Donald Duck: Goin' Quackers (Game Boy Color)
Donald Duck: Goin' Quackers is a platform video game developed by Ubisoft Studios and published by Ubi Soft Entertainment Software for the Game Boy Color on 2000-10-19. Four different games were released with this same title across seven platforms, but the GBC title was the only 2D game.
In the game, the evil magician Merlock has kidnapped Daisy Duck. You play as Donald Duck who want to rescue her, so he recruits Gyro Gearloose for help. Gyro uses his teleporter, but Merlock has scattered the device's blueprints. Donald must first recover the blueprints and bring them to Gyro to finally confront Merlock and rescue Daisy.

Personal
I decided to play this game to improve my knowledge of the Game Boy Color catalog. I was a bit surprised that the game wasn't awful.

I don't own this game, but I am playing it.
Review
Good
- The game's graphics are very impressive for the GBC. Donald, especially, is very well animated.
Bad
Ugly
- The game is pretty boring. Every level uses the same mechanic: collect the objects while avoiding the hazards. There is a little variation with a couple auto-scrollers, but that's it. You don't get any power-ups and everything is linear. This would have been unimpressive in 1990, but, by 2000, it was unacceptable.
