We didn’t spot this yesterday, but apparently anyone that bought Dokuro from the European PlayStation Store early on ended up with the trial version. That meant that the game was cut short, trophies wouldn’t sync and – of course – access to the full version was off limits.
The issue has (apparently – there’s not been an official announcement) been corrected, but anyone affected is urged to contact customer services for a refund. Once refunded, you’ll be able to buy the game again (the full version). Your local contact number can be found here.
Note that those numbers (at least the ones we quickly checked) aren’t free, which seems a little bit cheeky given that as far as we can see it’s Sony’s fault the game didn’t work. SCEE’s Jawad Ashraf apologised for the error, but said that contacting customer services “is the quickest way to rectify the problems consumers have faced.”
Dokuro’s a playful Vita puzzler, and costs £11.99.

For anyone who does have to phone up to sort this c*ck up out just ‘say no to 0870’ (Google is your friend).
Actually, anyone who has to phone premium numbers will want to do the above.

I bought Dokuro yesterday and it’s definitely not the trial version. Unless the trial spans several chapters and has full trophy support of course.
Great game by the way! I love it :)

Luckily I didn’t buy it yesterday and won’t be buying it today either. :D
