    If you're a fan of Dragon Quest IV, you'll enjoy seeing the story from the "other" side. If you've not played it, you'll still enjoy the stand alone story. Monster catching and synthesizing are also addicitve!

    Great game! Been playing these games since the games were on the Gameboy back when the series was called ”Dragon Warrior Monsters”. If you like the Pokemon games and want a good Role playing game like it then this is your game! I love the series just as much as I love Pokemon and I am a HUGE Pokemon fan! Instead of using pokeballs to catch the monsters, you feed them to get them to like you and you will have a chance of them wanting to join your party. You battle with up to 4 monsters in your team at a time. I love the “different seasons bring different monsters” concept in this game too! Also has a great storyline!

    Good DQ game with a campy story. If you have played any of the previous titles then you know what to expect. If not its essentially a DQ game with monster collection

    I haven't played Dragon Quest Monsters since I was a kid, but I've loved getting to get back into it. It gives a lot of the nostalgia that I had a satisfied feeling.

    It's definitely Dragon Quest! I think the initial storytelling and budget for the game could have been better, but it was a solid game experience.
