Repeating my We Love Katamari review here, because this likewise combines rewardingly tricky gameplay with charming presentation & stellar music. Again, a simple, cartoonish art style means the game still looks great 15 years later, and the characters & stages instantly jump out at you with loud, colourful personalities. There's a decent difficulty curve, and although a lot of the minigames are sequels, they often improve on earlier levels in fun & interesting ways. To nitpick, I had quibbles with extremely strict timing or my touch screen's struggle to tell one kind of tap from another - the game's still reasonable enough to get through, with the option to skip a level if you're struggling after a few goes, but it's annoying if, like me, you're going for 100% on the Superb & Perfect grades. Speaking of, I'd prefer the ability to get a Perfect anytime rather than having a limited window to do so, but that's a smaller bugbear given the added challenge that creates. In any case, between the amazingly catchy music & endearing aesthetic, this is still a 5-star game for me in terms of the pure uplifting joy it brings me.

Fave minigames: Glee Club; Blue Birds; Crop Stomp; Munchy Monk; Love Lab; Frog Hop; Space Soccer; Karate Man; Glass Tappers (and this is a trimmed down list, this game seriously has so many bangers)
