The addition of multiplayer (and co-op even) really extends the shelf life of a rather good puzzle game.

It’s this ‘just one more go’ addiction that the very best classic puzzle games thrive on, but ZooCube sadly seems to lack.

IGN

ZooCube isn't as much a puzzle game as it is a game of quickness and endurance.

GameZone

While it definitely isn’t going to start a new trend in the puzzle gaming industry, it is a nice new concept and will quickly have you sucked into the deceivingly addictive gameplay.

Nintendojo

It’s a fresh concept on the falling pieces bit, and it’s fun too. That’s the most significant distinction.

GameSpy

While the addictive gameplay remains [from the GameCube version], all things animal are replaced with generic geometric shapes and run-of-the-mill sound effects.

Gaming Age

Zoocube isn’t quite as timeless as Tetris, but puzzle fans are sure to find themselves huddled in front of their GBAs for hours trying to make it to the next area.

Nintendo Power

A test of reflexes. [June 2002, p.154]

GameCritics

Under pressure of shapes coming at the block from multiple sides, it's sometimes hard to distinguish between the bluish-green hexagon and the greenish-blue hexagon, and to position them accordingly.

Nintendophiles

Making a game that requires the user to move a cube in all directions with a D-pad is tough. This causes a major flaw in the control scheme.
