unlabelledView post →On it's own this game is okay, however as a remake, it ruins what made the original special. For one, they removed the score system which ruins the entire gameplay loop that made the originals work so well to begin with. The controls are far less precise than they did in the original, making the game harder to control. This game also looks far worse than it did on GameCube, lacking most of the graphical effects. You also have to pay $5 just to get the og soundtrack. 2/10 You'd be better off…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You can switch to Sonic and it swaps the bananas with rings, with the sound and everything. 10/10.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The controls / physics are so bad it feels like an insult to fans of the original games. Though having a circular gate for the control stick would be fine, the original floors were designed to be played with a square gate, like the original games had. Consequently, boosting tech is non-existent, the fastest movement is holding directly up, and floors that should not be hard are hard for such a BS reason. The physics are also non-deterministic which makes developing strategies for some floors…

unlabelledView post →I don't think they'll ever make as good of a game as they did with Super Monkey Ball 2 for the Gamecube. Despite that, I still want to support SMB, especially the more challenging and fun games such as this. Playing fan-made levels from the SMB Workshop discord is super fun if you haven't heard of the SMB modding community before. I will say the physics in this game are noticeably different, if you're someone who is skilled enough at the original games, you will notice the subtle differences…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Christmas 2001 my family got a GameCube and one of the games was Super Monkey Ball. I had a lot of fun playing Super Monkey Ball with my siblings and seeing this available on PC was a pleasant surprise. This is an enjoyable game with more to it that meets the eye. I highly recommend Super Monkey Ball.

unlabelledView post →I came for the wonderfully janky "Monkey Physics" of my youth, and I found instead - a remade game in Unity with the same levels, but the physics play a little different. They're better, albeit still quirky, but it's different and that's jarring at first. But if you can get past it (or never played it before anyway), it's a still a great platforming game with some excellent party games (except my favourite, Monkey Target, is way harder to play than before. Not impossible, but tries to put you…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm honestly pretty disappointed. It was nice to recognize and play a bunch of stages that I played from the original Gamecube version, but this one lost a lot of charm that the originals had. It's basically a generic, watered-down version of the original. The cutscenes in Story Mode were replaced with very boring and underwhelming slideshows (yes, the original cutscenes were cheesy as hell, but they still had charm), the soundtrack is hard to hear and uninspired, the mini games play horribly…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →10/10 Amazing game! First of all, thank you, Sega, for releasing a remake of the first three Super Monkey Ball games for PC. Even though it plays differently from the original games, it's great that newcomers can now experience this game. The story mode is hillarious, the graphics look fantastic, the soundtracks are amazing and the party games are enjoyable. The gameplay is much better than Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz HD, but it's slightly worse than the Gamecube games. Don't get me wrong,…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A questionable remake of very good games. This is the best monkey ball available on steam and it gets on sale enough to make it worth a purchase then, but you are missing out on the original physics and atmosphere. I don't know why they did what they did to the story. The cutscenes are downright annoying.

First they removed all the amazing cutscenes from the singleplayer story and replaced with generic PNGs (Which makes me angry about it), the mini games are Ass in this…
