Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time

Chunsoft includes a touch of innovation by including a Wi-Fi supported SOS email system. This allows you to send out a "help" email to fellow players in case you're in need of a little back-up support. However, that's all you can do. There's no direct online connecting play to battle against other Pokemon, nor any leader boards.

"Explorers of Time doesn’t provide the intense challenge or genuine sense of accomplishment that some of the other Mystery Dungeon titles are known for, and adult players might find the whole thing a little cutesy. Still, it’s the perfect way to introduce the next generation of roguelike fans to this obscure, hardcore, but very entertaining genre — as well as a perfectly serviceable, if a little underwhelming, addition to the DS’s growing RPG library."

"Combining classic Mystery Dungeon mechanics and elements from Diamond and Pearl, Explorers of Time / Darkness is shaping up to be a very unique Pokemon experience, particularly with its support of Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and appearances from rare Pokemon from the entire series."

"The team created two versions of the same game, and more doesn't necessarily mean better. This sequel isn't much of a step up from the first game in the series, which wasn't all that great to begin with."
