Imagine this;
You’re in a hurry walking through the supermarket.
It’s crowded and a old woman is constantly in front of you, in the
slowest pass ever. When you want to get some cheese she’s standing
in front of the shelve, blocking your way, thinking about if she wants
some cheese and which one. You stay polite, but in your mind you
eliminated her a half hour ago.. Well that’s Trash Panic in my opinion..

Trash Panic is a puzzle game. You see in front of you a Tetris environment.
A trash can, a crane with items. The items come down slowly (not visible the first
5 seconds?! ,you can rotate the items and have to place them in the trash can.
Normally when I start playing a new game I’m enthusiastic, but now I wasn’t.
The game didn’t give me the feeling of a small kid with a new toy,
I thought it went wrong with this game when I realised that.
The first level I just started smashing things in the trash can, some items,
like the red stapler (Office space) were funny. The annoyance was present,
because some items which did smash in the beginning, refused to be
smashed later on in the level. Many times when I used the smash button,
the items kept falling down in a slow pass. But with the handicaps,
the first level was easy to finish, the second too, but after that the levels got nasty.
Big items started falling down, items like a slide, big buildings, cranes, boats and
pieces of land. One building could fill up the whole trash can..and smashing that
with small items like a violin or a rocking horse, took too much time.
That you could use explosives in your trash can was a nice help, but 9 out of 10 times,
the items turned red, but didn’t brake down and you’d still have to brake the items.
My friends couldn’t finish level 4, I did, but at level 5 I threw my towel in the ring of
frustration. The atmosphere in the game was missing, so my feelings of giving up were huge!
After 4 times of thinking, wth?! I’m a good gamer, I have to succeed, I just threw my
controller on the floor, shut off my PS3 and went to bed.
It could have been a nice game, the concept is cool, but this game as it is, A huge FAILURE!
My rating for Trash Panic:
