Dokapon Kingdom
Friendship Killer, Yes, But still Fun
The first thing Beta and I noticed upon picking up Dokapn
Kingdom was that it billed itself as the Friendship Killer. I can say, with
wholehearted honesty, that yes, Dokapon Kingdom can be a friendship killer. But,
in spite of that, it is a greatly fun game. Just don't play it with anyone with
high bloodpressure or a bad temper.
Dokapon Kingdom will grate on your nerves the moment you
turn it on, not because of gameplay flaws or poor execution, but rather because
of that damned angel thing that talks you through setting up your game. God,
that thing's voice drives me crazy. If you can get past that, then you will be
inundated with other screwy vocal work throughout your playtime. I love cute
female voices (call it a weakness), but these... they're so saccharin-laden that
it drives me crazy.*shudder* Ok, on to the gameplay.
Dokapon Kingdom plays out allot like a board game. You spin
a spinner to determine the number of spaces you can move, choose where to move,
and participate in an event based on which space you land on. Some spaces have
mini-games, bonuses or other events, but most of them involve fighting a monster
of some sort. How this works is at the crux of the game.
