    This game is incredible. The gameplay seems very simple and repetitive at first, but I am here to tell you that there is an incredible amount of depth to this game. The main story takes probably around 8-10 hours to beat, and it's honestly quite underwhelming; but this game isn't good for its story and its main campaign; this game is mostly postgame content.

The main story takes probably around 8-10 hours to beat, and it's honestly quite underwhelming; but this game isn't good for its story and its main campaign; this game is mostly postgame content. There is a massive system of equipment, hundreds of monsters to collect and use, and plenty of bosses to learn the ins and outs of. This game is not the pinnacle of game design, but the amount of content more than makes up for it.… Expand

    A very good game that has exciting gameplay with a high skill ceiling in not only strategy, but also in the gameplay itself. This game offers perhaps the largest amount of playtime of any Yo-Kai Watch game, even when compared to the beast of content that is Yo-Kai Watch 3. If you get the impression that the gameplay is repetitive, it's understandable, but false.

This game offers perhaps the largest amount of playtime of any Yo-Kai Watch game, even when compared to the beast of content that is Yo-Kai Watch 3. If you get the impression that the gameplay is repetitive, it's understandable, but false. The game offers many different scenarios, and if those get boring you can simply try a different Yo-Kai who is bound to have a different playstyle. The progress you make in the game on the way to making your Yo-Kai the best they can be will always feel worth it in the end. All of that, and that isn't even to mention the massive post-game that introduces so much to the game, the music, the witty character dialogue, and just how invigorating the boss fights are. This game has so many upsides to it that I wouldn't be able to fit it all here, so I highly recommend you buy this game to experience for yourself.

    Side note: my exact rating would be a 9.5-7.    … Expand

    A fair spin-off that could have been better if it had leaned even further into the parody that ultimately wound up just being inconsequential window dressing for gameplay that's not at all related to Ghostbusters. [Issue #37 – January/February 2019, p. 69]

    Its approach to the series remains simple and intuitive, with a good use of the 3D component. Unfortunately its tutorial segments are too long and cumbersome, the game is too blatantly based on the Ghostbusters movie license and its low level of difficulty renders the game's tactical component rather irrelevant.

    Each of the ten chapters has a storyline that somewhat overlaps with numerical Yo-Kai’s. But whatever the plot reason is, in the end you’ll find yourself plowing through enemies using the same two basic attacks. It’s a grind game, plain and simple – and an uninspired one at that. [Issue#234, p.58]
