The Powerpuff Girls: Paint the Townsville Green features brawny Buttercup, who fights and destroys enemies, while the other two girls are in reserve for superattacks. The side-scrolling game has multiscreen maps in which our hero dodges obstacles, collects power-ups, destroys enemies, rescues friends, and ultimately fights the featured villains to save Townsville. The villainous Gangrene Gang and Fuzzy Lumpkins use brute force, and can only be answered in kind. Players can collect and trade electronic game cards with a friend's copy of the game via the separately sold Game Boy link cable, as well as engage in two-player head-to-head action. Use secret passwords to unlock new game features, including trading cards and hidden powers.

MediocreJan 02, 2001
The Powerpuff Girls Games aren't as good as they should be. They are pretty mediocre side scrolling games but still can be fun. The major annoyance with the game is that if you fall into a pit of water, you have to start from the beginning and recollect all the items you've found. If you're a hardcore gamer you will fly through these games. Most of the fun comes from using the passwords and unlocking new playable characters (like the Mayor!). Anyway, if you're a really big Powerpuff Girls fan you'll enjoy the games but otherwise I suggest you take a look at some of the better GBC games.

Better than Bad Mojo Jojo but still not greatFeb 28, 2001
This game doesn't really capture the spirit of feisty Powerpuff Girl Buttercup or the show. You die if you land in a pool of water, Buttercup has limited ammunition for her laser vision, and she doesn't fly for very long(so unlike the cartoon). Each level looks nearly the same as every other part of the same level, making it hard to find navigate. Still, this game is better than Bad Mojo Jojo. In Paint the Townsvile Green's favor the characters, from Buttercup to villains, look pretty good. There is more of an emphasis on fighting, and it's a lot harder to get lost than in Bad Mojo Jojo. I, a fan of those doll-like Powerpuff Girls, enjoyed it, but perhaps the average game player wouldn't.

I love the PowerPuff GirlsOct 20, 2001
I might be a little bias since my daughter loves PowerPuff Girls but she loves the game and has not been able to put it down.

good way to kill timeAug 14, 2002
In this game you play as buttercup and beat up enemies. It's pretty challenging because the levels make you go all different directions;If you go down one passageway, you have to come back and go down another.This game takes forever because it has all these secret levels that are even more challenging. The great thing about this game is that you gan go anywhere you like. If you enjoy challenging games that test your patience and keep you guessing, you'll really like this game.

powerpuff girls! Girl Power!Dec 12, 2000
This game rules! The Powerpuff girls are on a mission-to paint the town green. But there are really evil bad guys to defeat along the way. But in the end, girlpower takes over, and all is well again.
