Gameplay
[edit]Cool Boarders Pocket differs to other games in the Cool Boarders series. It features an isometric (overhead) view instead of a third-person perspective.[1] The game features two play modes a free-ride mode where the player navigates an obstacle course with no restrictions until they reach the goal, and a survival mode where the player snowboards through the obstacle course until they run out of health. The game allows the player to choose one of two characters; a female or male snowboarder.
Publication history
[edit]Part of the Cool Boarders series, the game was developed by UEP Systems for the Neo Geo Pocket Color and released in Japan in 2000.[1][2] Craig Harris of IGN commented that while the game originally had a US release date, this was cancelled along with all other "NeoGeo Pocket Color games, due to SNK USA closing its offices".[1]
