    A strict time limit also detracts from what's otherwise a fun game. [Nov 2008, p.104]

    Overall, Tornado is a good game marred by some intentional annoyances. It's a wonder why the developer chose to include them in the first place. Rent this one first.

    Tornado is fun for a bit, but once they start burying their great initial concept in a morass of extra moves and stupid levels (like a level where a giant bad tornado is bumping you around while the clock keeps on running), it loses its joy.

    If a little more time was spent in development ironing out these kinks, then Tornado could have been a solid form of competition for Katamari Damacy.

    Way too frustrating to control and lacks any sort of gameplay polish. [Mar 2009, p.82]

    Essentially a sub-Katamari game on Nintendo DS, Ignition's title offers a decent (if short) campaign for players, though the Bonus Mode is more compelling.

    The control system and mission structure makes it unfairly annoying at times. [Mar 2009, p.88]

    A neat idea, completely upended by the punishing difficulty. [Apr 2009, p.71]
