In Photograph Boy, you take control of a kid who has just lost his parents, and
the aim of the game is to photograph weird and unusual events for a newspaper.
The more strange and weird are your pictures, and the more points you get !
Look for flying saucers, aliens and other really crazy things like
Michael Jackson, the Terminator, King Kong, Spiderman or even
the DeLorean car from Back to the future!!!. So you travel
through 9 levels and you must each time reach a certain amount of
photographs. Fail to do so and you will start all over again..
Some events just happen, and some others
can be activated by your characters like shooting the closed
windows from Level 2. A limited amount of
film requires you to think before taking new pictures, and obstacles
like bouncing balls or flower pots can make you drop some films when hit.
But don't worry, they usually don't resist the flash of your camera.
Finally, those special events can drop items, usually extra films but also
powers that will increase the size of your camera target.

I love this game ! It is a lot of fun and very tough too !
It sounds easy at first, but jumping over bouncing balls and flying
knives while trying to shoot
Spiderman climbing a wall is not an easy task !
Then there are those events than can only be unlocked with your
camera, they are everywhere and, even today, I still find some
that I had never seen before. Great game !
