Conker's Pocket Tales is an adventure video game developed and published by Rare and released in 1999. The game features a dual-format cartridge that serves as both a Game Boy and Game Boy Color game. The gameplay is presented from an overhead perspective where players control Conker the Squirrel. Unlike Conker's Bad Fur Day and Conker: Live & Reloaded, which are rated M video games (or, in Europe, rated 15+ (ELSPA) and 16+ (PEGI) respectively) featuring major amounts of violence and a different Conker with an entirely new personality, Conker's Pocket Tales is lighthearted in nature, and designed to appeal to younger gamers.
This is the only known game to be released as a rated E Conker game starring Conker, excluding Diddy Kong Racing which has Conker as a minor playable character who later became replaced by Tiny Kong in the remake.

There are three save files which shows a short cutscene of Berri throwing Conker a surprise party and becoming kidnapped.
Conker has the ability to use a slingshot by pressing the B button to defeat enemies. Like many video games, Conker can walk via using the D-pad and run by pressing the A button twice. The B button allows Conker to punch before obtaining the Slingshot. The START button pauses the game and shows the collection of slingshot ammo, the amount of presents, etc. The select button saves the game. There are also eight worlds total in this game.
Conker's girlfriend, Berri, decides to throw Conker a surprise birthday party. However, the Evil Acorn jumps out of the cake and kidnaps Berri along with stealing the presents. Conker has to save Berri and get his presents back. In the end, Conker rescues Berri, and the Evil Acorn gets blown away by an explosion in his base that Conker and Berri escaped from. When the Evil Acorn flies into space, he claims that he will return, but has not returned in any other Conker game yet.
The game received negative to mixed reviews from critics, as it holds a GameRankings average of 55% based on 4 reviews.[1] IGN gave the game an "okay" rating of 6 out of 10.[2]
