Chibi Robo ISO

Chibi Robo is a platform adventure game developed by Skip and published by Nintendo. The game was directed by Kenichi Nishi (Moon: Remix RPG Adventure, LOL: Lack of Love) and was produced by Nintendo deity Shigeru Miyamoto. It was released in 2006. Chibi Robo is a series of tiny mass produced robots who help people and act as maids and companions. The game starts in the Sanderson family's house where little Jenny Sanderson is having a small birthday party. On his daughter's birthday, the father of the house buys her a Chibi Robo model (more of a gift for him than for her), which upsets his wife due to the Chibi Robo's high price. The Sandersons are a loving family but a dysfunctional one. The father is unemployeed and constantly spends money on gadgits and toys (who among us can't relate). The mother is disappointed with her life. And the daughter acts like a frog (possibly to deal with depression). The Sanderson house is also filled with toys who wake up and go about their ways at night or when the Sandersons are away. The player takes the role of the Chibi Robo model of the house. Chibi cleans the house and cheers the Sanderson family up, and also befriends their toys and helps them with their dilemmas. Chibi only has limited battery life in the begining and frequently needs to recharge his power supply. The more the player helps around the house, the more Happy Points Chibi gets which will get him rewards from Chibi Robo HQ as well as bigger batteries. -----A lovely, funny, adorable game.

Tthough it is too cute for me, it is a very enjoyable, and rewarding, puzzle-platformer.
