Izuna: Legend of the unemployed ninja. (DS)

Hey guys today I bring you a game from my one of my favorite groups, Atlus. Izuna is a classic dungeon crawl with a ninja spin on it. Let's get started.

Gameplay: They game handles pretty easily just run around the town till your ready to go to whatever dungeon you need to. Then in the dungeon run around more whomping monsters and finding treasure. Dugeons are made up of randomly generated floors with monsters of different type and level. On the last floor of each dungeon you'll find a boss which can usually be quite nasty if you are unprepared. Luckily you have a a nice selection of weapons and items from sword and claws to ninja arts and shurikens. 4/5

Story: The mai nstory is that after the wars are settled and a time of peace occurs ninjas have nothing to do. So they move to this little village where our hero Izuna gets everyone into trouble by stealing a sacred stone belonging to the gods of the village. She must then go out and find the gods and get them to reverse their curses. Each god will give you an orb that will uncurse all the people they cursed if you show it to them. 4/5

Graphics: Graphically the game is cute though at times looks a little squished. But the characters a bright and the landscape is mostly well designed. Though it doesn't really draw you in like it could. 3/5

Audio: The music if very typical of these games if you've ever played a game involving a small japanese village then you know this music. I could be better a lot better honestly. 2/5

Replay: After you beat the game there's not a lot left to it. I can't say I'd have a strong desire to play the game twice and I don't think you will either: 2/5

Overall: Okay the game's story is pretty engaging and the characters are humorous and lovable. The gameplay if simple and fun and even though you'll often get maimed in the dungeon by a horde of monsters its not really that disheartening. The game lacks where it seems most games today focus all their time. The musical and graphical aspects. So if you want a game that's engaging because its pretty and shiney this is not the game for you. If you want a game that is fun at the gameplay core and not to time consuming this is the game for you. 3/5
