Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2

In this game, players are constantly battling enemies and competitors. However, much of it is in the context of trying to become the best "Monster Scout" in the world; battling other monsters is treated as a competitive sport and not as a means of gratuitous violence. In addition, part of the story involves players being stranded on an island and working selflessly to rescue everyone else before returning to safety.

Anyone who has experience with role-playing games will have no difficulty understanding the menu-based battle system in this game. Even novice players will easily be able to pick up on the gameplay control. Players simply select what attack or defensive move they want to use in battle by selecting it in a menu screen. It's all about strategy and knowing when to use which moves, making the experience somewhat like a sophisticated version of rock, paper, scissors. In addition, this game includes a lot of exploration and puzzle-solving that will require players to flex their cognitive thinking skills. The largely rudimentary puzzles will prove to be easily solvable to most players, however.

One of the attacks that can be used in battle is called "Hellish Lightning".
