Dragon Quest Builders' sandbox crafting gameplay mixed with classic JRPG mechanics results in a fun gameplay experience, but the omission of multiplayer is disappointing...
Inspired combo of two gaming genres, Absorbing cycles of exploring, mining, crafting and fighting, Enjoyable and accessible building, Classic bright and breezy Dragon Quest style
Characters go unvoiced, Camera can get flummoxed, Shallow approach to combat,
Dragon Quest meets Minecraft clone might sound like an odd couple, but Square-Enix has made the two mesh together in ways that bring the best out of both. Builders works as an accessible action RPG and as a more objective-driven take on the mining, crafti...

Abstract: Immediately at the game's announcement, Journalists, Critics and Bloggers began the muscle-reflex screaming of “Minecraft Clone” and “Terraria Rip-off”.But this is no indie-clone on the Steam store that has combined Minecraft with Zombies and begging for...

Abstract: It'd be easy to write off Dragon Quest Builders as a simple Minecraft clone, but that'd miss how much else it brings to the table and how much it builds on the block-building genre. Sure, it has the same basic design as Minecraft, but it's also undeniably...

Abstract: If you're familiar with my writing, then you know I never really got into the Dragon Quest series when I was younger. Looking back on it now, that was probably for the best; I had a hard time fully understanding Super Mario RPG, let alone a game where “t...
Dragon Quest Builders is certainly overpriced, but I can't help but love its fluent mechanics, charming characters and epic quests...

Dragon Quest Builders is totally, thoroughly engaging. Its gameplay is accessible to kids while its dialogue offers enough sly references to keep Dad or Mom amused. Collecting, crafting, and building all sounds familiar, but this package encapsulates so m...
