I used the $10 PSN card I bought for $5 and a $5 Reward Zone certificate at Best Buy to buy Critter Crunch last night. (I still have $3.01 left over.)
I really like the game. As I've said in previous posts, the gameplay is similar to Money Idol Exchanger, which was essentially a clone of Magical Drop.
I've cleared the first three areas in Adventure mode, including the Puzzle and Challenge stages.
I've played about 16 matches online now...and lost all but one.
I fancy myself a fairly competent puzzle game player and I can survive for a respectable amount of time...but I just can't seem to win very often. Maybe it's because less skilled players move away from new downloadable console games even more quickly than new PC games (Critter Crunch was released on PSN October 8, 2009), leaving only the most dedicated players that much sooner. (For proof of this "n00b dropoff" theory, load up Day of Defeat 1.3 today. If you're new to the game and unless you're just absurdly pro, you're going to get stomped. Repeatedly.)
Do any of you also own the game? (If you do, post a reply and I'll make sure to add you to my PSN Friends list if I haven't already.) Do any of you have any tips for Versus multiplayer?
I recorded and am currently encoding several gameplay videos, which I plan to then upload to my YouTube channel. I'll post the links once the videos are up and processed.
