  • Summary: Adventurers discover that in Super Monkey Ball Adventure their monkey balls now have a whole host of new abilities, including sticking to walls, hovering and the ability to become invisible. Super Monkey Ball Adventure also contains 50 new puzzle levels and six new party games to challenge gamers of all ages. Players can select Aiai, Meemee, Gongon, or Baby to adventure their way through five different Monkey Ball Kingdoms to complete quests by solving puzzles and ultimately uniting the feuding Monkey Kingdoms. The original Monkey Ball characters of Aiai, Meemee, Gongon & Baby are back. They are joined by a host of new characters, including a Prince and Princess, who are being kept apart by a feud between their kingdoms. The couple run away to Jungle Island where they enlist the help of the Super Monkey Ball gang, to unite the feuding Monkey Kingdoms and defeat the Naysayers who have sucked all the joy from the Monkey Ball world.

  1. There's so much packed into this you'll be playing it long after you've completed the main story mode - and you can't say that about many PSP games now, can you?
  2. We can recommend the multi-player experience, but if you'll be playing it single-player, there are far better platformers out there. [July 2006, p.60]

    It does progress into an average platformer and a good attempt at a new direction for the series, but average it still is. There are better PSP titles to be bought and played first.
  4. 48
    The Super Monkey Ball games are popular today partly because of their simplistic nature. They are designed for everybody to enjoy. And yet, Super Monkey Ball Adventure throws all of this out of the window for a half-baked storyline and a hub world separated by load times and marred by technical inconsistencies.

    This game is great. The gameplay is timed well. You'll be playing it for a decent amount of time before you finish and then you still won't want to put it down. It's so addicting, cute monkeys and magic...what more oculd you want? The only gripe I have is the really bad camera control. it is to your disadvantage all the time. All in all I love this game.
