History[]
A week after Season 2 concluded on 3/14/2021, Bujiko Studios announced the release of Dorazemon Choice to be released on 12/4/2021. However, due to a controversial police raid on the game's producers on 5/12/2021, the game was delayed to 5/2/2022, then when the producers filed for bankruptcy on 7/4/2021, Bujiko Studios delayed it to an unannounced date between 12/3/2022 and 6/23/2023 and shut down the official Dorazemon Choice website, took down the Dorazemon Choice Channel, and removed all information to this game on their website. On 11/14/2021, Bujiko Studios paid $1M to ensure that no internet archive could archive the Dorazemon Choice until it releases, but it was too late and a lot of gamers had saved the site. Under pressure from gamers and their fanbase, on Xmas 2021 Bujiko Studios released a free demo version of the game. On 12/31/2021, the release date was finalized: 4/12/2023.
Gameplay[]
From the demo version and the recalled trailers for the game, it is very similar to Henry Stickmin and has multiple endings. however, the demo version only got to step one of the game and it crashes when attempting to either:
- Try to go to step two via completing step one and clicking next.
- Editing the game's source code. All of the other steps are bank and therefore will crash.
This was the same mechanic used in the demo version of Dorazemon RPG 2: Master of Chaos (to be released on 11/14/2021), where going to Quartine Resort Station would crash the game, so as to not give spoilers to what secret boss is in there(MiniDoraz No. 3).
