About

All Grace and Savannah want is to make it in Tokyo, but what’s with all the scenesters, bomb balls, flower displays, and ninjas getting in their way?! And don’t even get me started on the UFO abductions, or how easy it is for a visit to Tokyo to end with getting sucked into outer space...

You’ll need lightning-fast reflexes and an eye for strategy to succeed in this fast-paced puzzle game, where live-action video blends seamlessly with wacky digital graphics. Throw and roll hapless bystanders into lines of people, trying to group three or more who wear the same color together so that they’ll form a clique and disappear. Form cliques and eliminate the lines you’re facing as fast as you can to progress through the game’s many stages. With two different play modes—Story Mode and Challenge Mode—this game’s got you covered whether you’re looking for quick gaming sessions or longer endurance challenges.

    In terms of replay value, the game has a relatively lengthy "story" mode (took me about two and a half hours to get through), an endless challenge mode, and an appropriately difficulty to navigate movie gallery mode. If you play just for the story, you may find the game's $8 price tag to be a bit hefty, but if you plan on playing challenge mode, you'll get your money's worth.

    Tokyo Crash Mobs is a creative reinvention of a 15-year-old puzzler design that isn’t perfect, but is certainly unique enough to earn your attention – especially since it’s only a $5.99 download. And if it doesn’t go on to become the eShop’s next bestseller? Well, it’ll still go down in history as one of the weirdest games to ever wear the Nintendo name.

    It's hard to ignore the fact that the 3DS has smarter and more inventive puzzlers - a handful of them are also on the eShop, in fact - but if you want a good old idea dressed up in garish new duds, Tokyo Crash Mobs should just about do the trick.

    Das Ganze ist zusammen mit den bizarren Videos und Spezialaktionen so herrlich abgedreht, dass man sich immer wieder gerne auf eine kleine Partie einlässt, auch wenn es in späteren Stufen extrem hektisch wird und auch mal unfair zugeht. Schade, dass man es versäumt hat, den Crash Mobs auch eine Mehrspieler-Komponente zu spendieren. So bleibt es beim Solo-Einsatz, der trotz magerer Kulissen und den genannten Problemen aber für unterhaltsamen Puzzlespaß sorgt.

    Tokyo Crash Mobs não eleva a série que carrega às costas a um novo patamar qualitativo e muito menos será um marco tecnológico. Ainda assim, é um título com conteúdo e carisma suficientes para justificar uma nova incursão de Puzz Loop na 3DS e a um preço convidativo.
