LocoRoco oozes charm for days, but the gameplay is a little too singularly focused for its own good.

So simple and challenging at the same time that it just keeps players coming back for more.

It's vibrant, cheery and serves no other point than to make you smile. But, like candy, Locoroco also ends sooner than you want it to end. Still, it's fantastic while it lasts and just the kind of game you want in your pocket.
