Nintendo DS, £30. All ages
This game tests your rhythm and is as simple as it is irresistible. The Elite Beat Agents are a team of three men in black who solve problems through the magic of regular metrical song: hit the beat, save the world. This sounds easy enough but it's increasingly challenging.
The stories are neatly realised in comic book panels. Your job is to tap numbered buttons right on the beat, match the stylus to a moving ball or spin a wheel at top speed. And that's it. The music ranges from Madonna to Deep Purple, the agents are chic to the point of high camp and the whole thing is quirky, peculiar and great fun.
