Is it still worth playing?

Namco's 2005 game for the PlayStation 2, in which the Prince, the small son of the King of All Cosmos, is ordered to collect objects and build stars. You roll a sticky ball called a katamari, which picks up objects smaller than itself. As it collects them it grows, so it can pick up larger ones. Hitting a moving object or a wall knocks objects off and shrinks it, while rolling against a wall lets it climb to higher areas. The King sets the objectives, such as reaching a required size. With a friend, a two player cooperative mode and a competitive Battle mode are available. Rolling from the smallest things to the largest, an idea anyone gets at once, still makes every level easy to pick up today.
