    I thought this game is expensive but after playing it I can say they should have increase their game's price. I mean on it's game play, it should worth more than 20 bucks

    Wow, this game is really, really great. I'm only 20 or so levels in so far (it only released here in europe today), so ill post a more detailed review soon. In the meantime, Dokuro definitely comes highly recommended. At £11.99 it represents excellent value too.

    I read up on this game when it was released and took a chance. And I'm glad I did. I love the art style, the puzzle mechanics are intuitive and addictive, and the unrequited nature of the protagonist's attachment to the princess is rather cute. Great surprise for me on the Vita and I don't regret spending the $20.

    This is a great puzzle platform action game! Great art style and funny / cute story. You basically play through 10 mini areas (puzzle/platform part) and fight a boss at the end (action part) of every stage. The Bosses are challenging, but not frustrating. This is not an easy game, it gets tough at times, but I never felt it to be "cheap." I was wary of the $20 price, but this game has tons of content! There are 150 levels. For those who give it poor marks for it being "frustrating," it's because the game forces you to think. If you try to barrel through the areas, you will get frustrated - because it's not how the game is supposed to be played. You will be double jumping, pulling and pushing levers; pulling, pushing, stacking, exploding boxes; using different types of chalk to connect items, light them on fire, raise them with water. You can also turn into a Prince that can kill most enemies in your way (albeit for a limited time). All to get the Princess you're escorting across the board to the goal. This game uses the touch controls in the right way - intuitively! It never feels slapped on or forced.… Expand

    While it won’t change your life it is full of surprises, and clever too. [April 2013, p78]

    It can be devilishly challenging, but never seems insurmountable. [Apr 2013, p.115]
