I went into this game with no real expectations as I don't enjoy the Shin-chan anime at all but due to enjoying the 僕の夏休み games, I gave this a shot. I ended up loving this game as it's just such a fun wholesome summer adventure and it's much more pleasant than the anime. I found myself getting the platinum trophy too as I just couldn't get enough of it. I absolutely adored the art style too and the backgrounds of every location was just stunning to look at. I also just found it to feel so comfy and nostalgic so I highly recommend it.

Este juego es muy relajante y me ha sacado más de una sonrisa con la localización.

Lo de que me haya dejado clones de niños en el pueblo de vacaciones y no les haya borrado de la existencia ya para otro día, Shin-Chan cabrón

It's Boku no Natsuyasumi but with a Crayon Shin-chan skin and a bit more "direction" and less "aimlessness"
Though you can play very aimlessly, the game does have "objectives" it wants you to achieve, and a lot of side stuff you can just go and do if you feel like it

It's a very very good game for an audience that likes things like Harvest Moon and Stardew Valley.

I am convinced that the people who rate this game low for specifically "being boring and having nothing to do" just speedran it. I just finished the game and it is extremely well-paced for a cozy game. If you call this game a "slog to get through", I am convinced you are better off playing Hollow Knight or maybe a rouge-like. Cozy games, especially one that ISN'T a stardew rip-off, from a company that HASN'T GOTTEN A LOCALIZATION IN TEN YEARS! We literally need to embrace cozy games that are NOT ripping off stardew, I am so serious!

Anyways, I otherwise understand the complaints over the controls and fonts as those are accessibility issues, and the map is easy to get lost in but this is honestly SUCH charming game and was worth the $20 (if you manage to snag this on sale). It lived up to a lot of the hopes I had before playing it for 2 years and I was NOT disappointed. I suggest getting this game as it is an absolute gem.

For the love of God stay away from the Dinosaur Battles

I'm all for cozy games with no real objective, but this game was weird. It's pretty and cozy, but at the end I felt like I wasted each in-game day doing the wrong thing and I missed out on a lot of stuff. I didn't get any wholesome warm feeling; just confusion and mild annoyance.

A few petty technical gripes; the camera angles when you change zones are really disorientating. The perspective of each zone didn't line up with the map so it was easy to walk in a big circle going between the same 3 zones next to each other. Additionally, the game never saved my custom controls so I had to remap it each time I launched the game until I just gave up on remapping them.

I don't know if it was worth $20 USD lol

Me when I am five years old and cannot yet grasp the existential consequences of being trapped in a time loop because a scientist wants to get an all access pass to theme parks
