Average License Game with Frustrating Controls
E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial: The 20th Anniversary on the Nintendo GBA tries to breathe new life into the iconic story, but unfortunately fails to do so. At home, we found the mix of simple platform and puzzle gameplay disappointing, especially since the controls feel clumsy and frustrating. Playing this game felt more like a chore than an enjoyable experience for me.
The graphics are indeed colourful, but the animations and environments come across as lifeless. As a result, the game lacks the charm that made the film so magical. The lack of variety in the level design contributes to the repetitive nature of the gameplay, making it hard to stay engaged. It feels like a missed opportunity to convey the emotion and magic of the film into the game.
While E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial remains a classic in the film world, this GBA version barely captures that feeling. The end result is an average license game that does not do justice to the beloved story. If you’re looking for a nostalgic experience, it might be better to rewatch the film than to play this game.
