Okaeri! Chibi-Robo! Happy Richie Ōsōji!: Difference between revisions

Unlike its predecessor, ''[[Chibi-Robo! Park Patrol]]'', ''Okaeri! Chibi-Robo! Happy Richie Ōsōji!'' takes gameplay back to its roots, focusing on cleaning the house and exploring it for [[Moolah]] and [[Happy Point]]s. A new feature within the game is the ability to vacuum up dust found around the house. This is done by plugging into an [[Outlet]], giving Chibi-Robo the energy needed to do the chore. However Chibi-Robo is still limited by his cord length and amount of energy which is available for the house. Electricity is not a free thing, as energy for the house is collected by compacting trash, giving garbage a whole new importance beyond obtaining Happy Points. Moving around in game is done by using the touch screen, rather than the D-Pad like in ''[[Chibi-Robo! Park Patrol]]'', meaning that the actual game is displayed on the lower screen, and not the top. The camera is controlled by the D pad and ABXY buttons, while items are toggled through the L and R buttons. 

Acapella (アカペラ "Akapera" in Japanese) is an alarm clock toy that resembles a tropical bird and can be found in [[Jenny's Bedroom]]. She is mocked by a group of [[bird]]s for her loud voice and inability to fly. Despite this, she dreams having a beautiful singing voice.

Mesa (メーサ "Mesa" in Japanese) is a toy shark that resides in the [[Kitchen]] sink. She loves to eat tomatoes.

Like the previous games, there are enemies present within the game. The enemies in game are referred to as [[Ghosts]], or "ゴースト" in Japanese. They reside inside the house's attic at a [[Casino]] run by their boss [[Don De Niro]], a mobster boss who collects various expensive objects and expands his casino empire in the attic. All sea foam green ghosts are subordinates of the Don, doing his bidding by working at the casinos, acting as entertainers, and serving him. However, there are rogue ghosts on the surface in the house that are comprised of filth. These ghosts are hostile towards [[Chibi-Robo]] and will attack him by swarming onto him, draining his [[Watt]]s quickly unless the player fights back by swishing the stylus back and forth across the lower screen. Ghosts can be neutralized and taken down by many methods, such as hitting them with the [[Chibi-Plug]], shooting at them with the Police Outfit, or sucking them in with the [[Chibi-Vacuum]].
