Developed by Torus Games and published by Ubisoft, Planet of the Apes arrived on the Game Boy Advance in 2001 as an action-adventure game. It blends action-adventure and adventure elements.

Pick it if…

- you are looking for something to play with friends
What playing Planet of the Apes is like
Action-adventures blend real-time combat with exploration, puzzles and item collection. You open up a larger world gradually as new tools let you reach places you couldn't before.
Tip for newcomers: Keep a mental (or paper) map of locked doors and unreachable ledges; most action-adventures expect you to come back once you find the right item.
