Game Vault

Honestly as a long time fan of Dragon Quest/Warrior Monsters games, I was a bit let down. I think the individual zones having their own very small stories lead to an incredibly weak story with characters I did not care about. I dislike most of the characters and had no attachment to them. The music felt repetitive and the art felt very uninspired for a lot of the monsters. Overall the game felt much worse than the GBC version games in every way, art, story and music. The one upside of the game was the gameplay, once the fusions started rolling the game was very fun and it was rather easy to grind out. I would say I spent around 25% of my gameplay grinding and fusing, which is not a lot for a game like this. I don't see myself coming back to play this game unlike others in the series.

The game was fun for the first 50% of the game, but then the games won't tell you where to go next which ruins the fun. Once my monsters evolved, the hype of the game died. I ended up using legendaries to beat the game faster. The combat system felt like a very simple pokemon with extra odds to miss.

This game started out so fun, but ended up being super tedious towards the end. The gameplay loop stays unchanged for the entire game. The game looks good for a 3d pokemon game, but I ended up only using Feraligatr and Garchomp the entire game. Other than needing Mega Floette, I don't think I'll play this game ever again.

This game was one of the best examples of a minimalist story. The dungeons were very fun for the most part but there were some very annoying ones. The quality of life changes to the game made a huge difference. My favorite part was seeing the original cutscenes with the different resolution.

Very fun game though very similar to the previous game. This is a very cozy game and the score is boosted by my nostalgia for Digimon.

The gameplay is very sparse and is super easy. The story was interesting but requires multiple playthroughs.

A very short SMT game (ignoring the optional terrible side dungeon). The characters were interesting and it felt great to play a short SMT game. Would probably never play it again.

Game is just a cozy Digimon raising game. The story is there and is pretty terrible but this plays heavily to my nostalgia.
