Trump Boy II is one of those Game Boy titles that somehow nails that perfect mix of frustration and nostalgia. You know the type—where the pixel art looks simple but hides some surprisingly tricky platforming, and the chiptune soundtrack gets stuck in your head for days.

Right off the bat, you're thrown into this weirdly charming world where you're dodging enemies that look like they were scribbled in a kid's notebook. The controls feel stiff at first (classic Game Boy jank), but after a few levels, you start nailing those jumps like it's 1995 again. There's something satisfying about figuring out the timing for those old-school mechanics—like when to duck under a flying enemy or how to bait them into traps.

And yeah, the puzzles are actually clever. Not just "push the block" stuff—some levels make you stop and think for a second, which I wasn’t expecting. The later worlds get brutal, though. Bring patience.

If you’ve got a soft spot for retro handheld games, this one’s a solid time capsule.
