Ah yes, the adorable little slime. Who wouldn't love it?
Meet Rocket, he's a slime. That's right, a slime. This game stars slimes (and other fiends from Dragon Quest!). They live in their own little world, peacefully and happily. As expected, all of the characters are filled with a lot of character, which is one of the things that makes Rocket Slime so appealing! Just about each character has come to life through some of the best localization in years! The cute creatures and their home island are brimming with life!
The gameplay is fairly standard. Rocket Slime does not feature much touch screen use (aside from some really engrossing minigames!). The gameplay is fairly standard and you will be able to do just about everything with the A button. While difficult to explain, you can pick up enemies (and allies) with the A button as well. There are also puzzles and the sort. This simply gameplay can get extremely addicitng, but what's more stunning is the tank battles!
Eventually you and your enemies will roll into their tanks and have a free for all. This is when the game gets exiting as there is action flying all over the place. The game gets fun, crazy, and all out whacky! There is also a lot of customization for RPG Enthusiasts, such as ammo, tank, and character options.
The graphics, while only a step above GBA graphics, look great. (Especially on the DS Lite! Note to everyone: GET A DS LITE!!!) The world of the slimes is brilliantly created. Animations are also whacky and fun.
The sound is fair as well, tunes are happy and fun, suiting this game's overall theme.
Rocket Slime is at best, simply put, fun. While the game takes only a dozen or so hours to complete, those who want everything will be spending MUCH MUCH longer. This game is perfect for kids, those looking for a fun DS game, RPG enthusiasts, Square Enix Fans, or Dragon Quest Fanatics. GET ROCKET SLIME NOW!!
