TANG TANG , released on August 28th, 2001 for the GameBoy Advance, has been invaded by monsters that are after the energy crystals. The only hope of the TANG to get back to normal is to call upon four superheroes known as the Tangibles.
The game follows a similar puzzle/action gameplay style to Solomon's Key, where you control one of the four superheroes who can create and destroy blocks, shoot laser beams, and collect energy crystals scattered around each level. Your goal is to gather all the energy crystals while avoiding enemies, with doors unlocking to progress to the next level.
Each level consists of 120 levels (though it's actually 30 unique levels), each with four different enemy positions. Additionally, every five levels, you'll have to fight against a boss. With its unique gameplay mechanics and challenging levels, TANG TANG is an exciting action & adventure experience for fans of puzzle games.

In the year 3025, four super dimensional cyborg heroes known as Tangibles are called upon to defend the TANG planets from a savage alien invasion. These cyborgs must use their unique ability to conjure solid blocks, along with their cunning and quick reflexes, to retrieve stolen Energy Crystals and push back the advancing armada.
Story
Story
In the year 3025, the peaceful planets of The Associated Nexus of Galaxies (TANG) are threatened by hordes of invaders bent on pillaging their natural resource, Energy Crystals. Their attack is quick and precise; the planets are almost completely overrun by these savage aliens.
The TANG, now backed into a corner, initiate their last line of defense. They call upon four super dimensional cyborg heroes to retrieve the Energy Crystals and push back the advancing armada.
Heroes
Called Tangibles for their ability to conjure up solid blocks out of thin air, these brave soldiers will use their cunning, quick reflexes, and Power Bolts.
