User Rating: 7.8 | Shunkan Puzz Loop DS
When I first played this game, it was in Wal-mart from their DS download center. I found it to be entertaining, and wanted to play more when my DS ran out of batteries. Later, I borrowed it from a friend, and my experience was different. Playing it on the way home, I found it to be simplistic and repetitive. It was still an interesting concept, but the entertainment value was diminishing rather quickly. Then I got home and played it. I lost some serious sleep that nignt. When I got into the quest mode, I realized how fun this game really is. Successfully mixing the formula up with different challenges, multiple rails, and more colors, Magnetica caused me to lose a lot of sleep the next few nights. However, after a while, I realized what type of game this is. This is a familiar game: all of us have played this kind at one point or another. This is the kind of game that you play for hours on end, then you realize, after countles hours, that nothing really changed. The formula stayed the same, and you kept doing the same thing over and over again. However, that does not take away from the addictive nature of this game, and I can reccommend it to anyone who enjopys an innovative puzzler, especially someone who is fairly new to the world of gaming.
