    By far, one of the best Inuyasha games you’ll play and one deeply engrossing role-playing game for your Nintendo DS.

    It's a decent enough RPG with dull turn-based combat, story integration and item-management conventions that were state-of-the-art in 1992. [Mar. 2007, p.88]

    It drives you bonkers in the first half hour, each of the ten trillion fights dull and easy. [Apr 2007, p.70]

    The resulting storyline isn't quite Final Fantasy quality by any means, but series devotees will find plenty to admire here. Still, given the constant interruption for battles and the heinous dungeon layouts, we suspect that none but the most devoted fans of the series will care.

    I bought this game as my first DS, and I love the storyline. They could use a little more work on the navigation.

    This game is an insult to the Inyasha series. You would have to be a huge fan-girl to enjoy it. Im an Inuyasha fan, I read the new chapter each week, I even have my own Inuyasha homepage, but this game just shouldn't have been made. :P… Expand
