Milano's Odd Job Collection Reviews
Milano's Odd Job Collection is a charming game that is basic and straight to the point. Do a bunch of mini-games as jobs to earn money, then spend that money on decorating the house or learning recipes.
undefined.There are a few quality of life improvements for this version, including in-game achievements, ability to make save states, a rewind feature, all in addition to the new localization and port, but those are small things that just allow this game to shine. Milano's Odd Job Collection wasn't localized in the past due to the concept of a cozy game like this being relatively niche in the West, and I feel like this will still be niche to a lot of people, but if you want to try an interesting blast from the past then I'd suggest picking up Milano's Odd Job Collection. It's not for everyone and the theming of being a child playing house would have been maybe more appealing to me when I was a child, but I really liked playing an older game with this much charm. I hope more games like this get a shot on modern consoles. There's a world of interesting niche games out there to discover, and I'm glad I finally discovered Milano's Odd Job Collection.
Milano’s Odd Job Collection is absolutely adorable and an example of an inventive import PS1 game, though it shows its age at times. Switch version reviewed. Review copy provided by company for testing purposes.
Milano's Odd Job Collection shows a glimpse of a time when, while video games were evolving rapidly, not so many things were set in stone and companies of different sizes allowed themselves to experiment more. Here we have a game that, even though it uses several familiar elements, does so in a somewhat unique way. It's a short and interesting experience, and I'm glad I got to play it.
