Game & Watch Gallery on Game Boy is like digging up a time capsule full of those tiny LCD games from the 80s—except now you can actually take it with you. You’ve got classics like Fire (rescue people from a burning building, but good luck not dropping them) and Octopus (dodge tentacles while grabbing treasure, which is way harder than it sounds). The modern redrawn sprites give them a little polish, but the gameplay’s still pure, simple chaos.
What’s cool is you can switch between the original black-and-white versions or the updated ones—the old-school mode even keeps the janky two-button controls for authenticity. I spent way too long trying to beat my high score in Oil Panic before realizing I’d been holding the Game Boy sideways for 20 minutes. It’s the kind of game you play in short bursts, but good luck putting it down after "just one more try."
If you’ve ever wondered why people got obsessed with these weird little games back in the day, here’s your answer.
