I have been very surprised at all of the positive reviews for this game. I found Tokobot to be annoyingly difficult and plagued by sloppy controls. In addiiton, I found it really hard to judge distances, which makes for a lot of needless falling off of cliffs.

It's true that there aren't many good action/platform games for the PSP, but I still recommend against settling for this one. Pac-Man World 3 or Chronicles of Narnia would be better choices for someone like me.
