Post Description

Mystery Dungeon and "roguelike" games make up a niche genre that spans the difficulty range from the unforgiving Shiren the Wanderer to the more breezy Pokemon Mystery Dungeon titles. It's a well-worn game design, sending players into random dungeons for turn-based exploration and combat. On the surface, Chocobo's Dungeon appears to be another watered-down entry with its kid-friendly presentation and seemingly simplistic gameplay. But spend a little time with it and layers of depth slowly reveal themselves. This is one of the most engaging, challenging experiences on the Wii, proving that a kiddie presentation doesn't have to mean shallow gameplay. 

Players step into the talons of a young Chocobo, the ostrich-like mounts of the Final Fantasy universe. It's been a while since the yellow bird had a starring role on a console -- the last Chocobo's Dungeon game was released for the original PlayStation back in 1999. Even though this game feels pretty "retro" in both design and some of its presentation, it's a testament to the strength of the Mystery Dungeon concept that it remains a lot of fun today.
