The ongoing series from AMCBetter Call Saulhas recently sprung a wealth of fan-created content as the finale is quickly approaching. This has ranged from theories online for how the series is going to end, what seemingly insignificant actions of characters might mean, all the way to artwork and animations made to place protagonistSaul Goodman in other worlds likeAce Attorney.
One of these recent fan projects has instead recreatedBetter Call Saulitself as a game, built to have the look and feel of a title made for the classic Game Boy console. This doesn’t take the form of a finished game that can actually be played, but the clip does give an idea of how this game might have played across several levels and genres if it ever released.

Created by artist Lumpy Touch, the video shows a number of different levels for thisBetter Call Saulgame, each following a different genre that all fit with the old-school theme. One of the first “playable” segments seems to be the most at home on aGame Boy cartridge, showing Saul Goodman being controlled through a platformer. As the clip continues, the genre switches multiple times, ranging from a sniping level to a scene pulled right out ofPunch Outpitting Saul against Howard Hamlin.
This isn’t the first piece of pop-culture content that Lumpy Touch has re-imagined in a classic pixel format. They’ve also recreated theMorbiusfilm as aMinesweeperclone titledMorbsweeper,for example. Similar to this recent re-imagining ofBetter Call Saul, much of Lumpy Touch’s content is mostly comedic while also showing off a high degree of talent in crafting and animating pixel art. However, it doesn’t appear that many of the artist’s creations ever see a true release, even if they are centered around gaming styles. So a fully releasedBetter Call Saulgamelikely isn’t on Lumpy Touch’s to-do list.
With the series finale coming soon, this likely won’t be the last piece ofBetter Call Saulfan-content coming within the next month or so. However, this is still one of the more impressive pieces that fans have shared to highlight some memorable moments from the series. If the finale is as impressive as previous episodes fromSeason 6 ofBetter Call Saulhave been, then there will likely be a huge influx from the fan community revolving around however the series ends.
Better Call SaulSeason 6 is airing on Netflix now.
