It's time to save those poor little Gobbos from the evil clutches of Baron Dante. The evil magician is causing more button-bashing mayhem on your Game Boy Color and there's only one mouthy little monster capable of rescuing these cute critters.

It doesn't take long to work out that this little adventure has got a great deal going for it, and the pace of the game is incredible. Although crocodiles can't run in real-life, this one sure can, and controlling Croc is extremely pleasing. You can just glide through the sharp colourful levels using all of his original moves, including the Tailflip and Stomp. The game has a total of four worlds to be completed, and within each world there are a number of levels in which you have to save all your little Gobbo friends.

It's very similar to playing Mario Land, with different atmospheric worlds and items to collect which give you a free life. As in many other games, you have to run around the level collecting letters as you go to make up a word, like "Bonus", which will then open up a sub-game and give you the chance to save the final Gobbo of the level.

With Croc's outstanding graphics and brightly coloured levels, there is plenty of attraction for everyone and the gameplay is just as engrossing! This is one game that's definitely worth getting your teeth into.

Hidden around the levels you'll find a number of keys for doors and cages. Search everywhere to find the captured Gobbos and release them all to defeat the evil Baron Dante! You'll need the key on the left in order to open a cage and rescue another Gobbo!

Go on Croc, fella - grab it! Placing the key in the cage will release the cute little chap. You'll need to rescue them all in order to progress!

This will definitely please platform fans with its originality and superb graphics. Although Croc may appeal to the younger gamer, it's a stunning game that deserves a good look by everyone.
