Originally scheduled as a launch title for the Wii in Japan, Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors is the first installment of the Dragon Quest series heading for the Wii in Spring 2007. Dragon Quest is a popular JRPG series in which the player takes the role of a party of heroes who fight monsters using medieval weapons, magic, and other items. The player's characters gain experience points that improve their abilities by defeating opponents. Dragon Quest has been Square Enix's second most popular series.
The Wii installment of the series is a bit different from standard Dragon Quest games (IGN likens it to Kenshin Dragon Quest). You can use the Wii-mote as your sword but the game does not utilize the nunchuck. Instead, your character moves on a set path, allowing you only to go forward or backward. The focus of the game is really on the battle mode, allowing you to take on the role of the hero and beat the enemies in hand-to-hand combat.
