    Kind of ironic that some criticize it as a Pokemon ripoff, when in fact Pokemon essentially lifted its entire "recruit and train monsters" system from the original Megami Tensei games on the NES and SNES (of which Demikids is a side-story). It is unfortunate, though, that the formerly rich and well-developed demon negotiation system is so limited in these games.

    I think this game is alot better than Pokemon, to be honest...although I love them both. This is an awesome game...definitely worth adding to your GBA SP Library.

    DemiKids has a finer pedigree than most, but the rest of us are still waiting for these things to grow a spine. A curiosity at best. [Nov 2003, p.91]

    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.
