LocoRoco Remastered Description

Mechanics
In LocoRoco Remastered for PS4 we have to shake the pieces of the game’s world to move the game’s heroes, round, yellow spheres, from one place to another. We have to be very careful in order to avoid traps and safely get our spherical protagonists to the finish lines of the various locations we will play in (i.e. a tropical jungle or an area covered in snow).
We can also feed them with fruit to make them bigger. Doing so will give us more points when finishing a level. However, the bigger our heroes, the harder it is for us to move them around. The possibility of dividing them into smaller, indepdentend ones for a short period of time comes in handy in such situations. LocoRoco Remastered is full of riddles and puzzles, so very often we will have to rely on our wit and intelligence. The are also many hidden surprises in the game that only the most inquisitive players will find.
