While there is combat in Mystery Dungeon, it is brought down to a different level and is revamped entirely. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time excels in both fun and challenge. The storyline is beyond impressive, and Treasure Town has been amplified beautifully and gives the player so much to do. The game is challenging, and at times can really work your brain muscles, because no two dungeons are ever the same.The graphics done in classic sprite style are adorable and innovative, giving this game a look of its own that seperates it from other games.All being said, this game deserves no less than 5 stars.
Time has a huge advantage over Darkness because it gives the player access to the Pokemon Lucario, which is extremely popular because it was featured in a Pokemon movie and it is highly loved by the younger audience of Pokemon (especially boys). Darkness has access to much weaker and less exciting Pokemon, such as Lopunny and Rotom, which is why Time is favored.The storyline is very involved and really pulls the player in, while still keeping it kid friendly and thought provoking. I'd recommend this game for kids ages 8 and up.There is little difference between Time and Darkness except the availability in Pokemon throughout the game. Albeit, the quantity is rough, but you should really be buying less intense games for your kids anyway.
(This gives the player "Poke", the game's currency of money. A lot of reviews complain about the reading level and quantity. It certainly is much improved from the previous Mystery Dungeon games, Red and Blue. The game gives you a much needed break from the stresses on constant battling in games such as Pokemon Diamond.
The previous games in this series lacked that and more, making the game annoying.There is almost no downside to this game unless you are too used to the usual Pokemon game that revolves around battling. It also adds a really addicting and useful minigame where you identify the footprints of Pokemon. So it's not only fun and gives you a break from dungeons, but it's useful and you can play it anytime).
Although my son can read, this was over the top. There was too much story and reading. Would not recommend it until about age 8 or so. I have a 6 year old who kept asking for Pokemon and I did'nt know which one to pick. Well as odds would have it I picked the wrong one.
This was a gift and don't see them playing it very often so I really don't know about it.
I was defeated in a dungeon and instead of given a game over screen I was presented with the option to be rescued via wifi. This feature adds total replay value to the game, being able to rescue not just NCPs, but real players. For this to be a Pokemon game it really incorporates an advanced RPG story. I selected that option and someone, somewhere rescued me and I was notfied of the rescue via a text message (which can be an e-mail also). There's a big joy that comes with knowing you rescued a real gamer. If you're into mystery dungeon type game play this could be one of the best games for you. I won't echo whats already been said in other reviews, but I will talk about something rarely brought up.What makes this game stand out from any other DS game is its wifi feature.
I can't find one flaw in this game. And all of the missions keep the game challenging and fun. It was hard, but I loved it. I am a big Pokemon fan, so I love Pokemon games. The graphics are bright and beautiful. It's beautiful. This game is flawless to me.
I never get bored with this game. I got through the storyline in a week. The story is actually fast, depending on how much you play the game. The story is very interesting and even has a few plot twists. This is easy at first, but it soon gets hard, but it wouldn't be very fun if it were easy, would it.
When I started playing Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, I fell in love with it. The dungeon designs are hard to figure out, but that's what keeps it interesting. I love all the color this game has. The music fits every scene, the dungeons are challenging and the guild members are lovely. So surprising.
