he Apes are still cute, and still pretty far off the mainstream radar. Which is a shame, because I think they are some of the best characters in all of gaming. After some failed attempts to revive interest in the series, Ape Escape Academy takes a page out of Nintendo’s successful Wario Ware handbook. Basically a collection of minigames running the gamut from trivia quizzes to bullfighting, you compete in the contests to win squares on a tic-tac-toe board. It’s as simple as that, and better for it, as Academy definitely offers some quick thrills. However, the loading times between games somewhat diminishes the fast-paced feel that Wario Ware delivers. Also, some of the more ambitious games, like soccer, are plagued by sluggish controls. Still, this unambiguous title manages to (mostly) hit its target.
