スナックワールドトレジャラーズ ゴールド (【数量限定封入特典】限定ジャラ「クリスタルソードZ-α」 同梱) - Switch

First and foremost, the game arrived in time and in great condition. The jara was inside of the game case unopened and was not damaged at all. If you're iffy about importing this game because you live in the States, you'll be fine. The Switch is also isn't region locked meaning that American consoles can play this game with no issues. That being said, this IS a Japanese game and will be in full Japanese. There is very minimal English in the game itself and is mainly there for stylistic choices. I would recommend basic Japanese reading skills at least in order to play this game and know exactly what you are doing, but I could see someone who doesn't know any Japanese at all to be able to get by just fine as well.For the majority of the time playing this game, you will be completing quests and running around dungeons fighting bosses for various different reasons. Most of the time, you will be sent on story quests by the King and his daughter Princess Melora along side Chup, Pepperon, and Mayone. There is more to the story, but I want to try to keep this as spoiler free as possible. Let's just say somebody goes missing. :) The best way to describe it is like how Youkai Watch is, very quirky and hilarious for the most part but gets serious at times as well.It is held in a old fashioned fantasy setting with modern devices such as the Fairypon. The Fairypon has the ability to scan jara and snacks. Jara are the small keychain weapons that when scanned in can become usable weapons in game. Snacks are the character chips that are very similar to the medal concept from Youkai Watch, where you can scan them to have a battle companion during your quests. You can actually collect jara and snacks as physical toys and scan them into the game since they have NFC chip inside of them, you will receive random items when you scan them into the game and a chance at getting that specific jara/snack. You can scan the same jara only once a day, but if you have duplicates you can scan up to 5 of the same jara in one day. Otherwise as long as you have different ones, you can scan however many you have. Jara/snacks are all compatible with both the 3ds and Switch versions of the game, so I wouldn't worry about if a specific one doesn't work with the Switch version.The Switch version of this game has been feeling much more difficult than the 3ds version, but I'm not exactly sure if it's just me or if they actually did change the difficulty of this version. I have been feeling the need to complete all of the quests for a chapter and even grind a few of them before I am ready to face off a boss. The grind isn't *too* annoying, but it's still there. I didn't have to grind really until I had reached chapter 4 in the game. I've yet to fully complete the Switch version of this game, so I can't go too much on about how later parts of the game will be difficulty wise, but I have read that it is very hard. Overall I have been greatly enjoying myself with this game regardless of the difficulty.In my last photo, I had experienced a bit of a bug in the game where there was a void in random parts of a dungeon I was in for a side quest. This is the first and only time this has happened to me, but something to keep in mind.For those who don't speak a lick of Japanese still scared of importing a game in a foreign language, you might be in luck. There has been news of this game getting an English localized version around 2020. If you're doubtful after everything then I would hold tight and wait for the English release of this game. Otherwise if you understand Japanese well enough to play it, I 100% recommend this game! It is beyond underrated and truly deserves a bigger fanbase for how great it is.
