A series that never got the love it deserved, not by the public nor Nintendo itself. As a concept, Chibi-Robo is an absolute brilliant idea, putting you in the eyes of a 3 inch robot exploring a big house, discovering nooks and crannies with secrets to be uncovered, all while you clean stains with your musical cleaning utensils. Not enough games play with size quite like Chibi-Robo does, putting a relatively small character in what will seem like a huge world.

The game's writing is charming all throughout, the characters are all endearing, even all of the side-characters are fleshed out enough to add a lot to the game as a whole. In fact, the enjoyment I get from the game's writing is almost entirely from side-character related content, it takes up the majority of the game. Even then, the main story is also a fun one to play through, putting you in the middle of a domestic squabble in which you have to save the marriage of a manchild addicted to anime to the point of putting his family in debt. Trust me when I say it's goofier and more fun than it sounds.

The game's sound design is top notch, giving you different pieces of music to fit each NPC's personality, fun riffs every time you use a tool, and every time you walk on a different type of surface a different instrument will play along to your footsteps. The use of voice clips from assorted media spliced to construct the voice clips of the characters in game adds a lot to the whole goofy and wacky feel of the game, and is honestly something I don't see talked about among the people who have played this game. It's such a cute little touch.

All in all? The game is great, it's fun to play, it's fun to explore, it's fun to listen to, it's fun to look at, the stories are all fun, everything was just so well done. One of the most endearing games I've ever played.
