100Undeniably fun. It's a twitchy test of coordination and precision that'll make a monkey out of any pro, and it's a hard tgame to master and an even harder game to put down. [Nov 2001, p.141]
-
The most fun I've ever had playing a puzzle game before.
-
100It is likely that a few months from now, Super Monkey Ball will be one of the few launch titles that you still will be playing, especially if you have friends to play with.
-
100The best party game in history.
-
98SMB is unique, fun and, most importantly, as playable every day as it was the day you bought it.
-
91Packed to the rafters with ticklish problem-solving, as you have to complete your goals and collect bananas. [GamesMaster Magazine]
-
91The best arcade-style action / party game to come around in ages.
-
It's downright fun and you'll find yourself having a hard time pulling yourself away from it. While the single-player feels a little underdeveloped, you will play it enough to unlock the fun mini-games.
-
90This is the perfect game to really see who has the patience and stamina to go all the way.
-
Once again, the combination of Sega and monkeys has resulted in an extremely addicting game. Don’t pass this game up.
-
Even though this title screams party game, it’s much more fun to play alone than, say, a Mario Party title. Old school is definitely back, and it’s a heck of a good time playing it on a GameCube.
-
90What's so super about SMB? The added multiplayer games that turn this enhanced arcade port into one of the the best party games ever.
-
88Solid graphics, addictive yet accessible gameplay, and some of the best multiplayer action on the system make it a winner.
-
85Yes, it's a frustrating game, to be sure. But it’s the warm, fuzzy kind of frustrating.
-
For a game that's been billed as a modest little action game, that's a hell of a lot of replay value. [Nov 2001, p.116]
-
One of the best next generation console games out there right now for any platform.
-
83With both its finely tuned single-player experience and addictive multiplayer one, Super Monkey Ball has sleeper hit written all over it.
-
Here’s a lesson in elegant game design...as pure and enjoyable a game as any in the GameCube launch lineup.
-
It sounds like a game doomed from the start, but ultimately turns out to be a stroke of genius.
-
May just be the best party game ever made. [Dec 2001, p.254]
-
A dangerously addictive diversion to monkey around with.
-
80An exceptional game based on a simple concept; some of the later levels will eat you for lunch. [Feb 2003, p.96]
-
80With the exception of the very tight turns in the game, it's as easy as shelling peanuts once you get a few practice rounds in.
-
80The extremely clean graphics, married to addictive, simple gameplay are enough to recommend this title.
-
80If you don’t mind unique ideas and simple game play, then you can’t go wrong with Super Monkey Ball.
-
It's weird, wacky and highly entertaining, and comes loaded to the brim with extras than only enhance its luster.
-
75If you are looking for some quick fun for you and your girlfriend pick this one up, but for anything else, the monkeys are only good for a rental at best.
-
Not unlike "Crazy Taxi," you’ll have fun every time you play, but the concept gets tiring pretty quickly and you’ll want to step away for a while. [Dec 2001, p.83]
