    A fun childish game when you're looking to kill some time. Roll a ball down different pathways avoiding obstacles to get the goal line.

    This game is a remake of the first three Super Monkey Ball games with updated graphics and extra content. It has over 300 stages of rolling monkeys in balls through various obstacles and challenges. It also has 12 party games and many Sega characters to unlock. It is fun and nostalgic, but also frustrating and repetitive at times. The physics and sound are not as good as the originals. I rate it 4 stars out of 5.

    We loved Super Monkey ball for Game cube. The one the made for Wii was never as good so it is awesome that this takes you back to the original game. The graphics are far behind new games but the nostalgia is awesome and it is still a fun game. It was fun to have our kids wanting to play it even though it does not compare to the level of realism of their newer first person shooter games. So nice to have a break from those games that are fun.

    For the price and the massive amounts of levels throughout this game it was a pretty sweet deal but after playing the game also with some annoyance too. The levels vary with their quality some being fun others not soo much and others with control issues that will leave you with a headache and annoyance.Do I regret getting the game?no but it's also not one I'll play continuously either.At most it's worth playing when you want to pass the time but not one I can see either myself or other games playing for hours on end.

    You can't go wrong with Monkey Ball and with this being a remake of 1 and 2 but with new cutscenes and such it's fantastic. There are things I miss from the original but this is still one of the best Monkey Ball games to date.

    This little gem of a classic franchise is now at a great and affordable price for the Switch. It can be played on the TV or in portable mode, but multiplayer is our favorite because of the many types of games. If you need another title to add to your collection, this puzzle like game should work wonders.

    Seems to be a slow learning curve and high frustration for my kid. Nice features but miss some of the original touches they should’ve included

    Good simple game that can be more challenging if you want it to. Purchased for 6 yr old and although they like it, they need help with some areas.

    I thought this was going to be a remaster of the older mini games and story mode. The mechanics are different. Not bad. Not great.
