Not the long epic DQ adventure people want, can be fun to play while it lasts, but some might not be compelled to play for a while it once it's completed.
It’s not an ideal experience on any level: it’s too long as an arcade game, and too short as an RPG, but it’s sure to find a niche--especially by trumpeting the brand it’s built upon.

Monlithsofts newest adventure "Dragon Quest swords" is a wonderful masterpiece about a young dragon quester who goes on amazing and fun adventures with his dad (he is hot btw) This game is just steller. honestly, if you havent played this masterpiece of a video game, then i think you should honestly just end yourself. It is on parr with Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Dead or Alive exteme Beach volley ball (Also by Nintendo). This game is such soooooo good, its amazing. I literally nutted TWICE. to this game. The mechanics is simple. Swing you sword baby ! That it. Swing it. Swing it rn. Ive never had a massive floaty, my pubes literally sprouted up. Its that amazing. Its just sooooooo goood. This game (by rockstar games) is a god sent, literally in 2:3 of the bible, Jesus predicted this amazing game. And we must thank our lord for this. I will marry this game, this game is the prpohet. In the game, you have a sword and its really cool and fun, and yeha. also you swing the sword and kill the demons that satin sent you. Would recommend.. My nephew is really enjoying this game, as am i.

Dragon Quest Swords is a combination of RPG and First Person Light Gun Shooter. As bizarre as that sounds it actually works to some degree. The RPG aspect is pretty simple. You buy your weapons and armor, you level up by beating monsters, buy potions, etc. The light gun shooter aspect of the game is you select where you aim your sword and slash away at the evil doods. Sadly putting the two together means they both must suffer. The RPG aspect feels extremely light and the story feels clichÃ
, there's only a handful of levels to go to and there's no real power ups you expect from a light gun shooter. But the game does manage to make do with what it has and if you can get pass the awkward control scheme at the beginning (D pad to move in a 3D space?!) then you should be fine. If you want a light RPG that will keep you moving, try this one. It should be in the bargain bins everywhere by now..

The Dragon Quest atmosphere of Dragon Quest Swords only goes so far before you start itching for some gameplay variety (although the visuals never get old).
Perhaps the most casual Dragon Quest game to date, TMQATTOM is a case of too little, too late, and is difficult to recommend to anyone but a casual or perhaps younger gamer.
With nice presentation values and a generally easy challenge, it isn’t hard to overlook the game's flaws. However the poor design choices and questionable accuracy on the IR aiming really keep this game from coming close to legacy of the main series.
You're given the story setup, the potential of the control system, and a sharp visual style....but it comes with training wheels. [Spring 2008, p.50]
The series had some good games but this latest addition doesn't convince us. The storyline and fighting are simply poor. The movements just aren't right. The developers probably had good idea, we just don't see them in-game.
Dragon Quest Swords certainly isn’t a horrible game like some fans may claim it to be, but it certainly isn’t a prize winner either. With a decent story, a unique take on a franchise, and somewhat decent controls, Dragon Quest Swords is a game that can captive any fans interest, as long as they are interested.
