I'm sure everyone's heard of this game in some form or another.  It's a game featuring the animated works of Don Bluth, a former Disney animator who made works such as the Secret of Nimh.  the original version, the Arcade version, was a game that plays more like a quick-time button-pressed movie, than an actual game, but holds a very high place in history.  Many other versions of it would follow, with the NES, GB and SNES versions considered one of the absolute worst games of all time.  Recently, it has been made available on Steam, updated with HD widescreen cinematics, I believe.

But.....it seems not many people know about the GBC version.

Does it not blow your mind to see the fact that the Gameboy Color was capable of all of that?

Not really.  Looks like a better colored version of the DOS version.  Actually looks somewhat easy to program and animate.  Many sequences looked repeated much as they were in the DOS version back in the day.

If this had hit the original Game Boy, then yeah, it would have been a huge technical feat.
I never saw this version either way.  Never was into "make the right move" games.
