If the whimsical cover or overly Japanese style of... well, everything doesn't look like it will grab your attention, it is probably best to go with your gut. However, if these things do sound appealing, or you're looking for a fun game to play with your family, you might like what Dokapon Kingdom has to offer.
Dokapon Kingdom has a look and sound all its own which, depending on your outlook, can be good or bad. On the bright side, the presentation matches what the game is trying to accomplish. Although the story shares some similarities with King Lear, it doesn't take itself too seriously and enjoys its Japanese niche quirkiness. At the same time, the graphics are PSOne quality and leave something to be desired on the technical side. The music, while fitting, can grate on your nerves if you let it."
