Ape Escape: On the Loose


Ape Escape: On the Loose is an Ape Escape title released exclusively for the PSP. It is basically a PSP version of the first game of the series. Sony has made some modifications from the original (made for the PS1), such as using only one analog stick, and using the right trigger button as a crouch motion instead of the jump.
The game starts off with a young boy named Spike running with his friend Jake to see the recently made time machine that the Professor has made. But once they reach the Professor’s laboratory, Specter and a bunch of crazy monkeys send them through time and space. It is up to Spike to capture as many monkeys as possible and stop them from changing the world.
In the game you play as Spike, and to catch all those monkeys, you will get many gadgets to choose from, such as the Time Net, Stun Club, Water Net, and a whole bunch of other gadgets to capture those monkeys. Seems simple, right? Wrong. No two monkeys are the same. For example, you first see a monkey that can run very fast, and then you see one with a machine gun. With the many gadgets you will acquire, plus the perfect difficulty, you will enjoy this game.
Bottom line, Ape Escape: On The Loose is a fun platformer for the PSP, with a great challenge, exceptional gadgets, and addicting gameplay. If you have a PSP and love platformer games, this game should be in your collection.

Score:
8.0/10
