    While, it's not flawless, this is a great addition to the DQ series. It combines my two favorite genres in one, On-rails action and traditional RPG. The combo works wonders, it's just simply too fun, slicing enemies about, and leveling up to tackle any problem. The only real complaint I have, is that sometimes the controls don't work to their fullest. Still, this is my While, it's not flawless, this is a great addition to the DQ series.

It is on parr with Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Dead or Alive exteme Beach volley ball (Also by Nintendo). This game is such soooooo good, its amazing. I literally nutted TWICE. to this game. The mechanics is simple. Swing you sword baby ! That it. Swing it. Swing it rn. Ive never had a massive floaty, my pubes literally sprouted up. Its that amazing. Its just sooooooo goood. This game (by rockstar games) is a god sent, literally in 2:3 of the bible, Jesus predicted this amazing game. And we must thank our lord for this. I will marry this game, this game is the prpohet. In the game, you have a sword and its really cool and fun, and yeha. also you swing the sword and kill the demons that satin sent you. Would recommend.. My nephew is really enjoying this game, as am i. Expand

    A simple but fun on-rails slasher. [May 2008, p.84]

    It isn’t the prettiest title for the Wii, but if RPGs tickle your fancy, it’s still worth a try.
  3. If you're looking for an on-rails slasher that is good for 7-10 hours, you will probably enjoy this title. If you’re looking for a full-fledged RPG experience, however, you’re better off looking elsewhere.
