It's Mr. Pants is a Puzzle Game developed by Rare and published by THQ for the Game Boy Advance in 2004. It features Mr. Pants, the mascot of Rare's original website, as well as other wacky characters. Gameplay involves placing colored blocks on the game board, with the main goal being clearing out all shapes on screen, which is accomplished when they are at least 2x3 blocks in size. Completing enough puzzles rewards you with pictures in the gallery.


This game provides examples of:

  • Cosmetic Award: You earn trophies that show up on the title screen once you complete a mode.
  • Fanfare: Some winning horns play once you complete a puzzle.
  • Iconic Outfit: As indicated by his name, Mr. Pants is associated with the red pants he wears.
  • Mercy Mode: Failing a level three times grants you the ability to have Helpo give you tips on where to place blocks. He isn't always perfect, as he'll tell you a perfectly good move isn't correct.
  • Platinum Makes Everything Shinier: You get a platinum trophy if you can complete a mode on Special difficulty.
  • Timed Mission: You have to solve a puzzle within two minutes in wipeout mode.
  • Title Scream: The title character exclaims the game's title as the first logo shows up.
