4.0 out of 5 stars Better than the original?, 18 May 2007
By London Eskimo (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Polarium was one of the first Nintendo DS games to come out using the stylus to control the game, so I was surprised that this game would appear later on for the GBA featuring almost 4 times as many puzzles and a few improvements in some ways from the original game.

The basic idea of this puzzle game is to change coloured titles by flipping them over so that they match and form a line horizontally of the same colour. It's a simple idea but it will take time to master. Most of the best puzzle games are like this.

One thing that you will see from Polarium Advance is the step back in graphics and sound from other GBA puzzle games. It's all quite minimal at times but the idea works for the most part allowing you to concentrate on the puzzles themselves.

Some things have been added to this game from the original and a few things like the Challenge mode have been taken out. I would have liked to have seen more features in this game including a two player link up mode but allowing you to create your own puzzles and even adding new ones from either another GBA or DS is a nice touch. Also, I was able to find extra puzzles from the internet which I could store on this game. You have to key them in but you can save up to 100 custom puzzles.

Polarium Advance is a good game and will get you thinking but a few more features would have made it better. If you are fan of puzzle games you could do far worse than get this.

4.0 out of 5 stars HIDDEN GEM, 9 Jul 2008
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I don't often write reviews, but I just want to say that this is a brilliant little game, really under rated. If you like things that make you really think, this can be very rewarding. Not much to look at granted, but it is fun and addictive!!
