PSi writes: "Patapon is somewhat of an "ungame," in that it doesn't conform to most of the standard assumptions about what makes a game fun to play. At least in the gameplay department this is true, but the Patapon Front Office is very welcoming and makes you immediately comfortable with the tasks set before you. By all appearances, this could be a side-scrolling Action title. The visuals will draw comparison to any of the Japanese titles that use bold, graphic elements that look as much like cut paper as traditional sprites or computer animation. Solid colors and silhouettes are splashed against backgrounds that create a lot of depth through simple shading and perspective." 86/100
