  • Its real time battles make great use of the 3DS's touchscreen, but Yokai Watch is rather lacking in drive and momentum...

  • Surprising amount of depth, Great Yo-kai designs, Boss battles
  • Immature sense of humour, Side quests are a grind
  • It's easy to see why Japan has fallen head over heels for Yo-Kai Watch. It's a fun and captivating adventure, set in a town that's bursting with life. If you can look past the fart jokes and moderate difficulty level, then this game tackles some interest...

  • Unique combat system, Slick cartoon graphics, Brilliant collectible critters, Overflowing with charm
  • Fiendish difficulty spikes, Not the richest or deepest RPG
  • Forget any sneering Pokémon comparisons. Yo-Kai Watch looks sure to be a monster hit with the 3DS's school age audience, but it might also make a fair few friends among older gamers. It's not the deepest or richest game that Level 5 has ever come up with...

  • Plenty of eccentric Yo-kai beings to meet, It's a pleasure to explore the town and interact with characters, Excellent translation that makes the story more interesting.
  • Oversimplified combat, Baffling game mechanics that only serve to slow down progress,

  • Addictive and energetic battles, A simple and lovely world you can get lost in, A plethora of quick and satisfying sidequests
  • Monstercollecting that feels arbitrary, A lack of control over your yokai, Not much depth
  • While it's not Pokemon-killer, Yo-kai Watch delivers a delightfully simple and engaging experience that'll keep you coming back time and again...

  • Yo-Kai Watch might look like a pocket monster clone with a fumbling battle system, but it's the genuinely endearing cast of characters and Yo-Kai who give it enough heart to be more than just a simple copycat. It's not the next Pokémon, but it certainly i...

  • Rich worldbuilding, Charm and personality, Boss fights
  • Passive battles, Some tedious quests
  • As an RPG, Yo-Kai Watch mostly fumbles its battle system and creates a relatively passive experience. However, I adored exploring every corner of its compelling world. The low difficulty ultimately works in its favor — I was always eager to move on to the...

  Published: 2018-10-10, Author: itokiry , review by: actugaming.net

  • Un contenu qui ne se moque pas de nous, Beau et coloré, Chouette bande son, et doublages en français, L'utilisation de StreetPass, Chouette mise en scène
  • Beaucoup trop répétitif, Système de combat superficiel, Histoire anecdotique, Mêmes environnements et boss que dans Yo-Kai Watch 2
  • Pas particulièrement fan de la licence, j'ai tout de même su apprécier son univers fort coloré avec ce spin-off, dont le contenu m'a presque estomaqué. Si je lui préférerai malgré tout la série Donjon Mystère, notamment pour la plus grande profondeur de g...

  Published: 2016-05-02, Author: Laura , review by: actugaming.net

  • Sous-titres et doublages en français, Grand nombre de Yo-Kai, Graphismes colorés et mignons, Musiques entraînantes, Bonne durée de vie
  • Peu de personnalisation pour le héros, Pas de multijoueur en ligne, Manque d'indication sur la carte
  • Même si Yo-kai Watch reprend un peu le principe des Pokémon, je l'ai vraiment adoré, que ce soit pour le côté "Attrapez-les tous! " ou pour l'histoire en elle-même. De plus, les quêtes annexes, les insectes et les objets à récolter de partout ne manquent...
