Item Description

Dragon Quest's humble Slime, the blue droplet that has been the first thing heroes squash since 1986, finally gets to be the hero. In Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime, a villainous gang called the Plob storms the town of Boingburg and kidnaps 100 of its 101 residents. The only one left behind is Rocket, mistaken for a worm and tossed into the forest because he'd been stretched out of shape at exactly the wrong moment. Now it's up to one small, very bouncy slime to bring everyone home.

Rocket's signature move, the elasto blast, is a charged stretch-and-spring attack that sends him flying into enemies and objects. Anything he hits can be scooped up and carried, up to three things stacked at once, and that simple hook drives everything: knocking out foes, solving light puzzles and finding the big treasure chests where captured slimes are locked away. Each rescued slime rides the railway back to Boingburg, and as the count climbs the town comes back to life.

The tank battles are where it gets brilliant. Rocket commands the Schleiman Tank against Plob war machines like the Platypanzer and Cactiballistix, and every fight becomes a frantic shuffle of hauling ammunition, built from items you've collected, into your cannons while the enemy does the same. You can even fire yourself across the gap and break into the enemy tank to wreck it from the inside, and with two copies, friends can square off in tank battles of their own. Through it all the Dragon Quest pun factory runs at full blast, with Don Clawleone, the Plobfather, and the mysterious rival Slival leading the cast.

Developed by Tose and published by Square Enix, it's the second game in Japan's Slime MoriMori series but the first to reach the West, which is why the North American title leans on the Dragon Quest name. Critics adored it, and its blend of action, puzzle-solving and tank warfare still feels unlike anything else in the Dragon Quest family. After decades of slaying slimes for experience points, here is your chance to make it up to them.

About the game

Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime is based in the fictional world of Slimenia, specifically in the capital city of Boingburg. It begins with four Slimes, Rocket, Hooly, Bo, and Swotsy, who are playing in front of the castle. Hooly has gotten his hands on a valuable flute, and in response to the flute being blown by Rocket, his father comes running over, forcing Hooly to stick the flute in Rocket's mouth. Afterward, an organization known as the Plob invades Boingburg, capturing 100 of its 101 inhabitants. Because he was distorted and long, the Plob mistakenly believed Rocket was not a Slime but a worm, and discarded him into Forewood Forest. There, Rocket begins his journey to rescue his fellow slimes, who have been locked up in large treasure chests.
