They called this a "multiplayer gameplayer teaser" but I don't see any multiplayer activity, and I especially don't see how this is can "tease" gamers into getting it. The description says that the Noby Noby boys start a multiplayer match by exploding out of the mouth of a house.



That's exactly what the trailer shows - no more, no less. But one guy, username h1forlife, posted a comment on GameTrailers that I found interesting:

I have this game, and I have no idea what I am doing or if what I am doing is the point of the game. I'm eating stuff and trying to get longer, but at a certain point I just crap everything out and can't grow anymore. I fell very confused when I play, but... I still enjoy it.


Maybe Nobi Nobi Boy is just one of those games that you just won't get when watching. Oh well.

I don't get this game either.

I've played it for a total of maybe 20 minutes or so before my brain shut down and I collapsed on the floor in exhaustion.

even the creator is confused with his own creation, at least insofar as describing it is concerned.

said takahashi: "It may sound strange that I, creator of this game, have had a hard time trying to describe the type of game Noby Noby Boy (releasing on PSN this Thursday, February 19) is. Since the beginning of its development, I still haven%u2019t been able to give a clear answer when asked...How come it%u2019s hard to explain, you ask? It%u2019s because I wanted to make a game that cannot be expressed by words in the first place."

well, he got that right.

Is that your looking to much in between the lines. Just like the first part of the jump title says, "Just like play dough". You just have fun with it. It's more of an interactive toy that at the end of the day you can add the total number of meters that you have streched to a grand total to help a worldwide goal.......to see how big girl can get to get new lvls to add to the verity of areas to mess around in and devour at your will.


Just play it to play it. No stress.

I see multi-player in there, notice that more than two heads come out of the house.

There isn't any "activity" so to speak, but it's showing multi-player.

 » Agreed..

If you look just as they start coming out you can clearly see three heads come out. That is why the pile is also big.
