About

The YO-KAI WATCH game is about hundreds of sometimes cute, sometimes spooky, and usually mischievous Yo-kai that inhabit our world. Yo-kai are not ghosts, monsters or creatures. Yo-kai are, quite simply, Yo-kai. They cannot be seen by the human eye, but they are everywhere. Whether born from the soul of a deceased human, or an everyday object discovering its higher purpose, their personalities are distinctly humanlike.

    It may revolve around the supernatural, but its emphasis on daily life and the excitement of childhood instills it with a potent charm that should endear it to players young and old. Yo-Kai Watch may lack the epic plot and deep, challenging combat system of other RPGs, but its cheerful spirit and culturally infused world make it one of the most joyful experiences on 3DS.

    The rise of Yo-Kai Watch in Japan has come rather quickly and the series definitely has a chance to make an impact in the US as well, largely due to the unique characters and likable world that kids will love. The mostly luck-based Yo-Kai capturing and hands-off battle style could certainly use some work, but there is no doubt that Yo-Kai Watch is a solid blueprint for the future of this already ongoing franchise.

    YO-KAI WATCH

    Yo Kai Watch is such a fun experience. I loved all the characters, how much personality the Yo-Kai, just, all-around good fun. It s like Pokemon in that you collect Yo-Kai, but it has so many more in-depth elements to it. I absolutely loved this.

    AWESOME ! This game is SO great ! I played to the 1, 2, 3 and Blasters and, this one is the hardest and the funniest. You'd say " this game is for babies...", well, no it isn't ! It's harder than a Pokemon and longer ( the gamemode, quests, story mode)... And the best in that game is that when you finished the game, you've got plenty other things to do ! Buy it, you'll like it ! ;)
