definitely had my expectations extremely low for this one, as I had heard in the past that this was the worst katamari game by a large margin, and after playing it, I simultaneously don't think it's that bad as well as understand exactly why people think it's the worst. So as a game, this is definitely your katamari fare that you know and love, plus theres a gimmick where you can use the touch screen to squash and stretch your katamari to either fit through tight narrow spaces or low wide spaces which is a little weird but sure. I think the biggest point of contest here is the fact that theres a lot of DLC that while the contents themselves are free, in order to actually use them you need to earn a SHITLOAD of in game currency to actually unlock and use them. Said in game currency convienently can be purchased online as microtransactions if you want to avoid the grind. The sad thing about this is apparently the DLC levels are among the best in the entire game, and they are locked away either behind hours of grinding or a paywall, and that's no fun. I don't think this is the WORST katamari, but you are definitely better off playing one of the home console games instead of this. It's about on par with Me & My katamari, I guess. The OST goes hard tho, gotta love shabadoobie
