Pipe Dream on the Game Boy is one of those simple-but-addictive puzzle games where you're frantically slapping down pipe pieces before time runs out. The screen starts with a tiny water source, and you've gotta connect the right bends, straights, and crosses to guide the flow as far as possible. Sounds easy until the pieces start coming faster and your "perfect" path gets ruined by one wrong turn.

It's the Japanese version, but don't worry—there's barely any text, just pure pipe chaos. The Game Boy's chunky pixels actually work in its favor here, making it easy to spot gaps in your plumbing masterpiece. You'll swear you've got it figured out, then suddenly the water hits a dead end and you're scrambling to reroute. Classic '90s frustration in the best way.

If you've played Pipe Mania on other systems, this is the same thing but pocket-sized. Perfect for short bursts or long "just one more try" sessions.
