It might not be a typical Dragon Quest RPG, but there's still plenty of fun to be had

It goes without saying that the Dragon Quest series has enjoyed phenomenal success around the world as an RPG series over the years, so placing the name on any game is going to automatically heap certain expectations onto that game, no matter what type of..

With online multiplayer and fresh game play at only 500 dsi pts, can you go wrong?

EDIT: Wait. I have played this for over an hour and I have to give pause... Only d/l this if you truly think you like strategy type RPG board game stuff. I don't see myself playing this a whole lot, but the graphics are good and the general idea seems okay, just implemented a little awkwardly for my taste. After playing online and through tutorials and in free mode, I give this 6 out of 10 stars. B

Is actually quite a fun game for $5, the training is short and simple to understand. I'm very glad they added WiFi. The game is excellent I think for $5.

not the best game, but not the worst either. each game lasts around 3 to 5 minutes, so its the perfect game to kill some time. it is a great package for five bucks, with wifi connection and download play, this is a pretty good game.
i give it a 7 out of 10

The game looks a bit too simplistic to offer any real strategic depth or maneuvering. That said, I like the idea, but restricting combatants to a small, no frills grid space seems like a recipe for failure.

Wait...Has it download play? So can you play with a friend with a DS (and no copy of that game)?
