Drill Dozer

Drill Dozer, a phenomenal Game Boy Advance title released in 2005, developed by Game Freak (yep, the same folks who bring you Pokémon). But forget catching 'em all, here you're all about grinding 'em all (or, well, the environment).
Drill Dozer puts you in the cockpit of the titular Drill Dozer, a massive vehicle armed with a powerful drill. You play as Jill, a tough-as-nails mechanic and the daughter of Doug, the leader of the Red Dozers, a group of... well, not-so-lawful treasure hunters. When their precious Diamond Engine is stolen by the Skullkers (the bad guys, obviously), Jill revs up her Drill Dozer and embarks on a thrilling, subterranean adventure to retrieve it.
What makes Drill Dozer so special? It's got a unique gameplay mechanic. Forget jumping, forget shooting; you're drilling your way through the world, utilizing the rumble feature built into the GBA cartridge to feel every rotation. You'll be drilling through walls, enemies, and puzzles, upgrading your drill, and even using it to solve environmental challenges.
