Description
On a peaceful day in the land of Lonronpia, Kari, an apprentice magician, is summoning up her favorite treat. When her spell goes horribly awry, hundreds of thousands of colored octopi suddenly rain down from the clouds. A guardian angel appears before her, asking Kari to rid the land of the octopi and undo the damage of her failed spell.
Features
- Encounter zany foes on your quest to rid Lonronpia of octopi! Story mode
takes you to multiple locales to battle a variety of clever and humorous
opponents, while Arcade mode lets you jump straight into the action. You can
even opt to play in "Endless mode," where it's all about how long you can
hang in there before your screen fills up.
- Local head-to-head and Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection multiplayer modes!
Whether you're playing alone, alongside a friend, or against a random player
online, the fast-paced puzzle gameplay is always a blast! Two players can
face off online, and up to four players can play in local multiplayer.
- Tons of content for a great price! Combo chains, special attacks, multiple difficulty levels... Experienced gamers will find a lot to enjoy, but newcomers will find just as much fun to be had. And with the included tutorial mode, anyone can pick it up and play!

Octomania is initially fun but doesn’t offer more than an ounce of replay value
