However, lives replenish twice as fast and there are plenty of incentives to keep coming back to this game. The world of Yo-Kai Watch is charming and bubbly, and if you haven't already, check out the 3DS game this spin-off was branched off from. Though, it's not necessary to have extensive knowledge of Yo-Kai to play this game.
    Gameplay puzzle based and similar to Pokemon Shuffle in that you have Yo-Kai, or monsters so to speak, that you use to fight against another Yo-Kai. In this way, there are RPG elements, where there is collecting these Yo-Kai, and leveling them up to raise your overall HP and their attack. You can also level up their soultimate moves which are their specialized moves which you can activate within the puzzle once you pop enough wib wobs (which are the Yo-Kai's faces).
    The puzzle element is different enough from other mobile puzzle games, where you link together adjacent wib wobs to form a larger wib wob to generate a larger attack once you pop the wib wob. This linking mechanic is reminiscent of the Disney Tsum Tsum mobile game or Dreamwork's Home mobile game. The enemy Yo-kai(s) attack you on a regular basis regardless of how many times you make a move, which forces you to be alert with your health bar.
    There's a lot of incentive to keep coming back. As you play and unlock different aspects of the game, you will be able to access the achievement system, whereby you receive certain rewards such as in game currency, food for Yo-Kai, items, titles and profile images. Like Puzzle and Dragons, there is a gashapon machine where you insert special coins and be rewarded with items or Yo-Kai which you can use in battle.
    All in all, this is one of the better, well produced free to play puzzle games on the smartphone, and is loads of fun.

    Yo-Kai Watch Wibble Wobble is a very nice game for mobile devices from Level 5. It's a free to play but it's not too suffocating, and it has some "hardcore" mechanics that resonates from the main game for Nintendo 3DS.

    Yo-Kai Watch: Wibble Wobble is classic puzzle game perfectly put at work: linking creatures of the same color, attacking enemies and collecting new Yo-Kai is something that you can't just leave.

    Yo-Kai Watch Wibble Wobble may have a few quirks but dedicated puzzle gamers, especially those who have some interest in the overall franchise, owe it to themselves to give it a shot.
