The only reason I picked up this game was because the guy on the cover was real cute. (I also needed a new RPG for my gameboy.) So I turned on the game and wow! It was amazing not only was Tony really cute but the graphix were fabulous, the story plot was superb and there was actully humer! (Something I find gameboy games to lack.) One real great thing about the game was that it had the best elemants from Dragon Warrior, Pokemon, Zelda and numerous other games. It also had a spin of its own that sets it apart from any other gameboy game. If you have a gameboy then you have to pick this one up. (You can find it by the cute kid on the cover!)
Worst battle system I've ever seen!

While overall the game is fun, the battle system drove me up the wall. Basically it takes you to a screen, where you have 2 rows of 4 cards each, the upper row being the enemy and the bottom row being your creatures. In order to get a creature to battle you have to summon it, and then it takes place on one of your cards. Then you pick the action that you want this creature to take and eventually, it will take it, which leads to another screen that shows an image of the attack. The whole process is way toooo long and slow and almost painful. There are way too many subtitles explaining each action, who took the damage and whether this creature is weak against the magic used. After the first couple of battles, I could have done very well without all these explanations. Probably the worst part was that in the dungeons you can't avoid the battles and their frequency is nerve wretching. I don't have much faith that I will ever finish this game. So, if you want to work on your patience, that is the game for you. If you want some action and fun, get something else.
Fun Game

A fun neat game that can use up a few hours of your day. Its sorta like pokemon, with monsters that fight each other. Its hard to beat like all RPG's. Its a good buy but there are better games out there.
