CWs for Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime: fatphobia

An extremely cute and very slight 2D Zelda-like where you slingshot around as the DQ Slime and get into manual Tower Defense-offs with other DQ monsters. The sense of character is joyous in the expected cutesy ways that doesn't ever get old, but the tank fights have an RPG-y resource grind tacked onto them that doesn't ever really expand how the encounters work. The grind is avoidable, but it makes the late tank fights really drag on because of how numbers scale. Can't complain too much because of how forgiving and brief the whole thing is, but it's also def not like some hidden masterpiece of the franchise.
