Could see this being fun to play against some friends but since that is over wifi that time has passed. You get some tutorials then you can do some battles. Its okay in the state that its in now.

A pretty neat strategic game done by none others by the same of Fire Emblem: Intelligent System.
Dunno why the hate here. It's really funny and at least it will be playable, unlike Tact.

This game could have been great if there were more than 10 single player levels. You essentially have a tutorial level that showcases all of the fun tactics RPG mechanics used, and then your reward for completing it is absolutely nothing. You can play multiplayer or just infinitely play randomly generated levels with no goals. Still I'm sure this game would be fun to play with friends and it is a high quality game for a DSiware title.

A fun strategy game that seems to lack content. Surface level fun to be found.

Insanely easy and comically short. If you like Dragon Quest you'll enjoy the monsters, but it's a bit too simple for its own good.

Wow, what a bummer. Was hoping that this being developed by Intelligent Systems and having ‘Wars’ in the title meant this would just end up being Advance Wars but with monsters from the Dragon Quest series. Was also hoping this might have some sort of Dragon Quest Monsters kind of story, too, or something akin to ‘Rocket Slime’. Unfortunately, it’s just a little mostly-multiplayer game with the only single player being a training mode. The strategy element doesn’t feel right because the amount of strategy one might use is about the aame one might for any turn-based RPG. I might’ve bothered to complete the training mode as a stand-in for the campaign if the gameplay wasn’t intensely boring. Feels like a mini-game that might be included in a Mario Party-esque spin-off of this series. I guess I didn’t really remember that most DSiWare was designed around updating the DS with smartphone-style apps, so most of the games designed for DSiWare end up not really being full-fledged games. I have to go back and download those couple that I really loved on the DSi back in the day, though, and have some fun with some Real Shit.
