Tecmo has decided to venture where few PSP developers have gone before. Tokobot, believe it or not, is a brand new franchise exclusive to the PSP—and it’s only $30. The game is a throwback to the days of the pure platformer, but is marred by control issues and been-there-done-that gameplay. While we applaud Tecmo for freshening-up the PSP library, we’re still waiting for that game that will make all non-PSP owners jealous—and no, as complete as it is, Lumines isn’t it.
Review sample:
GamePro (90/100) - “Tokobot is a technological treat, with virtually zero loading, crisp colors, and a pleasingly quirky little soundtrack.”
IGN (75/100) - ”[Everything] about this game feels like it’s foundation for a great sequel rather than its own must-play game.”
GameSpy (50/100) - “Divested of any real spark, Tokobot runs out of steam quickly, mires itself in mediocrity, and never manages to rise above it.”
