Jade Cocoon: Story of the Tamamayu

"I won't claim that Jade Cocoon is the ultimate RPG… it's not. The game is rather easy, especially for a seasoned vet, but should provide a good starting point for people new to the genre."

"I truly recommend this game to anyone out there looking for something new in the RPG genre; just don't expect this to be Final Fantasy 8. The story mode may be weak, but the "cocoon" feature is innovative, and the battle-engine and graphics are incredible."

"...if you don't mind a lot of monotonous combat, and find monster capture and fighting appealing, then Jade Cocoon will prove a solid, entertaining RPG. After you finish the main game, it even allows you to keep hunting for new monsters to capture."

"...it’s an entertaining and somewhat engrossing game and players looking for a good hybrid of role-playing and monster-breeding should find Jade Cocoon to be an enjoyable gaming experience."

"If you’re an RPG fanatic, or that of the Pokemon kind, you’ll love Jade Cocoon. But if you like more fighting, and the act of battle in an RPG, don’t count on it too much in Jade Cocoon."
