    It's a highly addicting game. You are the pokemon and you form a rescue team to save pokemon around the world from natural disasters. Even with simplistic graphics, the game allows some customization and freedom like the main series pokemon games.

    It is fun different and takes alot longer to drop off and even after you beat the main game you are able to keep playing new misions over and the post game is also interesting.

    I've found it very different and somewhat difficult to get used to. Controls are really strange and non-intuitive. It's a great game but controls really hurt the gameplay.

    This was a much more original Pokémon game spinoff to the other ones. The fact all the Pokémon are in this game and the addictive nature to keep going is amazing. Replayability only makes the game better, since traveling through dungeons will keep you occupied for at least a while.

    Another new concept to the world of pokemon has arrived! The exploration of many different dungeons in this game make it unique and classy. Item's combine with money to create many a joy, and Red Rescue Team eally is a fantasising tale. After begining to play the game, you won't want to stop until you have got a platinum bage. The use of moves is quite a dissapointment, but red rescue team has bought something new to the pokemon world.… Expand

    Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team is an awfully strange, but mildly effective game for Pokemaniacs and puzzle solvers. Pros: A variety of Pokemon to add to your team and dungeons to explore. Cons: Dull visuals; odd controls; the RPG elements aren't exactly necessary, regardless of the Pokemon series being built on that.

    Por primera vez se cumple un sueño que todos los pokéfanáticos tuvimos desde siempre: personificar y controlar directamente a un pkmn. El juego de hecho tiene un trasfondo narrativo increíble (para la saga), lleno de emotividad a cada paso.
    Los mundos y los pokémon en si poseen gráficos muy agradables, la BSO pega muy bien con el juego y la jugabi    lidad es excelente.… Expand

    While Nintendo DS owners may feel cheated at the poor second screen features, or may even feel violated by the graphics on their system compared to what they've come to expect, GBA owners can feel safe in the knowledge that this is one of the best looking on their system and that only one good screen, which is what the GBA possesses, is really needed to fully enjoy the gameplay.

    Anyone with an established affection for roguelikes (apparently there are a lot of you) and even the slightest liking of Pokémon will really enjoy this. And ultimately, I did too - played one mission at a time, Mystery Dungeon's old-fashionedness in the context of the adorable setting is charming, and you can't fault it for a lack of longevity.

    You won't find a better handheld RPG so fitting for bite-size moments of play, and those cute 'n' marketable pocket monsters are only the icing on the cake.
