What our customer's say!

"HOURS later...", My 7-year-old son got this as a gift for Christmas, along with a DS and 3 other games (Zelda, and a couple of older Mario titles, I think). This is the game he played right out of the box and continued to play for the next couple of days - whenever he could, and for as long as he was allowed.

Honestly, this game had mainly been purchased as "filler", believing that he would start playing Zelda first and not ever end up getting around to this one (at least, not for a while) - and with the price so much cheaper than many other DS games, it seemed like a decent pick.

I take great pleasure in admitting that I was wrong - this game has been well worth the purchase. Considering the cost and the amount of hours played already, it turned into a flat-out bargain!

I cannot go into details regarding the game itself, as I have not played. Besides, I believe that others have covered most of that in depth. But what I can say is this - the game was not too complicated (he tried Zelda but initially had a hard time getting the hang of it), he played for as long as he could, and I kept hearing giggles during game play. All of those together tell me that it is well worth the 4 stars (not educational, or it would have gotten 5).

"What a Great Game!", Now this game is fun! I only have a few hours into it but so far I'm really enjoying it. It's a cute game and a lot of fun. I haven't done a tank battle yet but so far this game is really enjoyable. It's not very hard, yet....
Another reviewer said if you like the box art you'll like the game.
I agree with that. Fun, quirky and cute. Now if they can just bring over Digi Charat - Digi Communication, that would be awesome!

"Both of my sons love this game!", I personally haven't played this game but both of my 14- and 10-year-old sons love this game. Especially my 10-year-old gets tired of playing any games after several game play, but for this one he hasn't quit playing; whenever he has time he's playing Rocket Slime.

So I guess this Rocket Slime must be a real fun game!!

"Disappointed Old Timer", I'm definitely not the target audience at 34 years old. I did like the idea of real-time 'combat'/movement. I enjoyed Zelda Phantom Hourglass, but could not get into this one. I played about 6 hours of gameplay...enough to go through several parts of the story and fight my a tank battle. I realize that others enjoy this game, but unfortunately I could not get into it.

I enjoy the old Dragon Quest games along with the Final Fantasy games. If you like those, then you might be interested in Dragon Quest Monsters:Joker

I'm still looking for a good 'real-time combat' game other than Zelda. Something in the form of the old Secret of Mana games! (I've tried the newer ones :( )

"Lots of fun and a good starter game for your DS", What a fun RPG this turned out to be. I recently purchased a Nintendo DS, opting for the basic kit, which comes with no game. Since I didn't want to drop full price on one of the more popular DS games, I grabbed this, as much for the price as because of the cover of the box. I didn't expect much of it, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Like I said earlier, this game is an RPG, so expect to grind a little. Leveling up your tank is the main purpose of grinding in this game, and while you'll probably have the required gold, you may not have the required items, which you'll need to collect. The only real quibble I have with this game is that items are not always plentiful, and farming them is nearly impossible because of the level design.

If you want a pick-up-and-play game, this probably isn't for you. Some of the quests may seem repetitive, and not everyone will care for that.

It took me about 17 hours to finish the main story of the game, rescuing all the inhabitants of Slimenia. I would say that I still have about 5 hours' worth of side quests to go, which represents a pretty decent value to me. Some full PC RPGs are shorter than this.

That said, this game packs a lot of variety; there are boss battles, tank battles, side quests, puzzle solving... There's nothing too difficult about it, but it presents enough of a challenge to keep your interest. While it's not as action-packed as a Zelda game, it definitely holds its own in the realm of RPGs.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Pocket This Slime", I'm actually pleasantly surprised at the number of reader reviews there are for this game, as supposed to a more publicized game like Contact. Or maybe this was publicized, I dunno. I picked up Rocket Slime several weeks after it was released, and only because I found a used copy of it at EB Games for 24.99, and the EB card offers 10% discount (plus there was a promotional additinal 15% off)

And boy was it a good pickup. It was sitting in my (at the time) small pile of DS games. On the 5 hour flight to the East Coast, I decided to pop it into my DS and ended up playing it even while I was deplaning and waiting for my baggage at the baggage claim.

