Doraemon Story of Seasons

Doraemon: Story of Seasons borrows from both franchises while managing to be a stand-out farm-sim game in its own right.

Doraemon is a classic family manga and anime series. Debuting in 1969, it features a robotic cat from the future sent to the past in the hopes of improving the Nobi lineage’s trajectory. Armed with his fourth dimensional pocket of gadgetry, Doraemon and Nobita Nobi often find themselves having grand and interesting adventures. Most of the time these include his friends Sue, Big G, and Sneech (name...

Doraemon is a familiar anime character that you’ve definitely seen if you’ve been to an Asian night market, or explored many multicultural centers but if you go to Japan, Doraemon is a bit of an icon. The blue robotic cat is mistaken as multiple interpretations such as a bear, raccoon or a dog and these confusions are expertly addressed in the quirky Nintendo Switch title which is available now.

Doraemon: Story of Seasons is a very cute anime-style farming simulator that remains fun and relaxing from beginning to end.

The latest Story of Seasons game is finally here and this time, it has a nifty new twist with help from the delightful Doraemon.

Doraemon Story of Seasons is definitely the worst Story of Seasons game I have ever played. If you want your farming fix, you should get the Story of Seasons Friends of Mineral Town remake on Switch. Or grab Rune Factory 4 Special if you'd like well-implemented action RPG elements in your farming life.

With Doraemon Story of Seasons, developer Marvelous is resting on its laurels and a licensing tie-in. All the ambiance and anime in the world can’t save this Story of Seasons from descending into tedium. The actual farming heart of it is feeling awfully antiquated nowadays – it's been nearly four years since Stardew Valley upended the genre, but Marvelous still has nothing new to bring to the tabl...

The songs are catchy but soothing enough to lull into the background while you focus on growing more turnips than you know what to do with. I’d recommend turning off the voices though, as Noby makes a shrill...
