Not only that, butFor a Pokémon game, the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games tend to have much more rich story, and this remake is no exception. Not only that, but an excellent soundtrack and numerous quality of life improvements have made this a pretty solid entry in the series, in my opinion.
   
   That said, this game can be an exercise in patience. The game play will be fairly easy at first (perhaps too easy?), and it, in fact, is a bit easier than the original Red Rescue Team/Blue Rescue Team. However, it really ramps up as you near the end of the game. The post-credits game play, as always, is the real test of your skills.
   
   Note that this plays almost nothing like the main series Pokémon games by Game Freak, so don't go into this game expecting it to play anything like that. Of course, that's part of the reason why I like this series so much.… Expand

   I’ve seen a ton of complaints about how it doesn’t match up with the original. It’s a remake, not a port. Of course there are differences.
   
   The only actual complaints I have are that a handful of the models and animations look weird, and I wish there was a toggle between the old map style and the current. Neither of these are a big deal. The other common complaints either have a workaround (deselect all moves and you effectively have your basic attack back albeit nerfed to have recoil) or are debatably an improvement (streamlined friend areas).
   
   Aside from that, it’s the same game I enjoyed except the gameplay is actually good for people who like the genre, it looks and sounds better, and all of the frustrations of the originals have been removed.… Expand

Un estilo visual precioso, tiene unos añadidos como el paseo automático, que tus compañeros recojan los objetos y otros tantos más hacen el juego más disfrutable. Y algo que agradezco de verdad es que los objetos y enemigos aparezcan en el mapa. Lo único malo es que si tienes un compañero con ataques a distancia va a atacar a los enemigos y a ti no te deja hacer nada. Pero también puedes decirle que no use esos movimientos así que en general estoy contento con este remake y esperando que saquen el de exploradores del cielo… Expand

   - - (FOR VETERANS) What has changed - -
   
   - The combat system is pretty much the same that you can find in Super MD: normal attacks are removed, moves get better in power, accuracy and PP the more you use them, easy move selection with ZL + A/B/X/Y, customizable menu shortcuts as well with the ZR button, now changing leader is available right from the start which leaves room for fancy gameplay when combined with different Tactics.
   - Although there are little additions to the roster of species, this game includes moves from up to 7th gen. Also, long range ones like flamethrower or bubble can no longer hit your party members.
   - IQ skills and gummis removed - now each Pokemon has one "rare quality" that can be obtained via special gummis (that also boost stats randomly): rainbow gummis and DX gummis, the latter will always give you one while the former may not. These rare qualities benefit the whole party, not just the user.
   - You can recruit any Pokemon that you defeat, but they will leave after finishing the dungeon unless you have their respective Rescue Camp, formerly known as Friend Areas (they give you a bit of money tho).
   - You can enter a dungeon with only 3 members, but up to 5 more pokemon can join your party until you have to send someone home. These 5 extra pokemon cannot be used as leaders, nor can have their tactics and moves changed.
   - Rescue Camps are now all available from the start... for a reasonable price that ranges from 500-1000 for the initial camps to 3000-9000 for the late-game camps (same price as in the originals).
   - The Makuhita Dojo has been completely renewed. Now it's basically a tool for polishing your moves.
   - New items, like wands and new orbs.
   - You can see the enemies and items on the map now? For some reason? You can't see the stairs however.
   
   - - Conclussion - -
   
   Very happy with this game. Feels fresh and addicting as ever and apparently the story remains untouched, which is a good thing.
   
   Veterans, this remake is a must. Support this entry and maybe one day Explorers will also get a remake.
   
   Newcomers: If you're a Pokémon fan, Mystery Dungeon's unique gameplay and genuinely touching story are likely to make it your favourite series from the franchise, but if you are not sure I recommend playing the demo. It might feel like a cakewalk, but, honestly, it's just the tip of the iceberg.… Expand

   -Autoplay is Useless this is not a Mobile Game i think in the Makuhita Dojo only it makes sense because of time to save.
   -One of the Best Things in the Old Games was that you can visit your Other Pokemon Friends in their Homes and now its only a Menu thats really Dissapointing.… Expand
