Description

Journey into a fantastical world on a quest for revenge in DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Dark Prince. Psaro is cursed and is unable to harm anything with monster blood. Now, he must become a Monster Wrangler to create an army for battle. The hunt for high-ranked monsters takes Psaro through the ever- changing seasons of Nadiria and its unique environments, with rivers of bubbling lava, mysterious ancient ruins, and soaring towers of cake. Along the way, Psaro meets the kind-hearted elf, Rose, who joins his adventure to seek out ever-stronger monsters. The key to Psaro's success lies with synthesis: the ability to combine two monsters and create a stronger offspring. Each new creation brings Psaro one step closer to his goal of becoming the Master of Monsterkind. Copyright 1998, 2023 SQUARE ENIX CO., LTD. All Rights Reserved.

  • Great game, not great graphics
Platform For Display: Nintendo Switch Edition: Standard
Wonderful game with great monsters and interesting story. The graphics are pretty simple with lots of draw distance issues and graphics pop-in. Load times are okay, but not super fast. Lots of switching between areas causes a lull in the action. The gameplay is a lot of rinse and repeat, which is fine if you enjoy that. If you are coming from Dragon Quest 11, you might find the graphics and level layouts surprisingly worse than you would like. ... show more

  • Amazing
Platform For Display: Nintendo Switch Edition: Standard
So much fun and addicting can barely get off it. I definitely recommend it. If you’re not sure try the demo and your save transfers over. Perfect for new people of the series or people who are old fans. The story line is very interesting too. A lot more fun than it should be.

Love the art. Love the story. There is something incredibly nostalgic about playing this entry that I haven’t quite put my finger on yet. Have thoroughly enjoyed it

  • A joy

Doesn't run super well on the Switch, but doesn't stop it from being a typical Dragon Quest game.

  • Enjoyable game, hope for updates, shouldn't've Nerfed the metal-type slimes
Platform For Display: Nintendo Switch Edition: Standard
It took me quite some time, after a failure on the part of the first Joker game, for me to get back into playing Dragon Quest Monsters games. And, I must say, I'm glad I got back into it. I'll say this much, that the gameplay is enjoyable, with in-game clues that help a gamer know what the next step should be. There are also online resources that'll help with synthesizing new and more powerful monsters. There's also at least one DLC that can help with capturing monsters a gamer has already synthesized, so that they don't have to go through the process of synthesizing them again. I hope there'll be a DLC in the future that'll add monsters to synthesize, say monsters from previous games that weren't originally included in this one. My one complaint with the game is with the metal-type slimes. One thing I liked in previous games was that I could easily breed metal slimes and their superior types and get pretty much unstoppable healers by giving them those healing skills. In this game, there are traits that can be synthesized into metal slimes that'll make them more useful for that purpose, but I just didn't like that, after getting a metal slime, for instance, with a healing spell, it'd use practically all its magic using the technique once. What's wrong with having an unstoppable healer on the team? ... show more
