Summary
Ojarumaru: Mitsunegai Jinja no Ennichi de Ojaru! turns a traditional Japanese festival into a quirky collection of handheld mini‑games. Each challenge rewards you with a Menko‑style card when you nail a high score, and the accumulated Enco cards can be swapped with friends or used in a dedicated card‑battle mode.
The lineup feels like a carnival of odd jobs: Kin‑chan’s goldfish scooping, Mike’s relaxing quoits, Sachiyo Usui’s yo‑yo fishing, Tommy Grandpa’s shooting gallery, Ken’s octopus grilling, the Haunted Mansion Captain’s spooky house, a Poverty‑god‑and‑twin‑dog golf dash, and Cold Sai & Ko‑chan’s fortune‑telling booth. The final offering is a straight‑up Menko card game that lets you pit your collection against another player.
A cute touch is the pocket‑printer feature that lets you print out your fortune‑telling results, giving the whole experience a tangible, souvenir‑like feel even though it’s all on a Game Boy Color screen.
