Saru Ga Daisuki

About

Saru Ga Daisuki casts you as a nimble ninja monkey determined to rescue a captured partner from a mad scientist. You leap across platforms cling to walls and ceilings and fling a yo-yo to smash obstacles and trigger mechanisms. The controls emphasize fluid movement letting you cross environments in ways that feel intuitive but surprising. Combat is minimal but the yo-yo serves as both a tool and weapon requiring timing to break barriers and solve basic puzzles. The game’s charm comes from its quirky premise and tight physics. While short it offers a smooth flow of challenges with a focus on momentum and spatial awareness. Its 2006 release date means it’s largely overlooked but fans of inventive platforming might find it a hidden gem. The art style is simple but expressive and the lack of filler keeps things brisk. Small in scope but well polished for those who want quick bursts of monkey madness.
