My local store has these 4 games for cheap:

Fortress (GBA)
Turbo Turtles (GBA)
Tang Tang (GBA)
Trouballs (GBC)

The reviews on gamefaqs look best for Turbo Turtle (and non-existant for Trouballs). I'm looking for a fun puzzle type game to play in short (ie 20~30 minutes) on a bus or between classes. If you've ever played any of these games, please weigh in. Whether you liked it or hated it, I would like to hear.

And no, I can't get all four... I am poor as hell right now.

Stay far away from Fortress. The premiss is ok (Rampart-ish with more of a Tetris-like falling block flair) but the game is increadibly short and has little, if any, replay value.

Turbo Turtle Adventure. Definitely. It's like Monkey Ball mixed with Chip's Challenge. Each level only takes a minute or two, and the game autosaves so you can play through it at your own pace. Go and get it.

As for the others, Fortress is a somewhat dull Tetris sort of game, and Tang Tang appears to be a reworking of Solomon's Key. I've never played Trouballs. I can't remember if it's a clone of Puzzle Loop or not, but if so, then it's pretty cool. Puzzle loop works kind of like Puzzle Bobble, but with bubbles moving toward you along concentric tracks.

Eh, I liked Fortress...although I wasn't very good at it...
