    The game still retains a brilliant sense of balance and an intrinsic "just one more try" feeling, and now there's more of it.

    Pixeljunk Monsters was a fantastic addition to the PSN library, and while Encore builds upon the foundation well enough, the challenge can be more than off-putting to the casual player.

    For the $6 that PixelJunk Monsters Encore will cost to buy, you get a bunch of new levels, some gameplay improvements, some new music, and the satisfaction that your PixelJunk Monsters fun can stay alive for a while longer.

    The new levels are fun and addictive, and the gameplay is as hypnotic as ever. Just be ready to be challenged, because while it looks innocuous enough, Encore puts up a good fight.

    Pixeljunk Monsters is easily one of the most addictive co-op games available in the console market. It seamlessly blends the ease of simple controls with devilishly "just one more try" addictive gameplay. I can guarantee that you'll spend a very many hours attempting to "rainbow" every level! For those who enjoy a little more competition, your scores can uploaded via the PSN to a Global Leaderboard to show off and gives it that extra layer. A welcome addition to any gamers collection, whether hard core or casual. Well done Pixeljunk!… Expand
