    Overall, the game is fantastic. It’s fun for solo play and is even better when working in co-op. I’ve poured hours into the game and have still not completed every possible task available. There’s so much replayability and it’ll have you craving for more Yo-kai madness… or maybe a Yo-kai is making you think that. Regardless, the game is definitely fantastic and I’d highly recommend adding it to your 3DS’s library.

    It took three years for Yo-kai Watch Blasters to make it out of Japan, and I’m not quite sure it was worth the wait. The game looks fantastic and has an excellent localization, but the lackluster and repetitive combat hold it back from being anything more than run-of-the-mill. It's a serviceable spin-off, but with this series struggling as much as it does, it needs to deliver more than serviceable. Especially when it's on a piece of hardware that is on its way out.

    While its rinse and repeat Diablo-lite gameplay can get a little repetitive after extended play, there’s no denying how much fun it is to return to the world of Yo-kai Watch. Whether playing solo or via local or online co-op, Level-5 has taken all the hallmarks of the series and made it even more accessible to newcomers and seasoned monster hunters.

    If you’re looking for a soft RPG to get a tween interested in the genre, then you can do worse than Yo-Kai Watch Blasters. It will take about 20 hours to complete, plus time spent collecting Yo-Kai and filling up your collectors book. However, if you’re looking for something that will change your life, with a strong story to fill a hole - then don’t go for this. It’s fairly average, and the gaming equivalent of busy work at a job you’re kinda fond of.

    It does feel repetitive though and the combat feels awfully bare bones if you don't make an effort to switch up your gear and supporting party. That being said, if you are a diehard Yo-Kai Watch fan or even somebody just itching to get into the games, we wouldn't recommend giving this one a miss.

    With the next mainline Yo-Kai watch game coming to the Switch it’s unclear just if there’ll be another of this series coming to the 3DS, after Bony Spirits, Fleshy Souls, and Psychic Spectres, Blasters feels like a considerable misstep with a game style that just doesn’t feel like it lends itself favourably to the series. It just feels boring, repetitive and ultimately frustrating which is a shame if this is to be the series finale on 3DS.
