Children of Mana - DS

Not The Best, Not The Worst

Surely, this game will please fans of RPGs with it's classic "save the girl from the bad guy" storyline. This RPG will not change the genre, or bring in any new RPG fans. It's just a game to play if you're bored at the office. Sure, the whole dungeon crawling thing is nice, but every time you get to the next level in a dungeon you realize the whole damn thing is repetitive. The graphics are solid, but that doesn't mean this game is great. Basically after you beat the story, you try to find something that doesn't die easily to level you up so you can wield the strongest weapons. After you beat the story, basically you are stronger than everything so it takes a while to actually level up, and you'll be bored before you even level. Picking from one of the dainty childish anime looking characters is boring, because there is barely anything in the way of character customization. You give your character new weapons and clothes, but they always look the same. The gem system is intuitive, but it doesn't make this game worth much more than a standard RPG. Magic becomes useless later in the game, because using the gems that level them up take far too much space in your gem case to have any that boost attack power. As I said, this game is bascially your standard RPG. Not the best, not the worst. Like Jim Carrey in A Series Of Unfortunate Events.
