Summary
Ah, the Japanese. Gor bless ‘em with their near inexhaustible supply of wacky cultural icons. Responsible for their fair share of these are Sanrio, creators of Little Twin Stars and merchandising phenomenon Hello Kitty. Now brought to you by budget publishers Xplosiv, and developed by the people at Namco, Hello Kitty rolls to the rescue – on roller skates – in Hello Kitty Roller Rescue. Prepare yourself for heart breaking cuteness as all your favourite Sanrio characters are brought to life in Sanrio Town.
But it’s not all cutesy, candy-coloured super sweetness in the mascot village. King Block of Planet Rock and his ham-fisted henchmen have different ideas, and Kitty is the only one that can stand in his way, way the help of her trusty frying pan wielding sidekick Badtz-Maru.
20 other Sanrio characters in the town have pledged their support, and you can defeat the evil King Block only by using the weapons of courage and friendship. Hello Kitty must don her pink roller skates and skate for freedom and justice. There’s plenty to see and do – collect coins to unlocks animated sequences, pictures in the gallery and even music. Meet targets on your missions and you’ll be rewarded with new clothes and weapons. Use special weapon an you’ll become the fearsome Cube Kitty!
Namco have done a beautiful job of creating Sanrio Town and it really does look wonderful, and is populated by characters like Cinamoroll, My Melody, Kuririn the hanster, Purrin the chubby golden retriever and Keroppi the frog. If you’re a fan of Sanrio’s work, or you just want to bask in optimistic fluffiness for a time, then Hello Kitty Roller Rescue is the perfect antidote to the spikiness of modern life.
