Okay, so Home Alone on GB is basically you playing as Kevin McCallister—yes, the kid from the movie—trying to protect his house from those two goofy burglars. It’s a Game Boy game, so expect chunky pixels and that classic greenish screen vibe.

You start off running around the house, setting up traps like marbles on the stairs or tarantulas (yep, still terrifying) while dodging the bad guys. At first, it’s kinda chaotic—you’ll fumble a bit figuring out where to place stuff, but once you get the hang of it, watching them trip into your traps is stupidly satisfying.

It’s not super deep, but it nails the movie’s spirit. The music’s got that bouncy 8-bit charm, and the burglars move in these predictable-but-just-fast-enough-to-panic-you patterns. If you grew up with the film, it’s a weirdly nostalgic little time capsule. Just don’t expect a masterpiece—it’s pure, simple fun with a side of 90s cheese.
