  • Summary: Prepare yourself for a world that's rife with evil demons, special powers, and magic spells. Jin (the main character of Light Version), Akira (the main character of Dark Version), and Lena have accidentally released demonic creatures, and now it's up to you to capture them all. Follow these characters as they collect more than 350 demons, and unlock demons from other versions of the game. The Demon Fusion system lets you create new demons or strengthen existing ones. You can also link two Game Boy Advances to enhance your assortment of demon allies. Expand

  1. DemiKids (both Light and Dark versions) are what the last Pokemon entires should have been... If you have any affinity for the GBA Pokemon games, DemiKids is a must-buy. [Sept 2003, p.126]

    The game’s storyline and Demon collecting aspect more than make up for these SNES shortcomings, providing gamers with an entertaining, albeit dark RPG.
  3. DemiKids doesn't stack up all that well against Nintendo's "Pokémon" games in terms of variety, fun, or overall cohesiveness, but it is decent enough to provide most players with a healthy 10 to 20 hours of play time.
  4. So much of this game is derived from Pokemon that it's shameless.

    In all realism, although a terrific game, it lacks some of the more user-friendly aspects of Pokemon, Demikids is a challenging RPG for Hardcore gamers, but if you do not like RPGS, or are not a Die-Hard gamer, Pass this one by. Expand

    Well, i don't think it's as good as Pokemon, but it is very creative. The creatures are more detailed, but when it comes to the way the battle system is set up, it's not very easy to read. Expand

    This game is horrible and makes pong look like The greatest RPG ever. I mean when will these poor fools learn that the pokemon fad died years ago, and now all those kids that played pokemon are dead due to frequently being beat up, by everyone. Expand
