Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure is another action adventure sensation. The game simply assures classy entertainment with suspense filled adventure. Its gameplay has been kept distinct, to set it apart from other titles.
It actually narrates the story of Parin (a young girl) whose parents went for an adventurous trip leaving her alone with grandpa. Her grandpa is the mayor of the mining community and she was the only child in the town. In the opposite direction of the village there’s a monstrous community brewing, of which the villagers are unaware. And Parin somehow visits the monster’s village where she comes to know that the monster world is in danger and then the excitement begins.
One tremendous aspect of the game is the audio. The background music and sound effects are so apt that you automatically get sucked it. Just like other successful PSP title’s, including Rengoku 2 - The Stairway to H.E.A.V.E.N., this one’s Japanese influence is unmistakable, especially in terms of the character artwork. Character voiceovers are also very well done and acted. Apart from the spectacular sound, the title also involves dazzling and attractive graphics. But there’s only significant problem with the game, and that is the two dimensional or flat background graphics.
The game involves very accessible RPG elements which are impressive and promising at the same time. Throughout the game you’ll be engaged in collecting the tokens by busting the enemies and the jars with an aim to buy more pieces. The pieces include a bandanna which makes your attack more drastic and effective, and a monkey who leverages more tokens from the drilled pieces. You’ll be able to collect these useful junk from dispersed trash cans and also from vanquished enemies. The title is filled with environmental puzzles, while the enemies you’ll encounter appear like they have turned up just to get stabbed. The gameplay is therefore admittedly somewhat lacking, but the excellent and immersive environment does help to negate these flaws.
