Is Boku no Natsuyasumi Portable - Mushi Mushi Hakase to Teppen-yama no Himitsu!! still worth playing in 2026?

A first portable entry in Sony's holiday series, this Boku no Natsuyasumi Portable plays out a child's summer in a steep mountain village, between exploration, bug catching, fishing and meetings with a bug loving professor. The peaceful tone, the wealth of daily activities and the summer nostalgia embrace a contemplative approach against the grain. Left in Japan, the title rests on the language. For a fan of gentle narrative games or someone curious about the series, the title keeps a soothing atmosphere and a singular nostalgic charm.
