Heard the buzz that this was "Media Molocule's best game since LittleBigPlanet", and clearly they thought so too considering they dropped it right on time for Dreams to go free on PS Plus. Decided to pick up a boxed copy for myself to see what all the fuss is about, and was accelerated to having heard that this'll be their last major content push for Dreams, with the title set to reach EoL next month.
While I've not actually played any MM title post LBP so therefore can't really answer the question posed, this is a pretty solid game. Suffers from being very repetitive at times and the lack of checkpoints during certain multi-part puzzle levels being very punishing and time-consuming, but the rest of the game is a really cosy take on high-score, low-time type games with a fast arcade feeling while still being slow enough to really perfect the childhood nostalgia feeling of warmth the whole game is tinged in.
If you got Dreams free in August or can find a cheap used copy (and you're already a pre-existing fan of MM or the types of games outlined) then I'd say it's worth a shot. Just stick with it through some of the more tedious parts.
