The Land Before Time - Game Boy Color

Way before stone age man was just a glint in a randy monkey’s eye, there was a prehistoric world, full of friendly dinosaurs happily padding around, minding their own business, munching their way through the lush vegetation and forest in their beloved Green Valley. This is The Land Before Time, last seen on the PlayStation with the prefix ‘Return To The Great Valley’, and now available for Game Boy Color.

Anyway, back to that part about friendly, happy dinosaurs…all is not what it appears to be and things aren’t as harmonious as they could be. So what happened?

Trapped in the ‘Mysterious Beyond’, home of the dreaded Sharptooth, is a cute dinosaur by the name of Littlefoot who, with a merry throng of chums, is trying to make it back to the safety of Green Valley.
