The gameplay revolves around rolling your katamari (sticky ball) around, attaching anything possible to it along the way. There’s also a subplot involving kids and their astronaut father, because why not? I don’t know what substances have been used in order to come up with this premise, but I want some. He tasks his princely son to create new stars and constellations by rolling a sticky ball onto everything it can find on Earth, all while listening to the most bizarre assortment of J-Pop tunes conceived by mankind, as well as learning how to say “hello” in Polish, Arabic, Spanish, Dutch, and so on. The premise is the weirdest thing ever: a very flamboyant King of All Cosmos has crashed into all of the stars in the sky for absolutely no reason, leaving it devoid of light and astral bodies.
This is the first time I’m playing a Katamari Damacy game and I was sold just a few minutes after I started the game. That goes without saying, but you’ll constantly shout “what’s going on?” when playing this game.
