Super Monkey Ball Touch And Roll is an extremely funny game developed by Amusement Videos and published by Sega exclusively for the Nintendo DS handheld console. The game was initially
released in Japan on the 1st of December 2005, then in Europe on the 17th of February 2006, and North America on the 21st of February 2006.
Super Monkey Ball Touch And Roll is the third Super Monkey Ball game featured on a handheld console (there have been GBA, N-Gage and PSP versions, too) and it fully uses the touchscreen as a control method (even though the classic D-pad control is supported). There are no less than 12 worlds presented in the game and 6 different mini-games featured. And, even though the music from the game sounds very much like the one you can hear while playing Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz, Super Monkey Ball Touch And Roll was still a good, fun game to play.
