Okay, so Arle's Adventure—this is one of those weird little Game Boy Color gems that slipped under the radar back in the day. The English beta’s a bit rough around the edges (it’s a fan translation, after all), but man, it nails that classic GBC vibe. You’ve got chunky pixel sprites, chiptune music that somehow gets stuck in your head, and this weirdly addictive loop of exploring and solving puzzles.

At first, I thought it was just another generic adventure game, but there’s something oddly charming about it. Arle moves kinda slow, yeah, but the world’s packed with little secrets—like, who puts a hidden item behind *that* tree? The dialogue’s goofy in that old-school RPG way, and the battles? Simple, but satisfying when you figure out the timing.

If you’ve got a soft spot for janky retro games or just want to see what could’ve been a lost GBC title, give it a shot. Just don’t expect polish—this is pure ’90s handheld weirdness.
