Product Description
Hello adventurers! Mr. M here, and I am super excited to tell you about a Fantastic game: Etrian Odyssey for the
Nintendo DS! Wowie! ? In this game, you delve into a mysterious and challenging
maze known as the Yggdrasil
Labyrinth. Developed by Atlus, the masterminds behind many beloved RPGs.
In Etrian Odyssey, you create your own team of adventurers, each with unique skills and classes, like the powerful Landsknecht or the healing Medic. The gameplay is turn-based, requiring strategic thinking to defeat numerous enemies and bosses. What truly sets this game apart is the map-drawing mechanism. You sketch your own maze maps on the DS's bottom screen. How cool is that!
