How can you go wrong with a game where the objective is to roll up your surroundings into a giant ball?
You can't! Katamari Damacy is a highly simplistic and addicting game with a retail price of only $19.99.
As you begin your journey rebuilding the cosmos that your father accidentally destroyed, you roll up small items such as tacks, pencils, mice, erasers, and batteries. As you progress through the game you'll roll up dogs, humans, cars, boats, islands, rainbows, Gods.. I think you get the idea. Every level will have a certain Katamari Ball size requirement, you need to meet this within the time allotted to pass the level.
The conrolling in this game is pretty unique, you pretty much only use the two analog sticks to control the movement of the ball, pushing both forward to move forward.. one up and one down to turn, and so forth.
My only real issue with this game was that the camera can be at a really bad angle at times, making it difficult to get out of a tight corner. Running into buildings or other objects too hard can cause pieces to fall off of your Katamari Ball, if you get stuck between objects this can be devastating! Besides all the minor issues, it's a really original and solid game. I highly recommend picking it up.
Be sure to check out We Love Katamari coming out early this September!
