Amazon.com Product Description

In Monsters, Inc., based on characters from the Disney/Pixar movie, you'll help Sulley, the top scarer at Monsters and the biggest, bluest, most sweet-hearted monster of all, get Boo home. Randall, the second-best kid scarer at Monsters and a calculating chameleon, has shredded Boo's door. Now it's up you and Sulley to recover the door pieces and get her home safely. With more than 20 levels of Monstropolis to explore and bonus minigames and puzzles to play, you'll be too busy challenging your skills to be scared of a few furry monsters. And, if you're in a pinch, don't forget to use Sulley's impressive roar and the Laugh Launcher to surprise your enemies!

4.0 out of 5 stars Fan of the movie? Check it out!, November 25, 2001

I'm an avid fan of Monsters, Inc. as well as a long time video game enthusiast, and I can say that I honestly enjoyed my romp through this game. Though it doesn't take very long to complete, it accurately captures the fun and feel of the movie that fans of all ages are sure to enjoy.

The gameplay consists of standard action/adventure fare. Sulley is to find a number of particular items scattered across different areas, including pieces of Boo's door, laugh cannisters, Boo's teddy bear, etc. Find 100 pieces of candy for an extra life - sound familiar? There is nothing groundbreaking here, but it isn't a chore to play as it controls extremely well and the levels are laid out very well.

The graphics and animation are top-notch for a GBA game, as Sulley and just about every other character in the game are animated very clearly and smoothly.

Bottom Line - If you enjoyed the movie, there is an excellent chance you will enjoy this game - especially the younger bunch.

My son is 6 and he is a gameboy addict so to say that only older children play gameboy is false. My daughter is 4 and my friend's son is 3 and they too are addicts. SO this game is perfect for them.
