Underrated PS3 Gem with So Much Charm
I had so much fun playing this game. It is incredibly charming particularly in the presentation and even the story and characters. I love how the game is uniquely presented as like a play! And the background pieces and everything move as if they were transition parts on a stage. The characters are all very fun, unique and interesting.

And the background pieces and everything move as if they were transition parts on a stage. The characters are all very fun, unique and interesting.
The game does have a tiny bit of seriousness to it, but the story mostly doesn't take it itself too seriously and is just fun, and charming to play. I did hope for a bit of a more emotional ending, but that's like again, not the sole focus of the game. The music also was great and fitting for all different levels and parts. I liked that each stage had a different theme and never overstayed its welcome.
The game in some ways reminded me a bit of Little Big Planet's story mode, but with pretty great voice acting! A minor gripe is the quick-time events, but the gameplay otherwise was pretty fun. and I like that the game does introduce a couple of new mechanics as you go along, but isn't too difficult to pick up quickly.
Overall, highly recommend, especially if you like fun platformers, and if you like theatre because of its presentation! Definitely if you liked LittleBigPlanet for instance, I think you'ld like this as well.
