YMMV / Amazing Island

Go To

  • Just Here for Godzilla: A lot of people played the game just to create monsters. Unfortunately, you have to play the story and minigames and do well to unlock all of the features and parts in the monster creator.
  • Nintendo Hard: Some of the obstacles and 100% Completion (stupid monster cards).
  • That One Level:
    • The Basketball minigame is based around quick timing, but what the game doesn't tell you is not to mash A when you get the bonus, just press it consistently to get enough baskets in.
    • Waterskip Slider is really difficult despite being only the second minigame in the game. Oddly enough, the upgraded version called Waterskip Smasher is slightly easier due to having stone pillars to bounce off of. It's made even worse if you happen to be playing on an emulator, as the game will limit your speed to only half of the bar, making it damn near impossible to clear the minigame without cheating.
    • The minigames in the advanced course are absolutely brutal. Beatn'Art has strange controls and a very strict time limit, the targets in Stonehead Smash have tiny hitboxes, and Battle Ball has annoying enemy AI that ensures you will not get much further than 400 points. Good luck getting those monster cards!
