Another Electroplankton review
This one's from the crew at Go
Nintendo and further strengthens what we already know - this is
one trippy musical experience you simply don't want to miss. "Electroplankton is THE most surreal experience I
have ever had with a game. It is the most relaxing, yet stimulating experience on the DS, and in ANY game yet."I've always thought that Burger Time was one of the more surreal games out there (giant hamburgers are quite terrifying), but it seems that some of the cute little amoeba things in Electroplankton can even top that. The Volvoice species, for instance, will listen intently as you speak into the microphone and will then repeat your voice back in different tones. You could essentially construct a little choir out of the variations on your voice while you think about the musical implications and what it must be like to have schizophrenia or a multiple personality disorder.
This is exactly the kind of game that makes you go "Ahh...so THAT's what Nintendo wanted to do with the DS." Look out for our MetaReview once more sites get their hands on the game.