There's two main venues of action, the first being the main RPG in which you go around fighting as a blue slime in an active fighting RPG. The second are these hilariously fun tank battles, which aren't too difficult, but fun nonetheless.

My only complaint with this game was that it was ridiculously easy. I don't think I died at any point in the game, neither in the tank battle or the dungeon progression. Still, it's a small taint on a fun, time consuming RPG that's hard to put down.

Rocket Slime is one of the more underrated DS titles available in my opinion, mainly because it was overshadowed by New! Super Mario Bros. when it was released. It's a very pleasant pickup, and a very enjoyable time on your DS, and I highly recommend it.

$29.99 retail, hasn't gone very far from that, but easy to find used for cheaper. The retail is worth the game.

"Incredibly Charming", This may seem strange to you, but I can summarize this review in one sentence: If you like the cover art, you'll like the game.

Here's the thing - it's charming. It's full of puns, both terrible and great, often both at the same time. The gameplay is offbeat, the characters are funny, and the game was clearly made by people who loved making it. It has a certain ... verve that almost no other game has, and if there's something about that cover art that catches you - the bright colors, the irrepressible smile on the face of the blue blob leaping out at you - then you'll probably find things in the game that you'll like in a similar fashion.

If, on other other hand, you look at the cover art and think, "Man, that looks stupid," you probably won't like the game all that much. Which is sort of a pity, because it's really quite excellent. For me, it's one of the games that gets the most time in my DS, and despite not really using the touchscreen aspect of the system (save for "customizing" some artwork), it's a perfect game to pass a little time. Charming through and through.

"Way to repetitive", I'm writing this review simply because I was shocked to see this game had a 5 star review. This game is fun... at first. However, you begin to realize that the game has you doing the same thing over and over again. body slam enemies and items and throw them onto a train for stocking, or into a cannon for ammo. I played this game for about 5 days. The first day I really enjoyed It, and found it both engaging and different. By the second day I was wondering when it was going to start to get more challenging. and by the fifth day I had beaten it and was so sick of the repetitive game play that I had no interest in the tank master mode or any other replay value and returned it to the store. I think children under the age of 10 will get alot out of this game, and it might even be a good introduction to the RPG genre. Anyone looking for a game with substance will be thoroughly dissapointed.

"Surprisingly enjoyable and fun", Dragon Quest is probably the most popular RPG series on the planet next to something called Final Fantasy; and with this entry for the DS, the RPG series turns out a fun and enjoyable spin-off that even those unfamiliar with the series can get some enjoyment out of. Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime finds you taking control of the little blue slime blobs that have appeared in every Dragon Quest game, and you are on a mission to save your friends before it's too late. Taking advantage of the DS' stylus and touch screen support, Rocket Slime provides a great amount of fun via the slime mechanics and use of tanks in combat. Not to mention that the game itself looks great and is popping with color and detailed animations. Longtime Dragon Quest veterans will recognize many characters, sounds, and monsters from the long running series as they progress through their quest, which clocks in at a decent enough length, but hardcore RPG fans will be disappointed at the lack of difficulty that can make your quest all the more shorter. This is Rocket Slime's most glaring flaw, but the good definitely outweighs the bad here. The battles are fun to play and watch, and the multiplayer elements are a welcome addition as well. All in all, Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime is a game that you can't really go wrong with if you enjoy RPG action on your DS, and longtime fans of the series will definitely enjoy this.

"A must have", Do you like adventure games? Get this. Do you like collecting things? Get this. Do you like Dragon Quest? Get this. Do you like cutesy monsters? Get this. Do you own a DS? Get this. This is a great little game that manages to be fun from start to finish without ever getting monotonous. It does feel a bit short, but it IS a handheld game so you can't exactly expect an 80 hour epic. This is the sort of game that makes you remember why simple is good and less is more. It's easy to pick up and play, and it's easy to get addicted to.
