Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure is an action game that was re-released on the Nintendo Wii Virtual Console in 2008.
+ Focus on item collection adds a scavenger hunt element, and the elusive sewer areas provide fun, bite-sized challenges.
+ Mixture of short and long-range attacks gives ample ways to approach combat, and the ability to fly opens up the levels.
+ Animation is incredible, with expressive characters that ooze personality, and the music fits the kooky vibe.
- Gameplay doesn't do anything to advance its initial concepts, resulting in repetitive levels that blur together.
- Lots of blind leaps of faith and enemies that respawn out of thin air, and the disappointing boss battles are too samey.
- Controls have a slippery feel and the dodgy collision detection / spaced-out checkpoints amplify the frustrations.
