So, normally tie-in mobile games fall flat as puzzlers, RPGs, and the like. However, this game ties all that is good about the Moblie RPG, and is wrapped up in the amazing Dragon Ball theme!
First, if you can name a character or version of that character, its in the game. You can get them through Summons, which have fair and engaging RNG, or as stage rewards. I was ecstatic when I knew I could get Xenoverse Trunks, and its exciting getting all these fun useful characters. The Team balance matters, with a Pokémon-esque type system and character stats for all builds. Cant beat Freeza? Try using a different team, and you might dominate him!
The map system is pretty good, and is fun to navigate the stages. I enjoy the bonuses and hazards found in each, and its satisfying getting that rare Training item. The battles are great, mixing puzzle & strategy so well! Its great seeing your character collect so much Ki, and then the next gets a Super Attack because the Ki layout shifts! Again, teams matter, and you need to plan for each battle.
The only gripes I have are the lack of solid tutorials, better sorting for characters and Awakening, and that the app can be slow. Still, this is a must-have for the Dragon Ball fan or Mobile Gamer!
(p.s. If there were one character that desperately needs to cameo more in the game and DBZ content, it would be Crono of Toriyamas Chrono Trigger. Love how Arale cameos though!)
