Thanks!
Yeah, I think everyone's converging on a solid 9 at this point. Jeremy Parish (at USGamer), who seems to share a lot of my sensibilities in gaming, gave it a 10, so I'm pretty psyched.
Glad to hear it. I knew this game was going to be great, and I can't wait to finally play it.
With time and just the right amount of patience, you’ll discover that Baboon! is one of Vita’s more pleasant surprises rather than simply existing as a bright, breezy and forgettable comic strip.
