DSiWare Reviews: Electroplankton:Trapy.
Another cut down retail game! Oh joy!
Yesterday, Nintendo released a suite of games (or apps) for the DSiware service called Electroplankton. You may know Electroplankton was a retail game. In the retail game, you chose from a variety of plankton and make music with them. The game has amazing visuals and its really fun. Sadly, you probably can't find it in stores nowadays. But Nintendo released each plankton as DSiWare games! Allow me to review Trapy.
Making music with Trapy is simple. You tap the Trapy you want to control, and draw a line. The Trapy will follow the line and make music. The sound will change if you draw a diffrent shape or draw in another direction. You can also press the left or right buttons on the D-Pad to make them go faster or slower and press A to return to the normal speed.
There are 2 game modes: Performance and Audience. In performance, you can make your own music freely. In performance, the Trapy will perform for you. A major flaw in this game is you can't save your songs, so if you create a brilliant piece of music and you can't stop listining to it, and suddenly your DSi shuts down, you can't save the game.
Conclusion
Electroplankton Trapy is a fun music game with spectacular visuals. The audience mode is an o.k addition, but it dosen't save this game from o.k-ness.
I give this game 5.5 out of 10.
