This has been nothing short of a beautiful game! I am about halfway through and I'm already sad that it might end soon. This is your typical logic puzzler. However what makes it unique is the fact that I kind of care for the characters? I'm like oh so Steve hates smells, so for Sean who forgot to shower probably shouldn't be sat next to Steve, but Steve wants to sit by the window which is taken by Amy, but Amy wants to sit alone. So forth and so forth. It's cute, silly, and all around a fun time. The game is gorgeous, the UI is fantastic, and the color palette is cute. My only complaint is that it might end too soon, the sensitivity is a little much (was able to turn it down in the settings) and I wish there was a randomizer or so, so I could continue the story on the few levels I really enjoy. I usually wait for a sale but for $10, I'm enjoying every minute.

This is Super Monkey Ball 3 in everything but the name. Tight controls, good physics engine and hard levels? SMB is back! Each level has 3 different missions to do. (Speed Run, Collect X Many Bananas, and collect the Golden Banana) You can play through Story mode up to 4 Players Locally AND Online. While there is no Monkey Target, Bowling, etc. There are some lovely additions to the Mini Game Mode, Race, Goal Rush, Banana Hunt, Ba-Boom (Cops vs Robbers) and Robot Smash. You can play these locally up to 4 players or 16 players online. Where you can compete and gain points for each season to get different customization items. Like Banana Mania there's lots of customization items to collect. This is a HUGE step forward for the series and I'm hopeful for its return to the spotlight. I haven't had this much fun in a Monkey Ball game Since 1/2/Deluxe.
