This game is absolutely wonderful. Engaging and challenging levels that build gradually in difficulty and a bunch of fuzzy monkeys trapped in balls as characters. Brings me back to my hamster rearing days. If only I had the kind of crazy mazes and puzzles this game has.
The best part of the game, as well as the sequel, is its ability to hold my interest. Even after I think I've gotten all the play I can get out of this game I keep coming back for more. Either for the great multi-player games, the fun party games or the always difficult, but rewarding puzzles. If you plan to go the distance with this game it will take up most of the hours of many days, but right away this addictive little gem wins a place in your heart and consistently rewards you for your efforts.
Also check out Monkey Ball 2 for even more monkey action.

WHEN I STARTED PLAYING THIS GAME WITH MY SON I THOUGHT IT WAS SO SIMPLE, UNTIL I REACHED LEVEL 7. I WENT BANANAS WITH EXCITEMENT. IT SEEMS STUPID BUT IT IS SO FUN.

I just got my gamecube after christmas. When I got and tried Super Monkey Ball I would give it a 4 1/2 because of great pictures and fun. I didn't give it a 5 because you can only do 3 games in the begining but over all it was good.

A blast with a group or alone!

I loved this game and it is definitly worth the [item price]! There is a very, very small learning curve and after that you are good to go. The main game 'll keep you occupied (and sometimes frustrated) and the mini-games are a blast (pool, bowling, golf)The party games are equally fun, even more so when played with a group. I whole heartedly recommend this to anyone who loves a challenge and especially those who enjoyed a little marble maddness back in the day.

Worth Your Time.

This game does a great job at rounding out the Gamecube's lineup. With mini-games galour, this unique game never fails to impress with its innovative level designs and cool shortcuts. The main game is impressive: over 70 levels- and that's not even counting the bonus levels! Also, there are a few things to unlock, so the main game always keeps you coming back for more while you earn play points. The main game, however, is unimpressive compared to the great variety of multi-player mini-games! Monkey Bowling, Monkey Target, Monkey Billiards, Monkey Golf (mini-golf), Monkey Race, and Monkey Fight are all fun to at least some degree, and they are all multi-player. Monkey Bowling is always fun because it's easy to get into even for beginners. Monkey Golf is frustrating at first, but once you get the hang of it, it is quite enjoyable. Monkey Target is also really great, and Monkey Fight is perfect for parties.

The game does have a few shortcomings. The music is not catchy, and the controls seem a bit sensitive at times. Also, some of the levels on expert mode are just too difficult to the point that they are intensely frustrating. However, Monkey Ball comes out on top because of its innovative play and excellent mini-games.

this game is exquisit!

This is a great game. What you do is you roll around in a ball and try to get to the goal without falling off or letting the time run out. You lose a life if either happens and you geta 1-UP if you get 100 bananas. There are different characters and levels of difficulty and there are mini-games. If you like arcade games and have some patience and a GC, get this game.

Super Monkey Ball is easy to do VERY difficult to master.
Beginner is hard for beginners of course. Advanced? I can't say anything about that,or Expert either. This game is very fun and challenging.

Great family fun.

Parents looking for a quality game experience for their younger gamers need look no further. Super Monkey Ball is a 3D maze game. You advance through each maze by tilting the ground to allow the ball encapsulated monkey to roll along the path you choose. It also includes mini-games: a race game, a target game, a mild, mild boxing/punch game, and later unlockable pool (table) and other games. The whole package is put together well, is non-violent, and is just what you want out of a video game for younger childeren - amusement without guns, blood, gore, etc.

That said, the mazes get progressively harder, and I imagine a teen user would get lots of enjoyment out of this game too. Enjoy!
