- “Each area of the game features 2-8 of these games, so they make up the bulk of the gameplay.”
- “Only one new mechanic is ever introduced (bombs), but it shows up inconsistently and doesn't add much to the experience.”
- “As usual, there are no new mechanics and no difficulty scaling.”
- “These minigames just aren't very fun to play, especially when the levels don't ever present any new mechanics or increase in difficulty much--at least not consistently.”
- “As with the first set of minigames, no new mechanics are ever introduced and the difficulty never increases.”
- “With such dreadful gameplay, I probably wouldn't give the game a much higher score even if it had amazing music or visuals.”
