Official Nintendo Magazine UK

A clever puzzler. [Christmas 2008, p.99]

Games Master UK

Tranquil puzzle-platforming that's ideal for filling five minutes. [Christmas 2008, p.84]

n-Revolution Magazine UK

Docomodake is a title well worth having in your collection, because apart from the brain-damaging tunes, you’ll find little wrong with this fun little platformer.

NGamer UK

Brevity is pretty much the only complaint we can level at the game. [Dec 2008, p.81]

WonderwallWeb

An addictive title that is let down by a very easy difficulty setting and a bit too short with no replay-ability.

games(TM)

Taking on the overcrowded puzzle genre is never easy, but Docomodake succeeds by being both original and charming. [Dec 2008, p.127]

EuroGamer

It's only really the brevity and ease of Boing! Docomodake that prevents it from scoring more highly.

VideoGamer

An imaginative, slightly quirky platform puzzler which will be great for the kids but doesn't hold a whole lot of challenge for adult gamers.

Thunderbolt

If you’re after a game to play on the way to work, or when you have a spare few minutes, then this could be a worthy purchase.

DarkZero

Boing! Docomodake is a difficult game to gauge. At times it can be painfully frustrating - with some puzzles requiring a complete level-restart if failed initially – and it’s criminal just how short it is. But on the contrary, Boing! is filled with intuitive puzzles, a genuinely creative control scheme, and some truly amusing moments.

Zentendo

Boing! Docomodake DS is a solid puzzle/platforming title which has just been let down by the fact it’s painfully short. With a great premise and a good grading system, it keeps the player's interest for a decent amount of time; however, without an online multiplayer mode or a longer single player, it’s ultimately let itself down. That being said, it’s a great title and is well worth getting for puzzle/platforming fans.

Jolt Online Gaming UK

This is not a bad diversion for a few hours, but Boing! Docomodake feels like a very short game that could actually have done with exploiting its unique features further. In conclusion, there is still mush-room for improvement.

3DJuegos

Boing! Docomodake is a simple game with classic values but a little far of the actual philosophy. Thanks to the clever and funny use of the stylus, the game will be more interesting for players.

PTGamers

Boing! Docomodake DS manages to make the player think, but is unable to be captivating, diverse or ingenious.

Gamer.nl

Boing! Docomodake has a very interesting concept. On paper that is. Too bad that the idea doesn't make a good game. The game itself lacks liveliness and creativeness and does an absolute minimum of what you expect. Sometimes you do have the think about a solution, but most of the time you'll instantely know what to do without even blinking your eyes.

AceGamez

Boing! Docomodake DS is the developer's attempt at emulating the gameplay of LocoRoco on the DS but it fails in the most crucial areas - level design, length and aesthetics - all of which LocoRoco excelled at.
