This is a no brainer to pick up. Glad it is finally getting a rerelease!

Great review Kerry!

Since I played through the Famicom version, let me throw in some notes to some comments here:

@thiz The manual has some story bits and a few gameplay tips that are not communicated in the game because of limitations, so the con has a point.

However, regarding @Headpirate’s comment about teaching mechanics through game design: Blazing Rangers does that.

The game shows you a spark in the super open and easy level 1 by default, making the player curious to experiment how they can get something there.

Another non-self explanatory element, the fences which can only be crossed without the hose, are explained through natural play in another level, by placing a kid behind a fence that cannot be reached by the hose’s length.

And so on - The game design is quite on point in that regard.

It appears that the update you mention in this article was released today!

That’s *****. I won’t believe them before they announce a new Goemon game.
