These collectibles are more than cosmetic, though, because they also grant boosts when playing the arcade games.
You’ll have to choose between that funky hairstyle, new tracksuit or toy hammer accessory. While some of these items can be used for dressing up, Fennel can only equip one item at once. Playing the arcade games also earns tickets that can also be traded for prizes in the arcade. There is plenty of opportunity to earn this currency by challenging other city inhabitants to a match on one of the arcade games as well as observing items, although once you hit four figures it becomes difficult to see on the screen exactly how much money you have. This can be used to purchase costumes, consumables and other collectibles. Each building has plenty of interactable objects that result in quick observations and sometimes give currency to spend. There is a brief moment of loading whenever he enters a building and at the end of each day, but loading screens are kept to a minimum.Įntering a building is like going into a Tardis, as the inside always seems much larger than the outside. Pushing the Circle button brings up a menu where all of the available locations are displayed as a repeating list of dioramas and simply selecting another location will see Fennel seamlessly transition there without any loading screens. For the most part buildings sit in the center of a small outside world where it’s impossible to fall off the edge.

Button City Review – A Unique Worldįennel’s adventure takes place across a series of small self-contained environments set out like mini dioramas. I found it incredibly easy to mix up the buttons, especially as two hands are needed to hit all of the button prompts even on the easiest difficulty. The face buttons used by the button prompts are not displayed prominently or in what seemed for me to be a natural order. The controls for this one are a little clumsy. The final game is Prisma Beats, a rhythm game where players match button presses to the beat. The game sounds simple but it actually has a deeper back story that’s revealed later into the game. The second playable game is called rEvolution Racer and pits two racers against each other as they drive three laps around the Watermelon Mountain track. All of these will take place on the same map, but the different tactics from different combinations of Gogabots on the opposing team can stop things becoming too stale. Many matches of this game will be played, especially if completing all of the side quests too. Each Gobabot has different attributes and unique weapons and attacks that can be used to kill members of the opposite team to steal their berries. Two teams of four fruit robots known as Gobabots battle to collect fruit and fill up a smoothie jug in the middle of the level. The first is the most prominent and is the latest craze amongst Button City’s kids: Gobabots. There are three of these that are playable. Other quests focus on the games within the arcade itself. As players can choose when to start the next game day, there’s plenty of opportunities to progress through side missions before moving on. None of the missions ever have a time limit although there are some days where some areas are inaccessible. Some of these do unfortunately get a bit tedious when you’re going back and forth between two people repeatedly and you wonder why they can’t just talk to each other. Some of these require him to solve simple puzzles but the majority are fetch quests. There are plenty of bystanders who will also request Fennel’s help and offer plenty of side quests away from the main story. The greedy fat cat Peppermint Pepperbottom who is trying to take over the arcade is not a popular person and has managed to gather himself a lot of enemies. Beneath the main objective of trying to save the arcade is subtle hints towards the value of friendship and working together as a community to reach a common goal, especially when you see the fates of those who only look after themselves. Throughout the main story, Fennel meets plenty of cute characters all named after different herbs and spices, most of whom are willing to help him along his journey.
