For Hello Kitty collectors only

Yes, I love Hello Kitty...Unfortunately, "Hello Kitty Cube Frenzy" is just another Tetris-style cartridge that doesn't quite deliver.

There's a large problem--but not NewKidCo's fault--in the basic design of this game. As gameplayers, we want and expect a Tetris-type game...an easy and familiar gameplaying concept...but "Hello Kitty Cube Frenzy" is different enough from Tetris to frustrate. I'm willing of course to admit this is *my* fault in coming to the game...unique design twists on old games and familiar gameplay are always something to be applauded. What *is* NewKidCo's fault is the spotty and anemic instructions that are poorly written and complicated. I pride myself on being able to play any Game Boy game for the first time *without* reading the instructions, but even after studying the booklet, I was confused and baffled by the gameplay.

Another major negative point is a difficulty level far beyond the age group for which this is geared (well, *I* couldn't get past the fourth level at all, but an eight-year-old might surprise me--I like a *challenging* game, but not an infuriatingly *frustrating* one). Tiny, tiny characters and weak use of color were also a disappointment (quiet pastels do *not* translate well to the Game Boy Color). Finally, the 'cube stacking' concept simply doesn't lend itself to Hello Kitty at all. It seems a concept shoehorned onto the character to sell a game to Sanrio fans. I was hoping for gameplay that involved Hello Kitty as a specific character, but here she could be replaced by any number of light-pixeled characters: Mario, Yoshi, Kirby, maybe even Lara Croft.

In short, if you're a Sanrio collector who *must* have ever Hello Kitty item ever made, go ahead, buy this one. If you're a gameplayer who's looking for an involving and rewarding cartridge, borrow it from a friend, because you'll tire of it quickly.

It's about time they started releasing some of the Sanrio character video games here in the US. This is a fun, well done puzzle game. It starts out very easy and has an excellent tutorial. I fear it will quickly become too challenging for the younger gamers this title is aimed at. Seeing the other Sanrio characters (esp. bad bad Badtz Maru!) is a nice bonus.

Too hard for younger players

My niece found the game too hard although it is geared for "early childhood". Although only 4 years old, other games like the Barbie Ocean and Pokemon were fine for her. This one was too frustrating.

Helllloooo Kittttttyyyy!

I'm a big fan of Hello Kitty and am so happy sh'e finally got a game on GBC! The game is very much like Tetris and keeps you on your toes. Don't get this game thinking it's an easy or "girl" game! It's very tough and gets only tougher as you progress! If you are looking for a challenge though, this one is for you.

The story pannels are very pretty and really show off the characters (even though the story is pretty weak), but in actual game play the sprites are exremely small and it's hard to tell who is who. This adds to the frustration factor, and increases the difficulty. Let's hope this isn't the last we see of Hello Kitty, this game proves there is a lot that can be done with the license.

Don't pass up this game because of the title.

I sometimes get embarassed to say I own this, but the game is very cute, and even more fun. It does get increasingly more difficult, even on the "Easy" Setting, but the chance to get to play as other favorite characters is a special incentive.

Great game for Hello kitty LOVERS!
