Critic Reviews for Shin-chan: Me and the Professor on Summer Vacation - The Endless Seven-Day Journey
A game that gives you the rare chance to kick back and do diddly squat.
Solid and definitely have an audience. There could be some hard-to-ignore faults, but the experience is fun.
Shin chan: My summer with the teacher fulfills its goal of making us feel like children through Shinnosuke's carefree eyes, with the sense of humor of the series, something that fans will love. But its very slow pace and very limited gameplay (it seems like a graphic adventure that almost does not evolve) will not be to everyone's taste.

Shin-chan: Me and the Professor on Summer Vacation - The Endless Seven Day Journey might not be action packed, but it's incredibly endearing.
Apart from mashing together two classic Japanese IPs, Shin chan: The Endless Seven-Day Journey mashes together some quite contradictory concepts and comes up with something special. You have the directionless, simple adventures of a child's curiosity on a rural holiday, but they're interrupted quite suddenly by a tightly directed (and completely absurd) plot. Wacky sitcom energy quickly becomes the drive and purpose in a game that could have been merely a wholesome meander-em-up. So there is the soothing magic of endless days running round fields and just seeing what catches the imagination, but also a heavy steer to play a story from end to end, packaging the never-ending summer into a punchy and dynamic 15-20 hours. Knowing now what Kureshin and Bokunatsu are, if you think you like the idea of mixing the two, this game is very easy to recommend.
Now, we need more than ever more relaxing games like this one.

The most defining aspect of his game is the signature Boku no Natsuyasumi atmosphere. The Shin-chan elements take a back seat to support the lazy summer vacation ambiance, so don’t expect any elephant dances or jokes about Misae’s butt. If anything, the Shin-chan connection holds this back from being all it can be, so it ends up pleasing nobody.
With a minimalistic approach, taking you back to your childhood, Shin chan: Me and the Professor on Summer Vacation -The Endless Seven-Day Journey- is a unique title in our current market, bringing players an unusual and sweet combination.
