Electroplankton

The game has no point. There is no aim. Aside from pure musical niceness.

Game Review by JW | 13 Oct 2006
The DS, being a Japanese invention, has a plethora of crazy and innovative Japanese games to go with it, and Electroplankton is probably it's most typically Japanese title to date. The game has no point. There is no aim. Aside from pure musical niceness, and there is no actual way to finish the game, but that in itself is an asset. Combined with excellent touch pad utilisation, this game is a true pick up and play experience, and will make any non-gamer smile and giggle with glee within twenty seconds of picking it up - brilliant. Electroplankton is a blend of ten mini-games, each very different but very simple, and all enable everyone to create some awesome music. Not all are amazing, but the ones that are, well they really are amazing. There is not much else to be said - play it and you'll understand what I mean. My only qualm would be the price, at the minute a little steep for what is essentially a brilliant distraction. (Josh Wilson)
