Fun, addicting, frustrating bugs – Doraemon Repair Shop Review

The game is really fun and addicting, and if you like fast paced game this is for you. Unfortunately because of the fast pace, it's incredibly annoying when the game freeze up. The screen will freeze and you won't be able to do anything, and when it unfreezes you'll have a lot of upset customers. The game is also a bit limited. After you reach the maximum goal (300000 dorayaki and 2500 happiness I think), you hit the end. You can't use the dorayaki for anything if you already upgraded your tools to max (after level 4 you'll need bells to upgrade your tools instead of dorayaki, and you better off saving your bells to hire more people) so you'll end up with tons of useless dorayaki :/ It would be much better if you can trade the dorayaki for bells, that way at least you can keep playing to unlock the characters. Also happiness is only good for unlocking new stages, so once you reach the final stage, it's also pretty useless. You can let your customers leave angry and it wouldn't matter. Another thing that I find weird is how you have to tap the melon bread and the bells to collect them, instead of it being automatically added to your inventory. There no indication that you collected them too, when you tap them they sort of bounce and disappear. Did it bounce because I tapped it or is it just the animation? Did I get it? Did I miss it? Who knows. As a frame of reference, it took me about 200 game days to reach the final stage, and each game day probably took 30-60 seconds.
