If you haven't heard of Dokapon Kingdom, let us fix that. The best way to describe this Wii and PlayStation 2 title is to call it a cracked out RPG party board game. Play with up to four players on a game board, as you run around collecting items, working to beat down monsters for cash. The money-crazed king needs to collect his taxes, but monsters are in the way. Because of this, he has offered up his princess to the one who can take down the most monsters.
I'm currently playing through review copy of Dokapon Kingdom. I'm rolling solo now, but I can't wait to play it with a group of 3 more gamers over beers. I'm working today to set that up. I'm sure it would be stupidly fun with a group.
In the meantime, check out these new screenshots from this insane (and insanely addicting) party game. I'll admit that they don't do the best job of showing what goes down in Dokapon Kingdom. It's one of those games you have to get your hands on. Look forward to our review very soon.
