Item Description

Years before Zuma turned the idea into a PC sensation, Mitchell Corporation's arcade puzzler Puzz Loop had players firing colored balls into a chain that crept steadily along a winding track. Ballistic is that game on the Game Boy Color, brought to North America by Infogrames in 1999 under a punchier name.

The concept takes seconds to learn and much longer to master. A line of colored balls rolls toward the end of the track, and you shoot new balls into it to make groups of three or more of the same color, which vanish and let the gaps close. When a gap closes on two matching colors, the chain reacts, and stringing those reactions together is where the big scores and the real satisfaction live. Let the line reach the end and it is over.

There is plenty to chew on for a handheld cartridge. Panic mode keeps the pressure building, Time Attack is built for score chasers, and Checkmate offers 50 stages, starting with five and unlocking more as you clear them, each one asking you to read the colors and plan your shots rather than just react. It suits the Game Boy Color well: short bursts, clear colors and a hook that keeps saying one more try.

For puzzle collectors, Ballistic is a neat bit of genre history: the handheld version of the arcade game whose formula went on to inspire a whole wave of ball-shooting puzzlers. That makes it a sharp find for a Game Boy Color shelf.
