Man, Tumble Pop on the Game Boy is one of those weird little games that just sticks with you. You’ve got this vacuum thing, right? And you’re running around sucking up enemies like some kind of ghostbuster-meets-plumber. The controls are simple—just jump and shoot—but the levels get surprisingly tricky once the screen fills up with bouncing goons.

The pixel art’s got that chunky, early-90s charm, and the music is pure arcade nostalgia. I remember getting stuck on this one level with moving platforms for way too long—kept missing jumps because I’d panic when three enemies spawned at once. Pro tip: don’t just mash the vacuum button; time it right or you’ll waste shots.

It’s not some deep RPG or anything, but it’s perfect for quick sessions when you just want to zone out and blast through a few stages. That satisfying *pop* when you clear a screen never gets old.
