Crystal Quest on Game Boy is one of those games that just feels right in your hands—like it was made for late-night sessions under the covers with a dim flashlight. You start off in this weird little pixel world, and suddenly you're dodging floating eyeballs and collecting crystals like it's the most important thing in the universe. The controls are simple, but the levels get sneaky fast.

I remember thinking, "Oh, this looks cute," and then immediately getting wrecked by a swarm of those bouncing blobs. The music’s got that classic Game Boy chiptune vibe—catchy but not annoying after the hundredth loop. And yeah, the graphics are basic, but there’s something satisfying about how clean everything looks, like an old arcade game that doesn’t need flashy effects to mess with your reflexes.

If you’ve still got a Game Boy kicking around, this one’s a no-brainer. Just don’t blame me when you lose track of time trying to beat your high score.
