Electroplankton

A game for the musically inclined, will keep you entertained for an hour or two

User Rating: 7.3 | Electroplankton DS

Electroplancton is basically a music-maker in a DS cart. If you arnt into music, you might try each of the 10 plancton, who all have a different way of making music. For the more musically inclined like myself, I spent a few hours making cool beats and loops.

After you've had a good go at all the plancton, you may never pick up the game again! Being a game with no real story, plot or unlockable features it makes it hard to play it again, and even if you do, you'll only spend a couple of minutes and realize how pointless it is.

If you happen to wander across this game, be sure to rent it first, then you will get all the gameplay you ever will out of it, and costs a heck of a lot less!
