The instant I saw the trailer for this game I knew it would be a day one purchase for me. It melds the simplistic block style building of minecraft with the charming dragon quest atmosphere. Building structures is incredibly simple, and the blueprint system makes it even better. I love that there's an actual story that goes along with all the building, and in addition, there's still a "creative" mode where you get free reign to build whatever you desire, however you desire. Graphics are very chamring; colors are vibrant, gameplay is very smooth with no hitches and controls are very tight and responsive. Without giving too much of the story away, it's a "what if" scenario, where the hero of the very first dragon quest game (dragon warrior in the united states at the time; remember the nintendo power promo where you subscribe and get the first game for free?) chooses the "bad" ending of the game. It's incredibly charming and fun, and very easy to pick up and play. Recommended for youngsters and dragon quest fans alike.
