REVIEW 'Let’s Play! Oink Games' does justice to Japanese tabletop gems —"packages four of the company's analog gems in one Switch package, with handy extras and online play. It's great for Oink veterans and board game newbies alike.".

Graham Russell // Siliconera

An obvious labour of love, this ill-fated arcade gem has been improbably recovered, restored, and reassembled, and it never feels like anything less than a carefully unearthed treasure that’s been polished until it shines". Trevor Gould at Pure Nintendo wasn't so keen, marking this as a notable bit of gaming history, but a bit lacking overall.
