Game Boy Advance · 2006
About this game
Barnyard is an offering from THQ based on the movie of the same name from Nickelodeon.
You arrive at the farm as a newbie cow and must complete quests and earn respect in order to win keys that allow you to advance through the barnyard map.

Movement is accomplished with the WASD or arrow keys, while the mouse controls the camera angle.
Other keys access your inventory and the map, allow you to aim and squirt milk at opponents (even when you play as a boy!), and confirm menu selections.
The map is fairly large and there are plenty of things to do beyond the missions and quests your fellow animals assign you.
There are places to explore, barrels to break, and minigames like whack-a-raccoon, bowling, and bicycle races.
As you play, you need to keep up your stamina, which decreases as you run around the farm.
A good sleep is important; you need to be rested to fight off marauding raccoons and coyotes.
And do remember not to let the Farmer catch you standing on two feet!
About Game Boy Advance
Nintendo's Game Boy Advance (2001) offered near-SNES-level graphics in a handheld and became a home for excellent ports as well as original titles across nearly every genre. GBA cartridges are generally durable and plentiful, making it an approachable platform for new collectors, though a few late-release RPGs and limited exclusives have become genuine chase items.
Gamevaro tracks Barnyard for Game Boy Advance with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Barnyard to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GBA release dates back to 2006.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
