    Single player can be beat in an hour, and the story focuses on characters I don't know but the game clearly expects you to recognize. Was this an anime tie in, or perhaps a sequel to a game that never made it to English?

    Either way, this is intended to be a faster paced online competitive game. This means this is not a good game to travel with, since you'll need constant internet access.

    Bad singleplayer experience, no adventure mode, no dungeons, only few tournaments :-(. It's a completely different game than it was on 3DS. Overpowered teams from beginning, no need to grind, lack of good tutorial for beginners. Unfortunately, a big disappointment.

    While I enjoy a good matching title, Puzzle & Dragons GOLD makes too many missteps, and I can’t recommend this version over the more robust, more entertaining mobile iteration.

    There are just 20 team leaders in the game; the 500 subs available from the gacha can only bring so much variety, and pale in comparison to the almost 6,000 available in Puzzle & Dragons itself. We've been playing that game for seven years, and it still finds new ways to excite us. That this barren, boring work should share its name is an outrage. [Issue#343, p.122]

    Maybe if the game had collaboration monsters or some sort of monster leveling system I could care just a little more.
