    Easy to pick up, hard to put down. [Nov 2006, p.82]

    It's hardly the Playstation 2's perfect platformer - it's a bit too linear, and it's obviously got a slant towards a younger audience with the puzzle solving at points - but Tokobot Plus is a game enjoyable by young and old alike.

    [A] half-assed port. The camera is still a problem, controls are still awkward, and save point restarts are still a pain in the butt. However, unlike on the PSP, there are fewer excuses for these flaws on its more established big brother.

    A decent title with challenging puzzles that will reward your patience and dedication. It's probably best as an extended rental but some of you might find that it's worth the full price of admission.

    This really does deserve a proper sequel - but on the PSP where it belongs. [Feb 2007, p.76]

    Feels a bit half-arsed in execution. A missed opportunity, all in all. [Feb 2007, p.77]

The game play is pretty fun with a lot of puzzles and platforming action for any seasoned player. Although the camera can be very finicky at times, and the voice acting can be laughable bad at times, Thus is a very good game and a very great hidden gem and I whole heartedly recommend it to anyone who owns a PS2… Expand
