    The fun, inventive style of play is downright addictive and the variety is excellent – just enough combat to keep things exciting and enough puzzles to flex your IQ without slowing you down.

    While there are not new concepts at work here they fit together to make a great game.

    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 charming platformer. While its relative simplicity was appreciated on the PSP, it feels a little underwhelming on the PlayStation 2.

    The improvements and additions make it a far more enjoyable prospect to newcomers than the PSP version was, and it may even be enough for those that gave up on the original to at least give the game a rental to see how things have improved.

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… Full Review »
