    A lot of story and dialogue leads to little action at the beginning, but it heats up if you stick with it. [May 2005, p.92]

    A collecting RPG in the tradition of Pokemon - shamefully so. But instead of expanding on this style of gameplay that's already been done to death, The Shaman King sees fit to simplify it so that it offers a challenge akin to turning a water faucet on and off.

    Annoyingly short with a storyline that leaves you dangling at the end.

    Nice game, but sort of puzzling.
