The Dark Prince is the 7th major entry in the Dragon Quest Monsters series, which is a spin-off of the original Dragon Quest franchise. If you haven’t played any of those games before, the gameplay basics are similar to Pokemon.
While there are some new gameplay elements in Dragon Quest Monsters The Dark Prince, the core concept is to battle and catch monsters. You then build a team of four monsters and fight against opponents. Success in the game depends on how well-balanced your monster team is.
Here’s a summary of the game’s plot as seen on the Square Enix website:
“Psaro is cursed and is unable to harm anything with monster blood. Now, he must become a Monster Wrangler to create an army for battle.
The hunt for high-ranked monsters takes Psaro through the ever-changing seasons of Nadiria and its unique environments, with rivers of bubbling lava, mysterious ancient ruins, and soaring towers of cake. Along the way, Psaro meets the kind-hearted elf, Rose, who joins his adventure to seek out ever-stronger monsters.”
