example, you have to defeat Princess Morebucks to receive the princess tiara so you can check it off the list.

You will discover many items that aren't on the list like big heart, small heart, stars and chemical X. A big heart restores your health to its highest level. Small hearts restore your health partially. Stars restore your energy so you can use your awesome powers. Chemical X restores a dead Powerpuff Girl; by dead I mean one who has lost all of its health. Each girl has punch and kick and also comes with some of her own personal powers. Blossom comes with ice-breath; Buttercup comes with tornado while Bubbles has the power of sonic scream and thunderclap.

This game is one of the best hand-held games I've ever played. It has so many exciting levels. Probably the most boring level is when you are at Him's level. The screen moves even if you're not touching a button! If your character leaves the screen you automatically die. So overall I give this game an 8 out of 10 for all the excitement, adventure and suspense it places inside me whenever I turn it on. (January, 2003)
