Wagyan Paradise is one of the last (good) games in the Wagyan series a great series of semi-educational non-violent platformers developed by Namco and aimed at a young demographic primarily children. It has superb use of solid colors and slick visual effects not to mention a great soundtrack and an ongoing story. Its impressive display of simplicity shines through and it’s above average in every respect even if you do take into account that it’s kiddy and educational (history taught me many edu. games are subpar). I played years ago and wanted to add it to my collection but I couldn’t find it for a good price until a few months ago (CIB for about $10). It’s ideal for Japanese beginners and can be a bit challenging depending on how you play. WP tells the tale of Takuto Karin two cute young Wagans who embark on an adventure throughout Wagan Land (Wagyan is also read Wagan in this game and in the manual) after strange occurences cause a sacred landmark near their home the ’Hohoemi no Ki’ or ’Tree of Smiles’ to collapse. Raiti an anthropomorphic bird adventurer whose travels have sent him around the world and across the seven seas is the first to notice these events and spread the word. He notices an odd cloud formation and takes it upon himself to keep looking when he notes how peculiar the surrounding area is. It’s not until he’s shocked by the Tree of Smiles’ fall that he flys off alarmed. Later that day Papa and Mama are talking (that’s their names) about b.../b
