What Drill Dozer provides is a refreshing gameplay experience, while also becoming a throwback of sorts to longtime game
With the success of the Nintendo DS and age taking its toll, the Game Boy Advance has not had the same amount of great games in 2006 as it has had in previous years. While the portable system has remained successful, its... Read Full Review

A beautiful swansong and a last hurrah for the GameBoy Advance.
Overview: It's kinda sad that Game Freak is so wrapped up in making Pokémon games when their other games, such as Pulseman, Mario & Wario, and Drill Dozer are so much more fun. How so? On with the review.... Drill Doz... Read Full Review

a good invention and an interesting aesthetic experience, let down by mediocre, over-conventional level design.

Drill Dozer is a strange game.. But is still one of the better platformers of the last generation.
Drill Dozer is a strange game. At first the whole concept seems a bit simplistic and you may be instantly annoyed at having to recollect any lost gears... but then it happens... Something new is added just before you b... Read Full Review

Fun but forgettable...
I suppose at this point in time it's difficult to get truly excited about any GBA title. I had fun with Drill Dozer but nothing that inspired me to play for any length of time. It was a fun side scroller with an interest... Read Full Review

Very fun!
This game is so much fun, but can be very hard at times. The most challenge comes from the bosses, but you just have to be sure on what to do. That's nice to have a game that isn't really hard or really easy, it throws s... Read Full Review

Who knew Cute Girls with Drills could be so much fun.
Seeing that drill Dozer came out so late in the GBA's lifetime it did not get the credit it deserved. The games starts out with your father having been beat up by a rival band of thiefs you take on his job as the Boss of... Read Full Review

Drill Dozer is a fun, and rather addictive side-scroller that's sure to entertain you for hours.
The era of the Gameboy Advance was a happy one. The GBA had its share of good games and bad games. Drill Dozer, however, is not one of those games. In Drill Dozer you control a little girl named Jill whose the daughte... Read Full Review

Drilling is dull work
Ah…drills. While I cannot confess to know much on the subject, they're no doubt the topic of intense intelligent discussion in high-up society. I mean, what's not to like about drills? After all, they…drill. And, if you ... Read Full Review

While it's a valiant effort overall, Drill Dozer is nice but the gimmick of the drill gets old way too fast.
In Drill Dozer you play as a child jewel thief who along with her posse is out to get back her family's prized Red Diamond. The story works well, the characters are memorable the graphics are what you have come to expec... Read Full Review

Drill Dozer combines platform elements with fun new mechanics to make for one of the last, great experiences for the GBA
Back in February of 2006, most people looking for a hand-held experience were playing games on their DS, or their PSP. It’s no wonder, then, that a great game like Drill Dozer for the GBA was - and remains - overlooked ... Read Full Review
