Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time
See the world through the eyes of a Pokémon and step into an adventure full of mystery in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time for Nintendo DS.
When you wake up in a strange land to find you’ve turned into a Pokémon, there are bound to be a few questions on your mind – questions that can only be answered by setting off on an epic journey of discovery. Along the way, you’ll embark on missions to retrieve lost items, hunt for outlaws and get caught up in the search for a precious artefact stolen by a time-travelling Pokémon!
Of course, for a quest so challenging you’ll have to recruit some help. Building an Exploration Team of trusty Pokémon to travel by your side through dangerous dungeons will be vital to your survival. And don’t forget to get your team in training before you embark on a new mission – teaching them the skills they’ll need to secure victory in the many Pokémon battles ahead!
With danger lurking at every turn, you might need a little more assistance than your sidekicks can provide. Thankfully, the Friend Rescue function in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time lets you send SOS messages via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection to one of your friends who has either Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time or Explorers of Darkness. So if you faint in a dungeon, just send a cry for help wirelessly to your buddy and sit tight!
As you wait to be saved, you’ll be able to stay busy by going on a Standby Adventure and returning to previously visited dungeons. And if you’re the one rescuing a friend, you’ll have 10 attempts to save that friend – and a reward to look forward to if you succeed!
Prepare for a mysterious new Pokémon adventure where only you and your Exploration Team can prevent time from stopping and save the world from darkness!
- Determine which Pokémon you are by taking a personality test and assemble an Exploration Team to lead through huge randomly generated dungeons.
- Use the Friend Rescue function to call on your friends for help or trade items via local wireless connection.
- Build up the strengths of your Exploration Team as you win battles against rival Pokémon and attempt to save the world.

Adorable Pokemon dungeon crawling, local and Wi-Fi rescue system... 
Top screen feels extraneous, might be too watered down for the hardcore Roguelike set The Final Word Poke-fun, though not the most challenging Roguelike game.
