If you’re thinking about purchasing Explodemon!, you basically need to ask yourself if you enjoy the platforming genre at a basic level. If you do, it might be a new classic in your yearly speed run repertoire. If you don’t, do some looking around before you buy it, because other than a heap of oddball charm, it doesn’t really stray from normal genre conventions.
A.J. says: "As Sony's first system capable of downloading games, the PlayStation 3 sure had a phenomenal library. Here, I count down ten buried treasures that you may not have heard of but are worth playing before you put your PS3 on Craigslist."
Explodemon combines the retro style of 16-bit platform games and Japanese action titles with the upgradable skills, hidden collectables and clever puzzles from more modern titles. Players use Explodemon's self-destructive nature to combat enemies and fly through the air, all the while solving a huge variety of physics-based puzzles.
