The Prince rolls his Katamari on PSP with the same pop madness and the same compulsive hoarder spirit. Twenty themed stages, cousins in ad hoc and a soundtrack as wonderfully unhinged as ever; nomadic Katamari is a treat.

Story
★★★★★
"Classic"
A tangy collage of everyday objects, minimalist shapes and dazzling pop colours: the aesthetic embraces a joyful, deliberate naivety. The absurd accumulation becomes a hypnotic, euphoric visual ballet. This graphic whimsy, unique and unbridled, makes the game an oddity as strange as it is irresistible.
Deliciously unhinged, Yu Miyake's music strings together jazz, bossa, j-pop and zany choirs in an explosion of good cheer. The unforgettable "Katamari on the Rocks" sets the tone for a sonic universe as offbeat as it is irresistible. This musical madness, unique and joyful, is the whole charm of this little video-game UFO.
Gameplay
"Solid"
Fun
"From the very first seconds"
Rolling a sticky ball that gathers everything in its path, from paperclip to building: this absurd, hypnotic concept delivers a unique satisfaction. Watching your katamari grow before your eyes and swallow ever bigger objects is strangely gleeful. Colourful, offbeat and cradled by an earworm soundtrack, a puzzle of skill as tender as it is irresistible.

Collector interest
The Japanese and Asian version of Me & My Katamari, the PSP port of Namco's cult sticky-ball series, with its inimitable humor and style. Multiplatform and common elsewhere, it owes its collecting interest solely to the scarcity of its Asian edition, little distributed outside the region, sought by specialized collectors, the content staying identical to the more widespread versions.
