    Brimming with character and a knowing wit, Monsters is almost an essential purchase. With a focused appeal, and an immediate, addictive set of mechanics, this is (probably) the best PSP Mini game to date.

    A platformer that admits it (probably) doesn't need an epic story.

    A wonderfully unique and well presented title, the presentation is wonderful, the action fast paced and the experience is an addictive one.

    Monsters (probably) stole my princess is an addictive game, which is way too short unfortunately. You will spend some time trying to get the top scores and the perfect combos, so because of this and its low price, it's definitely worth a shot.

    I wished for more than five levels, but it is a mini game after all. This title is definitely worth its low price, in fact it is ideal for playing on the go. The difficulty is fairly high, but is much fun too, just a fantastic mix

    Monsters (Probably) Stole My Princess is a great game. It's funny, pretty, and addictive if you love platforming. If you're mad enough to try and unlock every medal and nail every level, you'll be playing this one for quite sometime.

    Into cult classic territory. [July 2010, p.107]

Score attack is extremely easy (dont double jump the enemy and jump on every platform). Character and level designs look good, but with every level its the same boss with a new skin. There are no obstacles in the game either, its you and the monster. The games not even funny, i chuckled at the title but having him repeat the same joke over and over again sucks. There are 12 awards and 8 collectibles in the scrapbook (might provide a bit of humor) but its a really small package. Don't expect a full game, but a 10 dollar mini game. Be very cautious when purchasing.… Full Review »

Veteran adventure gamers will burn through it in 2 A truly great indie game, full of style and humor (almost like a point and click cartoon). Veteran adventure gamers will burn through it in 2 or 3 hours (some parts will still be fairly maddening), but anyone else might take days to work through it all, short as it is. Still, for 10 dollars it's quite worth it. I can only hope the sequel is a bit longer!… Full Review »
