Playing Katamari Damacy for the first time through its remastered Reroll release was nothing short of pure bliss from start to finish. It is a quirky and nonsensical game about you playing a cute and tiny green-colored prince sent out to roll up everything you see into a ball – a katamari – which is then turned into a star to be put into the night sky as King of All Cosmos had accidentally destroyed them all. Everything from the unique dual-stick control scheme, the absurd cutscenes, to the wacky music turns it into joyous experience that is unlike any other. I had long been aware of the franchise, but actually playing it was something else. There is a natural escalation from a miniscule to gargantuan ball as you play. It’s unique, it’s funny and it’s a game that I wholeheartedly recommend anyone to play if they get the chance to. So, color me surprised when I played its equally beloved sequel We Love Katamari and found it to be a far departure from what I loved about the first game.
