Release Date: December 7, 2018
Refreshed version of Catamari Damacy, an unusual logic game from Namco (later known as Bandai Namco) in 2004. The task of players is to roll the ball and increase its weight by collecting more objects.
Katamari Damacy Reroll is a remastered version of Kamatamir Damacy, an original combination of a logic and action game from 2004 developed by Namco studio (a year later transformed into Bandai Namco as a result of a merger with Bandai). The original game started its own series and the main character became one of the company's smaller mascots.
The story of Katamari Damacy Reroll begins when the King of All Cosmos accidentally removed all the stars. To repair the damage caused by him, the King sends his son (simply known as the Prince) to Earth to collect the materials needed to rebuild the destroyed astral bodies.
Katamari Damacy Reroll doesn't change the gameplay model known from the original title. During the game, we direct the Prince rolling the titular Katamari - a magical mass, to which smaller objects stick. Each item collected increases the size and weight of the Katamari, so that larger and larger items stick to it, from pins, sweets, etc., to mountains and clouds. But be careful, because collisions at a higher speed may cause us to lose some of the objects collected, and the bigger the Katamari, the harder it is to control it. Over time, we will unlock new difficulties and new types of missions.
In addition to the single-player mode, Katamari Damacy Reroll offers the option to compete with friends in split screen mode. Players find themselves in a small arena as separate characters and try to collect as many objects as possible.
Katamari Damacy Reroll's three-dimensional visual setting is maintained in a characteristic style, slightly angular and strongly cartoon-like. The authors have limited themselves to adding higher quality textures and improving the performance of the game. In addition, the Nintendo Switch version allows the use of Joy-Cons as motion controllers.

Game Ratings for Katamari Damacy Reroll Video Game.
PC Gamer: 85 / 100 by Philippa Warr
Wonderfully weird and inventive. Katamari Damacy isn't perfect, but it holds its own impressively well 14 years on.
Push Square: 8 / 10 by John Cal McCormick
Katamari Damacy Reroll is a faithful if unadventurous remake of a PlayStation 2 classic that should probably be experienced by every gamer at least once. The unique presentation and anarchic sense of humour stand the test of time, and the satisfying gameplay loop makes high score chasing a treat. It's a game in which you can roll over old women with a massive sticky ball and honestly you just can't say that about most games.
Nintendo Life: 9 / 10 by Dom Reseigh-Lincoln
In a cynical era where nostalgia is pumped for all its worth with endless soulless remasters, Katamari Damacy Reroll serves up an engaging and rewarding game that hasn't let any of its original charm or personality be lost in the transition from one platform to another. With support for gyro controls and multiplayer – not to mention a degree of performance that sees it run smoothly in both handheld and docked mode – this Switch edition is easily the best way to play it outside of blowing the dust off your old PS2.
