Game Overview & Story

On Jungle Island Aiai meets Princess Deedee of Monkitropolis and Prince Abeabe of Kongri-la, star-crossed lovers whose marriage is hampered by a feud that exists between their respective kingdoms. The Monkey Ball world is plagued by misunderstanding and suspicion, which has led to the rise of The Naysayers, gloomy creatures who are sucking the joy from the Monkey World.
