well its not the best game out there on the PSP but I like it.
Good:
-some good in depth strategy
-its funny at times
-its challenging
Bad
-If you lose you start right from the beginning of the game
-takes a good amount of time to get a good grasp of how to play the game
(Took me about maybe an hour or two)
Story
Basically you've been summoned by some kind of I guess magician I forget well its something like that(Edit to the review made a day later, The persons name is badman). And basically you need to create a dungeon to stop these heroes that are trying to kidnap the guy who summoned you. Sounds a bit complicated doesn't it. Well to make it simpler you know those dungeon crawlers where you're the hero out to kill monsters in dungeons. Well that's basically what this is only in reverse. You build a dungeon full of monsters so you can kill the hero(s) in each level.
Gameplay
Well the game sounds easy right? Wrong! In fact the only reason why I put the game difficulty for my review at "just right" was because I developed a strategy (with the help of the tips you get if you lose) to help get me through the levels even though I've failed around half a dozen times, but that adds to all the enjoyment of the game developing and structuring your dungeon in a way to stop the good guys from kidnapping the person who summoned you. If you thought that was all you need to find a right balance of monsters in your dungeon so now its one of those grow and evolve sort of game because if you say don't have enough slimemosses (basic foundation of all life in your dungeon there blobs of goo) it effects all the monsters in the dungeon because then you wont be able to get more stronger monsters for 2 reasons. First other monsters I.E. bugs use them as a food source so they can grow into bugs with wing and then other monsters like lizard men feed off the bugs so without slime you aren't going to have much of a dungeon. Second the slime are made of nutrients in which the spread around into other soil the more nutrients in a tile of soil the better the monster like lizard men or demons. Same thing goes for spirits they spread around mana and if enough is in a tile you can get a fairy or a dragon.
graphics
are okay but they are like GBA graphics
Sound/sfx
Okay music and sfx no problems here
Improvements
-More monsters
-bigger place to make a bigger dungeon
Overall a good game but can take a while to get use too, but it's a good Game and can keep you busy and its fun.
