Puzzle fans that enjoyed the BABE movie series will find a lot to like here. BABE AND FRIENDS, a single-player puzzle game for Game Boy Color, has the little porcine hero guiding his herd through 40 levels that span such locations as the farm, the airport, and the city. In each level there is a checkered flag, to which Babe must take a herd. The sheep aren't very good at finding their own paths, so Babe has to walk them through every step of the way. Clear obstacles, set up roadblocks to make detours, and generally do what you have to in order to make a safe route for the sheep. Watch out for obstructions such as carts in the airport and rushing rivers on the farm. Detailed still-screens of all of Babe's friends appear between the levels to move the story along. A password save system is included if you need to take a break from the brain-bending action. Can Babe save the day once again?

Fun at the beginning - can frustrate younger playersMay 30, 2000
I bought this game for my 4 and 6 year old to play on a long trip as it looked like something my 4 year could have some success at. After the first couple of sequences, where you herd the sheep, it gets rather difficult. I, as an adult, enjoy the game, but it can get a little frustrating for my younger son as he can't get very far without needing some help.

Round 'Em Up PiggyFeb 11, 2000
This is an excellent game of solitaire. You, as Babe, must herd the sheep to its final destination. You travel from the farm to the big city airport which takes you to a hotel, hospital and finally back to the farm. There are little hints throughout the game. But I couldn't put it down.

It just goes on and on and on....Dec 04, 2001
By foxylady69 (...) I have no idea when this game will end. I just goes on and on, puzzle after puzzle. The key of Babe is to bark at the sheep and guide him past the flags. It may sound simple but believe me once you get into the abandoned house you have to think wisely so that your sheep wont fall down a hole or something. This game ables you to master the ability of thinking carefully before you make a move. Have fun!
