DESCRIPTION
A spin-off from the hugely popular Dragon Quest series of role-playing games, Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker is similar to the Pokémon or Digimon style of creature-breeding battle games. The game takes place in Green Bays, a series of islands that teem not with ravenous, cheesehead-wearing Packer fans, but with more than 200 classic Dragon Quest monsters. Green Bays is home to the famous monster scout challenge, in which competitors scout monsters, synthesize new beasts, and pit them against one another in head-to-head battles.
Players take on the role of a boy who is sent by his father, Warden Trump, to infiltrate the monster scout challenge. The overall goal is to develop the strongest group of monsters by capturing, training, and synthesizing as many beasts as possible. Multiplayer modes let gamers battle and trade creatures via a local wireless connection, or players can use the DS's Wi-Fi capabilities to participate in both continental and global tournaments in the Wildcard World Cup. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide

“Dragon Quest Monsters is Enix trying to make a 'better' pokemon. What they ended up with was far from it, I enjoyed playing pokemon, customizing my characters, and making them have balanced move sets and what not. This game gives you a team of three monsters that you give orders to and they kinda just do whatever they want. The monster breeding was very lacking and got rid of your monsters that were good and left you stranded with a level 1 new monster that may (or may not) be a higher rank. The amount of pointless grinding was annoying and having to start over constantly to get a new monster that'll be better after fighting for 3 days to get him up where you old monsters were.
This game annoyed me, the graphics were incredible, but it just wasn't enough. It was also too slow moving, and the camera made me want to tear my eyeballs out.”

“I originally got this game to see if it was at all like Pokemon, in some ways it was and in other ways it was not. I did like how you got to see the world in 3D and run around, but I thought it was a little confusing and the catching was really all chance and no skill. The game is really enjoyable, but the overall feel is slightly boring and I could not really see the point in the story, but it was fun overall.”

“Though I was a fan of the first two Dragon Warrior Monster games, this one failed to hold my interest. Be it the unlikable hero, the bland storyline, the outdated battle system, the large amounts of grinding, or otherwise, this game doesn't compare.”
