About

Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi: Genie & The Amp sends two pop stars on a cross-time quest to collect musical notes for their stalled album. Players take control of Ami or Yumi as they jump through 10 distinct eras like Ancient Rome and the Wild Wild West. The game blends puzzle solving with action sequences and boss battles. Each level requires navigating environments to gather notes while fending off obstacles. Up to two players can team up wirelessly for co-op play or take turns in single-player mode. Mini-games and collectibles add extra layers to the adventure. The game stands out for its quirky humor and variety of settings. While it doesn’t break new ground mechanically, the mix of time-traveling levels and cooperative play keeps things engaging. Released in 2006, it remains a niche pick for fans of the Cartoon Network series. The wireless multiplayer feature was ahead of its time for DS games of that era.
