The Dark Prince is comfortably the worst creature collector game I've ever played. It is clunky and controls poorly and the combat is dull and simple- you spend the game going from place to place autobattling in between cutscenes, seemingly forever.
モンスターズがすきなので楽しめたんですけど、キャラのモーションが手抜きだったり特性のシステムがあんまり好みではなかったので従来のモンスターズが好きな人にはおすすめできません。でも検索配合のシステムだけは神でした。

If you have played DWM this will be fun and easy to pickup
if you like monster collection games and Dragon quest this game blends both well
Reminds me of the Gameboy days. Even some of the sounds are almost exactly like they were. This game is a Pokémon like where you can "catch" and battle with the monsters from the Dragon Quest universe. Breeding is called synthesize. You lose both of your "parent" monsters, but the new monsters gets stats from both and you can choose some of the traits from the parents. The areas are fairly big and diverse as well as the monsters their in. Some activities of the map are constrained to 1 of the 4 seasons (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter). The only thing wrong I found with that mechanic is that you would have to wait for a particular season to the thing you want to do for a given area having cleared it. You can let your monsters fight on their own or you can "order" them on what to do and who to attack if you prefer that method.
ストーリーは大したことないが、DQMやりたい欲を満たしたいだけなら十分楽しめる。 なんでもいいからモンスター配合してぇよぉ!って人におすすめ。
This franchise has a special place in my heart so I am probably biased. A big fan of the original Game Boy/Color Dragon Warrior Monsters games. I replayed them multiple times. The best part is the breeding/synthesis. Knowing that certain combos of monsters create special, new monsters that can only be put together that way is the whole allure of the game. The story here is very blah, but I got this game on sale for $10, and almost bought it when it came out for $40 but was deterred by all the negative reviews of it on Steam as compared to Switch. For $10, this game is a borderline must buy if you like the genre.
Perfect game, I bought it on Nintendo switch and finished it. i emulated it on my phone and finished it, then i emulated it on my laptop and finished it, and now after 1 year I am buying it in steam and I want to finish the game for the 4th time.
Great gameplay, been having lots of fun. The graphic optimisation should be a standard accross the gaming industry. I mean the game barely strains even my laptop, that I usualy don't use for gaming. And the framerate is smooth.
