Monkey Madness Review

Pros: Great music, amazing programming, FUN
Cons: Not in full screen mode, sometimes hard to spot a potential line, no description of upgrades
Amazing! STAFF PICK MATERIAL!
gfx- This game is very good in the graphics department, each tile has many colours, and shimmers in the sun. The bars are amazing and a product of great programming. it's cool when the tiles break,and when you click a block, it makes a nice rectangle around it so you can see it clearly. No problems here.
Sound- There were multile pop sounds, explosions (for the explosive blocks) and the background music was good and fit into the game very well.
Gameplay- This was outstanding. The game requires you to swap tiles to make a row or column of 3 or more, the switching blocks was a great add-in to the game, and a show of how good the programming is. It is much fun to start a chain reaction, leading to an explosion for a massive combo.
Story- There wasn't any, but this is a puzzle game, it doesn't need any.
Interface- The menu's were well done, with the falling menus at the start, but i thought a better description of the various upgrades would be nice.
The mouse was used well, and the game wasn't lacking because of the interface
Overall-This is an amazing puzzle game. One of the few that has kept my attention. The great mix of all the elements of a good game were here, and made the game good, you obvoiusly put a lot of effort into this, and it payed off. Very nice job. If you ask me, it has staff pick potential.
6/6

I wouldn't put it being hard to spot potential lines in the cons, because, well, some people are better at these games than others.
