admittedly, I was not really much of a big fan of the original Red and Blue Rescue Team (blame the fact that I received it after I got the much higher quality Explorers of Time!) so I resisted buying this game for a year

the art style is incredible and without a doubt one of the best parts of the game after some serviceable 3D from Gates to Infinity and Super Mystery Dungeon. there's a lot of great quality of life content here and is absolutely the Mystery Dungeon game I'd recommend to new players

that being said, there seems to be no new translation, meaning the dialogue is as stiff and unnatural as it was when Red and Blue Rescue Team was released stateside back in 2006 and is particularly jarring when new content is accompanied by better dialogue. the loss of the neutral attack is pretty bad too

I'm a bit divided as to whether or not this game is worth $60. but it's still good fun at the end of the day
