Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D – Space Recipe for Disaster

Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D – Space Recipe for Disaster is a Platformer game developed by Tanukii Studios for the Nintendo 3DS and was released on February 23, 2017. The game opens with a short animated cutscene that pays homage to the original. The space rabbit Mikosuki is soaring through the cosmos, holding on to a sacred stone tablet that depicts the infamous recipe of immortality.

Whilst trying to avoid a sudden meteor onslaught, he is struck by a comet, and the tablet breaks into 4 separate pieces – 3 of which tumble to the earth below. The 3 pieces each find their way separately into the hands of the game’s 3 main protagonists – Kokopolo, Tatsumo, and Jinbe. Each vows to track down the other pieces and reassemble the whole tablet to learn the secrets of immortality, and so the madcap adventure begins.

At its core, the game follows the same basic premise as the original, as the goal is to clear all stages of wandering enemies by angering them and luring them into the jaws of a carnivorous plant. As with the first game, this is done by approaching enemies, scratching them, then running away whilst they chase the player around the stage’s mazelike structures. Large combinations of enemies can be chained together if the player uses route efficiency to their advantage, and quick reflexes are needed to avoid obstacles.
