You only press two buttons, that's it! There's not much else to the gameplay. To make matters worse, the game lacks any real challenge; you can barely die. The childish music can get annoying at times, and the game offers little replay value unless you're determined to replay every level to find the last hidden LocoRocos and those little black characters what does not make much fun because you dont get any real reward for collecting them. On the plus side, the art style is unique, it's something you don’t often come across, and the graphics are pretty decent for a PSP game. In the end, while this game isn’t a complete failure, it certainly doesn't live up to the hype from back then. In my opinion, as unique this game might be, it is only good for short sessions because it quickly becomes boring and underchallenges your brain with pushing only two buttons.

Another tedious abstract platformer- you awkwardly wobble and bobble around stages collecting items and avoiding damaging obstacles. What fun and child-like whimsy this game harbours on the surface is quickly severed by the desire for 100% completion. There's otherwise absolutely no challenge with this game, so aiming for all the collectibles is the only real fun there is, and it's just not built for it. You are fighting the camera, the strict level design, the bad enemy placements, and above all- the physics. If Locoroco didn't try to have a quirky, gimmick design to appeal to everyone, whilst simultaneously offering a more hardcore element, I'd let it slide, but the frustration is tiresome and unending. The music also doesn't leave much to the imagination; a lot of one-note patterns so short and **** that Atari 2600 music stands a better chance of keeping any enjoyment afloat. The game wears out its welcome before World 1 is even over, yet you get 5 Worlds' worth, for such an incredibly shallow and stifling game, which is madness. What charm and style the game has is very quickly marred by the execution of all of it; it's more fun to gawp at than actually indulge yourself, and this is something most people will realise in the 15 first seconds they take control.

One of the best games for PSP. Great controls, Innovative gameplay, colorful, cheerful, and creative levels with cheerful and funny characters. A wonderful soundtrack. One of the best games for lifting your spirits.
