Thunderbolt: Gomibako Review

Josh Kramer: "The game is fairly expensive for a PSN title at 1500 yen (or about $15 US dollars), and that, combined with the ridiculously tough difficulty, makes it really hard to recommend. I suppose if you are absolutely dying to pick up a new puzzle game and have some extra money to spend, you could do worse. Just remember, after failing to clear Stage Five for the hundredth time in a row, be sure to throw your PS3 controller at something soft (and not your cat)."

Pros

+ Unique theme
+ Addictive, physics-based gameplay
+ Polished visuals
+ Fun multiplayer mode
+ Allows for the uploading of in-game videos directly to YouTube

Cons

- Cannot save progress in Main Mode
- Excruciatingly difficult
- Too many things to worry about in the last few stages
- Horrendously annoying title screen music
- Expensive price point
