Another excellent game from freeware developer Yamada No Ana Project, who is dedicated to producing games based around the same cast of characters, led by Doka-chan, a stubby construction worker and his friends. Like all other games from this group, the game is 100% English, boasts excellent music, offers 2-player hotseat mode, and allows you to change control keys from the Options screen. Doka-Chan no Oni Gokko is a fun arcade-style game with a simple premise: catch all the chicken in the maze while avoiding red devils and other nasties. The gameplay is fast and fun, although some mazes can be quite aggravating and some chicken quite elusive ;) If you are looking for a fun game with anime graphics to while away some minutes with (and even play against a friend), Doka-Chan no Oni Gokko is a good bet. I enjoy the game, but the lack of variety in gameplay prevents it from meriting a Top Dog tag. Reviewed by: Underdogs |
