Choro Q Wonderful! (チョロQワンダフォー!) is a 1999 role-playing and racing video game for the PlayStation, developed by E-game and published by Takara. It is the successor to the Tamsoft-developed Choro Q 3 and hence the third sequel to Penny Racers (1996); the "Wonderful" name in its title, in Japanese pronunciation, is a pun on "four". An English-language fan translation was released in 2023.[1]

Gameplay

Choro Q Wonderful! was the first Choro Q video game to incorporate plot-based progression with role-playing elements.[2]

Reception and legacy

[edit]

Famitsu scored the game 26 out of 40.[3] In an import review, PLAY UK magazine scored it 66% calling it "not wonderful, just plain dull...".[4]

In 2002, E-game and Takara produced Road Trip Adventure on the PlayStation 2 which was localized globally, with a similar racing-RPG concept.[5]
