This game is extremely interesting, in my opinion, because it's like EarthBound, but with fruits, vegetables, and weird-looking characters. It's in Japan right now, but I hope it comes to America, Europe, and Australia.
You may think this game is a rip-off of an NES title, "Princess Tomato in the Salad Kingdom", and/or the Game Boy title, "Kwirk", but it's not. It's called "Tomato Adventure", because the first word in the title, "Tomato", is used as a short adjective for "Dangerously Tomatoey" (according to the "Game Over" scene, showing the protagonist in a pool of ketchup, while being upset).
In this RPG, the protagonist is a little hare-like boy wearing blue clothing, his name is Demiru. At the beginning of the story, he and his girlfriend named Pasaran (little hare-like girl wearing pink clothing) who wanted her robot toy reassembled, but, a rotten tomato named Abira sent two of his assistants, Burikki and Gorikki, to capture Pasaran, so they can take her "Heart Energy" to power up the "Super Cara-Cooker", a laser-like machine that turns people into toys. The Heart Energy has five different energies: Laugh Energy, Cry Energy, Anger Energy, Excitement Energy, and Love Energy.
It's up to Demiru to save the entire "Ketchup Kingdom" population (as well as Parasan). Demiru will meet up with three partners: Aresa (little hare-like girl wearing orange clothing), Sofubii (fat frog wearing a tuxedo and a derby hat), and Rereku (a ninja-like mole).
Demiru and his partners use weapons called "Gimmicks", they are similar to the weapons from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, they have a small micro-game that you must use correctly in order to give your enemies a direct hit. Plus, some special points for special attacks, like Aresa's Tomato Robot MK. 2, Sofubii's Gulp Choco, and Rereku's Mole Rush.
The sprites are excellent, the audio is addictive, the story is funny and interesting, the gameplay is nice, the graphics are good, and the artwork of the characters are cute and engrossing. I'm giving this RPG a 9.5 out of 10.
This game may or may not come across the Pacific Ocean along with other Japanese games, like the Legend of Stafy series, Chibi Robo, Doshin the Giant, Kururin series, Nonono Puzzle Chai-Rian, Wrecking Crew '98, and some other interesting Japanese game titles and series.
