could be better but the premise is peak
Este juego impulsó mi amor por los "Monster Tamming", de inicio a fin lo borda en narrativa, diseño e interés mantenido en el recorrido, con un ligero pero buen post-game como añadido a una experiencia casi perfecta
lo recuerdo como el mejor juego de la historia me lo kiero volver a jugar ahora de mayor
Dragon Quest but Pokémon
An extremely unusual creature-raising sim, mostly to its benefit but sometimes not.
Whereas Pokemon and SMT offer huge, linear worlds and DWM 1-2 have procedurally-generated dungeons, Joker has a small set of mid-sized sandboxes. They look good, but repeatedly traipsing over the same ground gets old—and this is a grindy enough game that you have to do that. Fert Isle is the worst; it's too linear.
Joker's full-3D, over-the-shoulder graphics are very impressive for a DS game; I struggle to think of another DS RPG that took the same approach or another DS game of any genre with such detailed models. It's Dragon Quest, so the monster designs are great, though the palette swaps are a little disappointing coming from other raising sims that aren't Monster Rancher.
The soundtrack is good but tragically unvaried. Of the seven explorable islands, five share a single theme; all of the dungeons but the last share a theme; and so on.
I don't like how the skill point system forces you to choose between interesting skills and vital stat point boosts, or the way it pushes you to spend a monster's skill points before fusion (which requires you to swap them into your party, annoyingly).
The English text is well-written and well-edited.

Pokemon with Dragon Quest monsters, pretty good.
Very nice game for NDS.

Necesita DEMASIADO grindeo, los niveles están del asco. Pero gracias a que puse cheat de experiencia lo disfruté bien y realmente es muy entretenido. Los bichos están cool, el sistema de evoluciones y fusiones y tales es bastante profundo y adictivo, si dan ganas de hacer muchas combinaciones, mas los ataques y las habilidades cambiantes. En general tiene mucha libertad de team building como me gusta de los juegos de captura de monstruos. Bastante bueno en general, igual es un Pokémon, debia hacerlo muy mal para no gustarme xd.
crazy technically impressive for the DS, lot of grinding needed unfortunately
Mon tout premier Dragon Quest. Le jeu est très bon mais j'ai jamais réussi à le finir c'était trop dur pour moi quand j'étais petit. Je dois le refaire pour prendre ma revanche.
Très sympa, une map sympa et un bestiaire varié, il me semble que je n'avais pas beaucoup avancé dans le jeu (qui vu aujourd'hui n'est pas très beau) Musique plutôt sympa
Le jeu est trop kiffant, c'est juste dommage qu'il n'y ait quasi 0 postgame et qu'il manque de persos secondaires
Tiene una cantidad de farmeo insana, pero tiene un no se qué que me hace viciarme y pasármelo genial.
Uno de los juegos que más veces he rejugado, aunque es una historia muy sencilla, es muy original y funciona de sobra para introducirte en el juego, los personajes tienen mucha carisma (base mi personalidad en el prota) y es el primer Monsters que jugué, así que lo recuerdo con mucho cariño
Is not bad, but is not great.
Honestly I remember little from it, but adquiring new monsters was a hussle.
