Katamari Damacy

In Katamari Damacy, the King of All Cosmos has accidentally destroyed the stars, leaving the Prince to rebuild them with a magical rolling sphere called a Katamari.

Starting with small objects such as push pins and paper clips, players guide the Katamari from a third-person perspective and collect increasingly larger items as it grows. Over multiple levels, the Prince can eventually roll up people, cars, and other large objects.

Features

• Size-based collecting that expands as the Katamari grows
• Stylized versions of Japanese houses, cities, and surrounding areas
• Timed stages with size requirements set by the King
• Bonus missions focused on restoring constellations
• Hidden presents containing accessories for the Prince
• Two-player head-to-head Katamari competition
• Off-beat animation and a catchy soundtrack

A tutorial introduces the controls, story, and a side story about a Japanese girl who can feel the cosmos. Developed and published by Namco, the game was released on September 21, 2004, for PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3.
