Shin-chan: Shiro and the Coal Town Review | Twisted Voxel

WTMG’s Oliver Shellding: “Soapboxing aside, Shiro and the Coal Town is legitimately interesting and has a pretty sizable tail for a game of this style. There’s tons to discover, the jokes that aren’t inherently problematic are funny (and the puns are even better if you know a touch of Japanese), and it runs wonderfully on the Switch. I can easily see this being an investable game for people looking for a marathon, not a sprint, and it’ll be more easily recognizable for younger players. Had I not played Natsu-Mon, I probably would have recommended this instantly. However, since I know a better mousetrap already exists, the choice to get Shiro and the Coal Town comes down to your connection to the characters and the world. For me, it’s a middling promotion, but, if you really love the franchise, then I think it’s an excellent representation and interaction.”
