[PSV] Dokuro

I know that not many people will be playing this game, but that's why I want to make a thread on it to better promote it... because it's fantastic.

The story itself is pretty simple. There's a Dark Lord who has captured a princess and you're the skeleton minion that watches over her. You fall in love with her at first sight despite her being unable to notice you, and you let her go. From here you have to help guide her through two hundred and fifty levels (from what I know).

At this point the game becomes a puzzle game where your mission is to keep away baddies, block spikes so she doesn't walk into them, etc. The puzzles are quite clever and as you go on you get certain chalk mechanics. Such as connecting a box to a thread, changing water levels, or spreading fire to blow things up.

The game starts off fairly easy and once you get about eight stages in (each stage has ten levels) is when the game ramps up the difficulty).

It's a download only title at $20.00, but it's worth it for the amount of gameplay you get. I debated between Unfinished Swan and this, but this was the better choice in terms of how long I played it.

I really say give it a try if you're looking for something on your Vita. If you like Layton this is a good game for you, it also has some platform elements. GungHo is kind of a newer studio for consoles, they've released a lot of MMO stuff, so any support they get means more localization for little gems like these!
