Doraemon Mao Xian Wang (0)

Doraemon Mao Xian Wang directly translates as Doraemon Adventure King. This made-in-Hong-Kong board game uses the popular Japanese cartoon, Doraemon, as its theme. Doraemon is a lovable cat-robot from the 22nd century, who is sent back in time to present-day Japan to help Nobita, a pitiful school kid who is best described as a loser. Doraemon wears a magical pouch on his tummy from which he produces the most amazing gadgets to help Nobita, but Nobita somehow always manages to misuse them. The game belongs to the large family of 'Millionaire' clones, which is itself derived from Monopoly. Players take on the role of one of four characters from the cartoon series: Doraemon; Nobita; Shizuka (Nobita's girlfriend); and Dorami (Doraemon's sister). Each player has a nifty miniature figurine to move around the track. Dice-rolls move the figurines and players earn or spend money according to where they land. Instead of properties, players land on adventures which they can 'purchase' and other players landing there in future have to pay the owner of the adventure. There are also chance cards. The manufacturer, Sun Hing Toys, makes several other Doraemon-themed board games.
