Mystery dungeon explorers of darkness is what ive been playing on the Nintendo DS. In true pokemon style the other version of the game is explorers of time. The game is alright, being only an hour and a half into the game I would say it is slightly above average. The game features very bright graphics and some pretty good game music. The premis of the game is to take your team of pokemon (you are a pokemon yourself) and fullfill different jobs by completing tasks in certain dungeons. Basically it is a rouge-like dungeon crawler built in the pokemon universe. A rouge like game involves losing your items and money whenever you are killed and you then have to do that dungeon all over. These games are known for difficulty, but this game isnt too bad being that it was built for the younger generation. The gameplay is ok. The dungeons so far have been slightly different but they are largly the same thing. It is an interesting take on the pokemon universe and is not a bad game. The things I like most so far included the story (which is pretty darn good), the graphics, and the music.

Early Rating: 7.5 out of 10 (slightly above average)
