How original can you get? I am not much of a fan of puzzle games, but when I played this game at Toys R Us, I couldn't put the thing down and I spent 45min playing this game. This for me was a must have, so I pre-ordered it. First thing I did. I have 3 rules that make a game great. I grade them on the 3 rules Rule#1: Originality. How original is this, interstellar spuds, mathcing them up with their girlfriends, since when would you think that up?. rule#2 Gameplay. This is a prime example. It's basic gameplay, and not complex. Rule #3. Graphic. It depends for some people on graphics. Personnaly, since this is no N64, I think they done good. Buying this would be a smart idea if you are lookin for your kid to stretch their brains a little, it ain't no phonics game, but thats what makes this a great game P.S. Alex Trebeck doesn't know what the heck he's talkin' 'bout.

Ths Hot Potato game is not for everyone. It is simple in the pick up. The graphics are not Castlevania, and the sound isn't star wars. But what it lacks in these items it makes up for in shear fun. The little changes from most puzzlers like the forced moving and the changing enviorment make this worth the money for the game. Not only that but the little bonuses like freeing point spaces in order for more points and the occasional bat potato make the game a gem just to watch and laugh at. If your looking for graphics go else where, if your looking for fun this may be the game for you.

I enjoyed this game very much. I think you will too. I like the concept of the game. This game is challenging but not impossible. It is one of those games you just can't put down! It has a lot of levels so you can't beat it in one day but not so many it gets borring. I like the maze part in this game. It makes you think.(but not to much)Overall this is my favorite gameboy advanced game so far.

I absolutely recommend this game! It is perfect for us adults as it's addictive & humourous & original as well.The gameplay is hard to explain but i'll try, because I know what its like trying to choose games!... OK, You have a vehicle with the potatoes in it & they are two colours. The vehicle scrolls up the screen & as it does you must shoot the potatoes from the vehicle to match thier colours. It is a cross between a shootinggame/puuzzle & platform, hard to explain, but I hope I have helped a bit. For the younger ones it is also perfect because it is cute & not overly hard. I have played many puzzle games & platforms on Sega, Playstation & Nintento & this would be one of my favs, get it now!

Chances are, if you liked (or still like) Tetris, then you will enjoy Hot Potato on the Gameboy Advance. The storyline is unique to say the least, the action/gameplay is fast-paced, and the graphics are pretty good. Also, the game becomes very challenging as you advance through the levels.

The controls work well on the GBA, and it is my guess that most gamers will have them down in just a few games, if not sooner.

This game is basically a puzzle game with quite a bit of action, in the sense that you are actually "shooting" potatos up the screen. Like I said, this game is out of left field.

Strange, but definitely fun. Now that the retail has dropped quite a bit on this title I would pick it up.

Hot Potato wins the award for most unique game on the market right now; it is also fun to play as well. The game is a fast-paced arcade style puzzle game---kinda like a souped-up Tetris. I wasn't much of a tetris fan back in the day, but this game goes far beyond what that one had to offer. My only complaint is the game's pricetag...it is at the 40 bucks level. Kinda high for a game that revolves around firing potatoes up the screen.

This game is the best of the best games on gameboy advanced. It is a must buy game! I enjoyed it so much I just had to buy it. It is very fun and action packed! It is challenging but not impossible. It has lots of levels but not too many. The puzzles in the game are very puzzling. They make you think.(but not too much!)It will entertain you for hours and hours.

This is the best game I've played so far, the attention to detail is incredible, and really shows off the new console. This is such a good puzzle game and this is the first time I've stopped playing except for food and water. me and my friend dave are going to start a fan club for this game. I haven't been out for three days now and my eyes hurt. my mum is threatening to hide my gameboy. she thinks it is bad for my health. smelly mummy. I like this game lots and lots.

I just got the Gameboy Advance and wanted to purchase a few games for variety. I bought this game because of reviews given. I'll admit the game has it's cute points, is easy to learn, but to sum up in one word it is BORING. There are many other puzzler games that I have liked in the past and this game does not measure up.

Hot Potatoe is one of the most addictive games that i have ever played. The idea of the game is round up the potatoes, hence clearing the screen. You are added in this by a range of power ups and multipliers that improve your score. The game might seem dodgy by my explaination but if you buy this game you will understand what im on about. Top Game!
