Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you’d expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS’s dual screens. It’s also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I’m so sad there’s no sequel :(

    Jade Cocoon - Story of the Tamamayu

    My first jrpg ever on the ps1, monster tamer and merger, with magic spells and elements, various npcs and a really intriguing story and landscapes. I absolutely fell in love with this game and I am still waiting on a spiritual or direct successor like Digimon World got one.

      I remember playing the demo of it over and over again but I never saw the full game for sale anywhere so didn’t get to play properly. The monster merging thing was awesome and I remember the flutey music being awesome.

        Same! I played the Demo, and only the Demo, countles times and loved it. The Monster merging was such a cool idea.
