Doraemon Versus The Dream Thief and the Seven Gozansu

Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Doraemon vs. the Dream Thief and the Seven Gozansu
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    Fujiko/Shogakukan/TV Asahi
RELEASED:         1993
TYPE:             Platform
LANGUAGE:         Japanese

PREMISE:          Yet another platform adaptation of a popular Japanese
                  children's cartoon, this one revolves around the
                  misadventures of a cute blue cat who must rescue his
                  owner and companions from the clutches of an evil space
                  alien.  A huge success in Japan, the series spawned a
                  number of computer games, but this is the only one known
                  to exist for the Genesis.

IMPRESSIONS:      The show is juvenile and so is the game, but that's not
                  necessarily a bad thing.  In fact, this is probably the
                  ultimate Super Mario clone for the Genesis!  The game
                  design and gameplay are so similar that you'll soon
                  begin to wonder if the same programming house designed
                  both games.  Bravo!  A job well done.

VARIATIONS:       The title given above is a rough translation from the
                  Japanese - Doraemon Yume Dorabouto 7 Nin no Gozansu.
                  Most folks simply refer to it as just Doraemon.  The
                  Mega CD game is supposedly identical; see separate entry
                  for more details.
