Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness

"No matter what we say, Pokemon fans will surely take delight in both Explorers of Darkness and Explorers of Time. However, it just feels like the same go-around we went through with the previous Mystery Dungeon games, rather than something groundbreaking."

"Explorers of Darkness doesn't provide the intense challenge or genuine sense of accomplishment that some of the other Mystery Dungeon titles are known for, and adult players might find the whole thing a little cutesy. Still, it's the perfect way to introduce the next generation of roguelike fans to this obscure, hardcore, but very entertaining genre - as well as a perfectly serviceable, if a little underwhelming, addition to the DS's growing RPG library."

"Combining classic Mystery Dungeon mechanics and elements from Diamond and Pearl, Explorers of Time / Darkness is shaping up to be a very unique Pokemon experience."
