  • Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King for Nintendo 3DS is an upgraded rerelease of a classic PlayStation 2 role-playing game. It tells the story of a group of heroes on a quest to undo a curse laid upon the land -- apparently by a former court jester known as Dhoulmagus -- that has transformed the king into a monster and his daughter into a horse.
  • Players take on the role of a hero (with a customizable name) who has pledged to hunt down the source of the curse and lift it from the realm. Along the way they cross paths with a bandit, a knight, and a mage, all of whom take up the quest with them for their own reasons. It's set in a sprawling and colourful open world filled with trees, streams, mountains, and settlements.
  • Players can freely explore this world, accepting a range of side quests from nonplayer characters. Monsters also roam the land, and running into one will initiate a turn-based battle -- enemies on one side, heroes on the other -- where players select attacks, abilities, items, and support moves.
