Rocket Ahead with this great DQ title
Ok, the first thing that came to mind when I booted this game up was that it looked like Zelda. A Link to The Past to be exact. Only Link looked like a blue slime (Rocket), rather then a Keebler Elf in white tights. And while I did feel the gameplay different quite abit from the Nintendo classic, I think Zelda fans would do good to check this one out. From all i've played, your character Rocket can do quite abit to get him through his journey. Being a slime not restricted by bone, he has the ability to stretch his self, stun enemies by snapping into them, and lift enemies and objects.
Perhaps the best aspect of RS is the tank battles. These are pretty deep, but not deep enough to scare off newbies or young kids There's various ammo types players can use for their tanks, and you also have the ability to customize your tank somewhat by using rescued allies to enhance it.The whole tank aspect of the game is something i'd like to see more of in a sequel someday. Heck, i'd love to see a RS game based entirely on it.
Musicly, the game has sorta a bouncy soundtrack to it. While I didn't feel much of it was too memorable, I also didn't find any of it annoying. Best of all though, it fits the content of the game, and thats important.
In the end, I would highly reccomend Rocket Slime to anyone looking for a fun, lighthearted adventure for their DS. Even if you have never played anything in the "Dragon Quest" series, you'll most likely enjoy the game. Phantasystar77
