 Pocky & Rocky with Becky for Game Boy Advance Review - Game Boy Advance Pocky & Rocky with Becky Review
Pocky and Rocky with Becky has a lot in common with the space shooters you can find in arcades.
All of the action in the game's seven levels occurs on the ground, but enemies fly toward you from all directions, and their bullets have a tendency to pass right over solid objects such as trees and boulders.
The main difference between the characters is their unique power-up items: Rocky can equip a shot that seeks out enemies, Pocky has a special shot that explodes when it touches an enemy, and Becky's special attack fires in multiple directions.
