Next up on the Halloween countdown series, is The Nightmare Before Christmas for Game Boy Advance. Unlike most mediocre movie tie-in games on the platform, this MetroidVania style game is actually enjoyable. It's not especially difficult- I'd say probably about as challenging as Master of Darkness for Sega Master System (a blatant Castlevania clone), but has enough variation to the gameplay to keep the player engaged, along with a strong visual presentation and somewhat decent sound for the system. A couple silly sound effects detract from the experience a bit (picking up health items and using the "Frog Gun", for example), but besides that I found myself enjoying this quite a bit. The animation is well done here, and it makes a good effort in portraying the source material. This game takes place before the movie and is considered a prequel story.

I plan on returning to finish this one in a livestream sometime.
