The Real Ghostbusters, released for the Nintendo Game Boy in 1990, was a side-scrolling action-adventure game based on the popular cartoon series of the same name. Developed and published by Activision, it was one of the first games to be released for the console and is often cited as being one of its best titles.

The game follows the four Ghostbusters – Peter Venkman, Egon Spengler, Ray Stantz and Winston Zeddemore – as they travel through a variety of different levels in order to capture ghosts and rid New York City of paranormal activity. The gameplay is divided into two parts: exploration and battle. During exploration sections, players must navigate their way through a level while avoiding obstacles such as pits and enemies. When an enemy is encountered, players must switch to battle mode where they can use their proton packs to fight off the ghostly foes.

The game features six levels which take place in various locations around New York City such as Central Park and Times Square. Each level consists of multiple stages which must be completed by capturing all the ghosts present before progressing onto the next stage. As players progress through each level they can collect power-ups such as extra lives and health refills that will help them on their quest to save New York City from supernatural forces.

In addition to its main campaign mode, The Real Ghostbusters also features a two-player cooperative mode where two players can join forces to tackle each stage together. While playing cooperatively both players’ progress is saved so that if one player has completed more stages than another they can continue from where they left off when playing solo again. This feature adds an extra layer of depth to the game making it even more enjoyable for those who are looking for an even greater challenge than what is offered in single-player mode.

Overall The Real Ghostbusters for Nintendo Game Boy is an excellent action-adventure title that offers hours of entertainment with its unique blend of exploration and battle sections combined with its vibrant visuals and catchy soundtrack make it a great choice for fans of classic platformers or those looking for something different than what other games have to offer on the platform. Although it may not be remembered as fondly as some other Nintendo Game Boy classics such as Super Mario Land or Tetris, The Real Ghostbusters still stands out among them due to its unique design choices that made it stand out among other titles available at the time.
