Looney Tunes: Back in Action is a platformer released for the Game Boy Advance, developed by Warthog and published by Electronic Arts.

It is part of the Looney Tunes series; on the GBA you can also try Looney Tunes Double Pack. The series also appears on other systems with Looney Tunes Collector: Alert! (GBC) and Road Runner's Death Valley Rally (SNES). Warthog also made Animaniacs: Lights, Camera, Action!, Tiny Toon Adventures: Wacky Stackers and Pinky and the Brain: The Master Plan 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 Looney Tunes: Back in Action 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.
