However, Vicki has other plans in mind.
Teaming up with a friendly lion named Leo, she embarks on a quest to end Brigitte's reign once and for all.
Portal Runner is a 3D action game with puzzle-solving elements, and a spin-off in the Army Men series.
There are five worlds to travel to in the game.
Environmental puzzles, platform jumping and battles against enemies constitute the bulk of the gameplay.
Vicki can shoot arrows at the enemies, and strafe to avoid their fire.
Leo can be controlled either indirectly, by issuing orders to him, or in exclusive stages where he fights using his claws.
Some stages feature Vicki riding Leo.
About Game Boy Color
The Game Boy Color (1998) added a color screen to the original Game Boy formula while remaining backwards compatible with the entire existing cartridge library. Its colorful, semi-transparent cartridge shells make it a visually distinct platform for shelf collectors, and several late-cycle exclusives — released just before the Game Boy Advance took over — are notably harder to find complete today.
Gamevaro tracks Portal Runner for Game Boy Color 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 Portal Runner 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 GBC release dates back to 2001.

Rarity & condition

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.
