DQH: Rocket Slime Review by Kastalas

Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime is an incredible game! The game itself plays a lot like some of the past Legend of Zelda titles. Little Rocket's town has been ransacked by the Plob and he must go out and save all his friends and family. He manages this by "elasto-blasting", or stretching himself out and then flying like a rubberband into enemies and objects. He can catch and carry up to three things at a time and bring them back to town for the rescue or to be used later on as ammo or alchemy fodder. This in itself is alright at best, but the fun really takes place during the Tank battles. Rocket and up to three of his friends take control of a huge slime shaped tank and start blasting all sorts of things at the enemy tanks. Ammo can range from rocks to arrows or even one of the crew! The Tank is fully customizable with upgrades to HP, type of ammo and who will be in the crew. The music is decent for a DS title and the characters are fun and lovable. My only qualm about the game is it's length. It takes roughly 5 to 15 hours to run through depending if you are trying to complete all the sidequests. If you like adventure and roleplaying games and don't have a lot of time to spare, this is the title for you!
