Conclusion
There’s a lot of content to plough through but Sega appear to have concentrated more on quantity than quality. If you fancy a break from the main objectives you can jump into one of the numerous mini-games, such as Monkey Race, Target and Fight. There are a few other variations, such as game where you’ll have to pop balloons. Unfortunately the mini-games don’t offer anything new to the experience as every skill that you need to complete them has already been achieved whilst moving through the main adventure.
The idea of Super Monkey Adventure Ball probably seemed great at the time, but unfortunately it’s a dire example of how not to create an adventure game. The environments and the task in hand do not translate to well to the fact that you’re stuck in an uncontrollable plastic ball for the whole game. The camera is often unresponsive, tasks are too difficult and the levels are too repetitive. Super Monkey Adventure Ball is one for the bargain bucket.
Pros
Fun for kids..for a while
Plenty of content
Glossy graphics
Cons
Controlling the monkey ball
Camera angles

Super Monkey Ball Adventure is not so super.
