    A horrible AI coupled with a maddening Difficulty right from the Start destroy any Fun one could have with this Combination of "Mystery Dungeon" and the Etrian Universe.

    Avoid this Game it only brings out the frustated and swearing Side of us Gamers.    … Expand

    Another overrated japanese trash by Atlus. You can count on them to always disrespect the player's time, making very cheap games with little effort on their part and just padding them with endless brainless boring grinding, because they can. Then they can advertise "hundrends of hours of gameplay". Yeah right.

    This is one of the buggiest, most imbalanced RPGs ever made. The starting dungeon has monsters that can 1 shot your entire party before you can even react, and half the time the game goes to auto save it corrupts your data. Save your money and avoid this game at all costs.

    An old school roguelike enriched with some interesting twists. [13/2015, p.73]

    Mixing RPGS and roguelike elements, this game manages to offer a deep challenge, but fails in being too short for its kind.

    The enjoyment of Etrian Mystery Dungeon will be very much dependent on how much a player enjoys the core experience of repeated dungeon excursions.
