Taiko no Tatsujin DS Game Review

Taiko no Tatsujin (this is the 2nd Taiko no Tatsujin DS game that Namco releases) DS Game is a rhythm game, similar to "Guitar Hero". It is very addictive game, the songs include Jpop, anime theme songs, classical music etc. The DS game comes with 2 stylus. For Wii or PS2, the games come with a drum, so you hit the drum. But for DS, you use your stylus to tap the touch screen.

There are 2 game modes, one is "story mode" and one is "song mode". For story mode, there are four destinations, each destinations has about 5 challenges. And you choose "Easy" or "Difficult" for each destination. After you passed all challenges, then you own the destinations. So far I go thu 2 destinations, but the last 2 destinations, they lock the last challenges, since I can't read Japanese, I don't know how to unlock. It is a little frustrated.

For Song Mode, you can just pick a song to play. Each song has 3 difficulty levels. If you passed, you would get a silver metal. If you got 100%, then you would get a gold metal.

When you pass certain level, you will unlock some of features, like the costumes for the Taiko, different music instructment, my favorite is "Butt", it is literally a "Butt", and it makes the "Farting" sound. It is so hilarious.

So far, my husband and I have so much fun with this game. Once I play, I can't put it down!! It is really addictive.

Here is the commerical for the game (the 1st game, not the one I write the review for), but you will get the idea how the game looks like and how does it play.

Taiko no Tatsujin DS Game

I haven't updated my blogs for months, coz I was so busy with my school. Finally, I have so time to update my blog.

I didn't have time for craft last several months. I feel bad about it. But my semester will end next Monday, so I will have time to make something. I want to crochet a scarf and make some soaps. bought a lot of new fragrance oils and essential oils, I really want to try them out.

Last few weeks, I bought a several new Nintendo DS games: Ninja Town, Taiko no Tatsujin (imported from Japan) and Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2 (also imported from Japan). Because I just ordered Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2, so I haven't received it yet. But I should get it next week.

So far I love Ninja Town and Taiko no Tatsujin. Ninja Town is a very cute Ninja Strategy game, the graphic is so adorable, but don't let the graphics fool you, it is not just for kids. I have so much fun with it. And Taiko no Tatsujin, it is a rhythm, similar to guitar hero, but it is a Japanese Taiko (Drum). It is so much fun, and very addictive. Once I start to play, I can't stop it.

Here is the Ninja Town:

I will write a detail reviews for both games after I finish my final exams.
