  • Summary: There was a time when mankind and monsters coexisted in peace, but The Great Disaster put an end to that era. The world changed radically, with all the planet’s monsters disappearing in an instant, leaving behind only jewels that radiated tremendous energy. This energy source became known asas jewel power and enabled the survivors to revive their civilization. Now, the peace achieved through jewel power has been endangered by a new threat. Strange Abominations have mysteriously appeared and unleashed legions of monsters on the helpless populace. To combat them, an organization known as the Order was established to study jewels and harness their power. Their research led to the formation of an elite class of warriors called Jewel Summoners, those with the power to summon monsters from jewels and control them in combat. With the aid of the Order, it is up to these powerful Jewel Summoners to restore peace once again. Use the power of amalgamy to evolve your monsters and create a creature with unrivaled power. Collect, trade, and battle monsters with your friends for ultimate bragging rights. [Atlus Software]… Expand

    The title may be a little too story heavy for some (the gameplay/story ratio is about 30/70), but otherwise the game is just what the PSP needed and hopefully a sign of what’s to come in terms of the system’s rpg future. For anyone looking for a great portable rpg, Monster Kingdom is where it’s at. [JPN Import]

    A must buy for PSP owners hungry for an original RPG. Original design, no load times, Okada, and Atlus should be enough to make any RPG nut giddy with joy.

    Monster Kingdom does not stray too far from the Japanese RPG format, and that makes for a game that, while enjoyable, also has a familiar feel to it.

    I'm not exaggerating when I say that Jewel Summoner is at least half dialogue, if not three-quarters - a fatal mistake when the quality of such is so unappealing.

    This game is like a friendly version of old school shin megami tensei (cozy okada was a main dev in this one, he was one of the most influential devs of the smt games), to be honest, it's more smt than persona (persona is not actually smt in japan, its a different series), basically it's a mix of SMT, Pokemon and some other rpgs, great visuals, good art, AMAZING music, this is the best part about the whole game, if you played any mainline smt game you know the type of music I'm talking about, simply amazing.… Expand
