mixed feelings on this one…the gameplay is pretty cool I suppose. But like a lot of the rest feels sort of duct taped together.

tl;dr:
It’s a solid game but I think it’s barely a “yokai watch” game

Gameplay:
kinda meh until you unlock ~ half of the skill tree

Befriending:
Why is it like this. Why do I have to do like 5x the amount of work to befriend one yokai 😭

Crank a kai:
Didn’t give me any cool yokai 💔

Plot:
unlimited plot but no plot…if you rlly want the plot just watch the tie in movies and show(s)

The yokai:
I ❤️ the new yokai in this game

The blasters:
it being DLC is meh but Level 5 was probably not doing well at that point so whatever. It’s not as broken as Busters 2 and not really as fun as Busters Treasure (ykw3). It was fun in a vacuum though

Characters:
Why are there so many 😭

also it was nice of Level 5 to release a Switch 2 game in 2019 ❤️ (it runs at sub 30 regularly)
