Lizzie McGuire 2: Lizzie Diaries is a platformer released in 2004 for the Game Boy Advance, developed by Artificial Mind & Movement and published by Disney Interactive.

It is part of the Lizzie McGuire series; on the GBA you can also try Lizzie McGuire 3: Homecoming Havoc. Artificial Mind & Movement also made Ice Age, The Sims 2: Pets and Drake & Josh for the GBA.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.

Pick it if…

  • you want to run, jump and explore
  • you have time for an evening or two (roughly 1–6 hours to see it through)
  • you've played the GBA hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you get frustrated by precise jumps and limited lives
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing Lizzie McGuire 2: Lizzie Diaries is like

Platformers are all about movement: running, jumping and timing your way across levels full of gaps, enemies and secrets. The best ones feel great to control within seconds and then slowly teach you to master every leap.

Tip for newcomers: Retro platformers often have limited lives and few checkpoints. Learn one level at a time, look for hidden 1-ups, and don't be shy about using a save feature when it is available.
