Lemony Snicket's a Series of Unfortunate Events for Game Boy Advance puts players in the shoes of the Baudelaire orphans: Violet, Klaus, and Sunny. Based on the movie and first three books of the series, they must use their unique talents to progress through three chapters, each with over a dozen levels.
The game is an action & adventure experience where combat takes a backseat to clever puzzle-solving and adventure game elements. The orphans must use their talents, along with items found in the world, and various interactions to escape each level and avoid the evil Count Olaf and his plans to inherit the children's fortune.
Players will also have to assemble inventions from common household objects, such as Violet searching for ice cream scoopers, soup cans, and a crank to invent an "apple chucker". This game offers quite a bit of replayability, too, with quest points and exotic books earned for discovering all the quirky secrets.
