About this product

Product Information

A Docomodake is a stout little mushroom person that serves as the mascot for Japan's largest mobile phone service provider, NTT Docomo. To be clear, there are different Docomodake family members, each representing a different calling plan the company offers. Boing! Docomodake for Nintendo DS stars Papa Docomodake, who must venture out into the wilds to find his missing family members. Each family member waits at the end of a side-scrolling, platform-climbing puzzle, in which Papa must figure his way past various obstacles by jumping, climbing, and digging. When there doesn't seem to be any passage available, Papa Docomodake can release "minis" -- tiny little mushroom people -- that can go places and do things a full-grown mushroom person simply cannot. As each level-puzzle is completed, with the help of the minis, another family member is returned home in time for the annual forest festival.
