Ohayou gozaimasu! Even though it's entirely in Japanese (I don't speak a word of the language), the sword slicing game FoolYoo is fairly self-explanatory. You are a samurai and you must defend yourself from attack by demons with your trusty katana. Three different types of demons will attack you, all requiring different tactics to defeat. In between rounds, demonstrate your 1337 sushi ability by deftly slicing vegetables for soup. It is disrespectful but hilarious to cut off your sensei's clothing.
Hints on how to slice vegetables correctly and other tactics have been provided by readers in the comments section of a recent Link Dump.
Reader art begotti also commented on FoolYoo:
...my pick of the bunch is definitely foolyoo, since it's been the only one I've kept coming back to play. It's a very nicely designed game, with good humor and interesting gameplay. Probably the best samurai-slices-things game I've seen out there. I'd say foolyoo should get the foolrevoo. (ba-dum-ching.)
If your mind is sufficiently concentrated... Play FoolYoo.

can you imagine this for wii? it would need to be updated, developed some more, maybe add some new features...but talk about never ending entertainment! slicing stuff up...AMAZING
Posted by: garrett | February 19, 2007 11:39 AM
I agree, this would make an awsome Wii game.

Heh, wasn't "fool you" a common embarrassing substitute for you-know-what in R-rated movies shown on TV in the '90s?
Scarface - "Fool you, man! Fool you!"
Almost as bad as Cheech & Chongs' "Up In Smoke" replaced by the "diamonds" plot.

remind me next time, posting here is equivalent to "going on the record." :D
one thing i've noticed about the games by SKT (or at least all of the ones reviewed by JIG) is that the games are played with the mouse, but there's little (if not absolutely none) done with your clickerfinger. their games really seem to capitalize with the movement of the mouse, rather than fixating on the hitting of a stationary button/set of buttons. foolyoo would be excellent for the wii, and when i need that comic break from julienne cutting everything, i'd pop in nest of moai or tower of moai.

You're famous, art begotti! :-D I thought it was a good summative statement, so I hope you don't mind putting you in the spotlight. If you want it removed, please send $19.95 to the following address: me.

that was definately fun. no idea what score I got, but fun none the less.
sidenote, I dont seem to be able to click on tags on the individual entries here. tags on the front page work, but if I go to an individual entry, like this one, none of the tags are clickable. is that just me?

lab_brat - no, it's intentional. The problem is the tag search scripts are presently creating too much load on the server, so we had to scale back on publishing the tag links. You can always use the URL notation whenever you wish, however...

We're just trying to keep the tag searching to a minimum until we can find a more efficient means.
By the way, are you still having trouble with the TypeKey cookie?

So how do you cut the vegetables, after all? The carrot you get a thin slice, the round thing with squiggles you cut the top and bottom...

Nevermind.

I got about 788. not a bad game, but it gets more fast paced with each level
here's some tricks when fighting the monsters:
for the soup making:
The quicker you are, the easier this game is, so happy slashing!

This just gets me: Why does the game insist on using the Chinese numerals, then uses Arabic when the sensei talks to you? It seems rather inconsistent.
Posted by: Dyslexic Q-Thief | February 21, 2007 10:31 AM
Woohoo this game is sooo fun! Having a bit of kanji number knowledge from playing mahjong for so long certainly gives me an edge! =) This game has everything; easy controls, addictive game play, beautiful art, my most favorite culture (Japanese), and most importantly it's one of those great casual games you can play for a couple minutes and fully enjoy yourself the whole time =) Great find, guys!!
Posted by: Jihiro | February 21, 2007 1:08 PM
Good thing I'm Chinese. I can understand the numbers xD.

Lukex115, Chinese and Japanese numeral characters are identical.
Posted by: Melonette | October 27, 2007 5:49 AM
ah... well I didnt know that! And.... er... by the way Ms. 45... in ohayou gozaimasu... the ohayou has no u in it... its just ohayo... Im so cheeky and observant! :D

Lukex, you obviously *don't* speak Japanese, so don't claim that you do. It *is* ohayou gozaimasu. If you don't even know that japanese uses a lot of borrowed characters from Chinese you obviously don't know anything except maybe how to say 'sayonara' with a crappy accent.
Posted by: Rentarou | January 15, 2008 3:57 AM
That's why they use a little - in top of the o. It's not like ohayoU, but more like a OHAYOu. The sound of the 'u' is supressed.
By the way, is there any method for the the snakemask demons? I just slash them many times in the same place, but sometimes it doesn't work...
Posted by: Bokunonamae | February 5, 2008 12:32 PM
Rentarou, I made one little mistake, and the last message was a joke, there was no need to offend me by saying "You obviously don't know anything except maybe how to say 'sayonara' with a crappy accent." Bokunonamae even shows that it was a SIMPLE mistake by explaining it. There was no need to be so offensive! For your information I do speak Japanese and just because I didnt know that Chinese and Japanese borrow some words, doesnt mean that I dont, so dont be so bigheaded!

It has stopped. Please no more belittling others here. It's very much NOT like the JIG community. :(
