Possibly the most relaxing game ever made.
When I first looked at this game I thought it was an interesting comcept, but nothing special. It seemed like one of these gimmicky toys that would force you to make the music IT wanted you to make... but how wrong i was. Instead you have the unlimited ability to produce some jazzy, haunting, mysterious and often beautiful music. It's so easy to pick up and play that even the most tone deaf can enjoy it. The visuals - though simple - can be astonishing at times, and the music - the star of the show - is just sublime. I highly recommend this game to everyone out there, but urge you to read the manual too, as it explains some really cool tricks (and also smells tremendous!). So PLEASE just buy it now!!
Music from the deep cloudy depths of the sea
When you have a DS and a good $40.00 Electroplankton's the game for you. Even if you don't like music this game'll getn you groovin' with it's funky jams, super shapes, dilarious dings, wonderful whistles, and more. With the ten electroplankton to choose from anything is possible. From the Tracing Tracies, to the Stupedous Vol-Voice it's all good. Each one has a unique ability like the Nano carps can make shapes and do this by listening to your voice, and the Hannenbows make different sounds according to the angle of the leaf. Plus not only can you preform with them, but they can preform for you, with Audiance mode just sit back and relax and let the little guys do their thing. This game get's addicting and there's no-telling what's in store for you. Electroplankton has a magnifinying circle at the top screen for you to check out the plankton's fabulous feautures. Not only can you do the same old, same old type of pattern over and over for some electroplankton you can press select to go to a different pattern. Like in the Lumiloops if you press select it'll transfer you to a different backrouned Lumiloop-world, although the Lumiloops look the same the sounds are different! The possibilities are endless in Electroplankton, and when som bodys down a kooky electroplankton beat is the PERFECT thing to cheer them up. Electroplankton is the best DS game I hav ever seen, It's got music, art, and the results of curiousity all in one. Remember a mysterious beat awaits you under the deep dark depths of the sea when you by Electroplankton.
The future of gaming?
Electroplankton. If you were justa regular person on the streets, and somebody wanted to sell you a copy of a game called that, you might not buy. But Electroplanton is a game that must be seen to be apreciated. Just looking at the game in a store window isn't enough. But if you can find the time to really see the game and possibly buy, you may be greately rewarded with an amzing Game Experience.
Essentally, Electroplankton is like 10 musical toys in one package. Each one has you using the TouchScreen and Microphone to make different kinds of music. The 10 different toys have you drawing lines, taping things, or just talking into the Mic. The game even has an Audience mode, so if you want to learn the game without reading a 50-page odd smelling booklet, you can simply see the game in action, then pick up as you go along.
This game does have a flaw. No saving. Yep, unlike normal music, once you make an awsome song, there's no way of saving it. And unfortunately, re-creating the song you made 10 minutes ago is ALOT harder than it sounds. Also, the game can get old after a little while. But, even after a day of doing nothing but gaming, this game is still good for a good old 5-minute play session.
