TGH Writes: "At first glance, Tokyo Crash Mobs is an awkward meeting of live-action with game mechanics. It’s not made any easier to understand thanks to its simplistic story, told entirely through short scenes of the two female protagonists who seem to be incredibly diligent about getting to the front of lines and expressing their dislike for large crowds or lines in general. Underneath it, though, is an easy to pick up and play matching game. But does it have what it takes to really stand out on the 3DS, or should it go down with the rest of those forgotten eShop titles?"
Gi - Tokyo Crash Mob is a puzzle game for the Nintendo 3DS. It was developed by Mitchell Co. as well as Nintendo SPD (Software Planning and Development) and then published by Nintendo. Originally released via the Nintendo eShop on Jan 17th, it was one of the first games for the Nintendo 3DS and even Nintendo for 2013. A bizarre “storyline” mixed with a series of increasingly challenging puzzles gives Tokyo Crash Mob a hectic and disorienting feel that will take some getting used to on the player’s end. The game has a very addictive quality as well as some new ideas that add to the spice of the puzzle genre as a whole.

'You can find plenty of worthwhile 3DS discounts this week, like these first-party deals.'
From the review: "Quirk and more quirk can't really save this Zuma clone from being relegated to the depths of the 3DS eShop. Tokyo Crash Mobs is a game you've got be really interested in to get any mileage out of it after completing its lackluster story mode."
