Description official descriptions

An American Tail: Fievel's Gold Rush is a side scrolling Jump'n Run featuring Fievel, the little mouse from the movie An American Tail. It features six graphically different worlds with four levels each. Each world is completed by defeating a boss monster.

While the background story asks for finding six pieces of the lost map to a goldmine (hence the six worlds), the basic task is to collect gold for points and extra lives. The gold also works as an indicator to see how much of a level has actually been explored. Fievel can jump on enemies and throw his hat in a boomerang fashion.

Oh, man! What a great, fun and pleasant game.

The Good
What did I like about this game?

Oh man! What didn´t I like about this game would be a better question. Everything and I repeat...everything about this game, I love. Everything you would like to have in a side-scrolling action game platform for Game Boy Advance is here: Nice graphics, good control, very according music for the levels and this fun factor of being kept all the time hooked along with the game, something that not all action games have.

The dog Sheriff Wilie sends him by means of a mailer dove with the name Pierre, a letter to Fievel saying to him that it went away of trip to the west to obtain something of money, he found a mine in the old west.

But that apparently, the villain Cat Malone also wanted to do to him with the fortune of which Willie found in a left mine the old west, therefore he sends to Fievel a chunk of map with the letter. By means of advancing in the game, chunks of the remaining maps will appear, being whole six pieces, which would be equivalent to six levels with four sub-levels each one. These go from New York passing from the sewers to the old mine in the west.

I honestly believe that we have a very entertained game, with a great character-like protagonist and that surely will not disappoint those who look for a good side side-scrolling action game for her game boy advance.

The Bad
I did not like very much the idea of that models have placed 3D in game instead of the prominent figures that have cartoon-like aspects. Fievel in the game It is very well animated, but the enemies lack a bit at this point and it is obvious along the game.

The Bottom Line
Definitely one of the best action games in the Game Boy Advance. It's a little short, but it's really fun.

Fievel rules!!
