Don't let the "kiddie" look deceive you; Rocket Slime is one of the most enjoyable games for the Nintendo DS, and will entertain gamers of all ages.

Play as the loveable slime, Rocket, as he sets of on a quest to rescue 100 of his kidnapped friends and restore peace to the kingdom. The game is played from an overhead perspective, and plays similarly to the 2D Zelda games.

You'll encounter characters from the Dragon Quest series, but unlike most spinoffs, this is an excellent game that doesn't simply rely on cute homages to its big brothers.

Rocket Slime should fulfill any DS owner's need for Action-RPG until the new Zelda game arrives next year, and will no doubt be just as enjoyable even after that point.

Fun game for gamers of all ages

When a lot of people see the cover art on the box they won't think much of it and many might be turned off by it's cartoonish visuals, but if you leave because of this you will be leaving one awesome game. Everything about this game seems fresh and inventive. A lot of the game revolves around rescuing your friends who have been kidnapped by the Plob, to do this you will have to use your skills and your giant tank, thats right a giant tank. So in this sense you are getting two games in one, part platformer when you are the hero going around the environment looking for friends, and part strategy during tank battles. The controls in this game are very easy to pick up. Tank battles are very easy to pick up, but near latter stages test your skills and strategies. My favorite thing about this game is the sense that you can collect many things and use them to update your tank, and even after you have beaten the game, you will still be able to go back keep finding new things to collect. Overall I would give this great game the honor of being one of the greatest DS games I have ever seen, and I would call it a must own for anybody with a DS

For any fan of cute and fun games!

This is the game every Dragon Quest fan has been waiting for. The ability to actually play as the universal favorite monster, Slime, can't be passed up! Even if you you've never played a Quest game before, this is still a highly engaging game with solid gameplay.

You start your adventure as a young slime named Rocket, who's hometown has been attacked by an evil group known as the Plob. The plob have kidnapped all of your friends- firing you up to travel across several stages searching for your comrades, freeing them, and gathering items of value to return to the broken-down town. Of course the Plob won't just sit back and let you do this- so they come to combat you with a tank, but that's ok! -You have one too! Imagine that: Playing a character as cool as a slime AND getting to wage battle against tanks!
I don't want to delve into the details for it would take far to much time, and likely spoil some of the experience.

Take my word for it (It's good! It really is!), you really aught to buy this game, if you don't- you'll probably regret it later. We've ALL experienced that...^^

Ah yes, the adorable little slime. Who wouldn't love it?

After the huge success of Dragon Quest VIII in North America, audiences get to be treated to something fairly different. While nothing like the main series, being a spinoff and all, this game still provides an exiting adventure, and is just what some have been waiting for on the Nintendo DS!

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!!

Slime time!

A Game good for all ages with fun features and characters. exploring, beating up bad guys and collecting items is really fun. The tank battles however can start getting fast paced and this gives younger players a challenge while giving older gamers a fun game that can be equally challenging to finding out what deck of ammo is best and the task of completing all the challenges and item collecting in the game. As well the reactions characters make during events can ber rather funny. There is also
references to other games in the game such as" DQ swords and DQ8.

I think this game is one for everyones game collection and would be enjoyed by everyone.

Rocket Slime from Square Enix is what you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. This is probally one of the best games I've played on the DS, the gameplay is smooth, even though there isn't much use of the touch screen, it evens out with gameplay. The graphic are amazing colorful bright and bring the Slime to life. The music is great, the best part of the game is the multiplayer, playing against friends is great. If only there was Wi-Fi, all in all Rocket Slime is well worth the 35$ you get everything you'd expect from a Square Enix game.

Rocket Slime is the best game ever! It is so awesome! You HAVE to buy it! It's all about the Plob, who come and "slime-nap" everyone except you, because they mistake you for a worm. The Plob has lots of minions. One is called a platypunk. To defeat enimies like that, you have to attack them by "Elasto Blast"ing them. You can also
battle them in tank battles with your Schleiman Tank,(as shown on th cover.) You can change your tank ammo, crew, and HP once you get to a certain point in the game.You can even do tank battles with your freinds! So buy this game today, because I guarantee endless fun!
