Critic Reviews for Dragon Quest Treasures
Dragon Quest Treasures boasts an open-world that's a pleasure to explore, but falters with poor combat.
Dragon Quest Treasures is far from the richest jewel in the Dragon Quest crown, but a laid-back structure, charming world, and endless stream of rewards make it a relaxing RPG still worth admiring.
While Treasures has high points, the low points outweigh them and leave the game a middling experience.
Charming and relaxing is not how you'd describe the average action role-player but this wholesome Dragon Quest spin-off is an enjoyably undemanding, family friendly adventure.
It’s this buildup of minor annoyances that makes it hard to recommend Dragon Quest Treasures. The experience is driven by charm and nostalgia, but if you don’t have an existing appreciation for the series, there isn’t much here that I could recommend over most other open-world role-playing games. It’s an experience that would greatly vary depending on the player; in other words, one player’s Dragon Quest trash is another player’s Dragon Quest Treasure.
Despite weak combat and dated visuals, the central gameplay loop of Dragon Quest Treasures is strong enough to keep you coming back.
A perfect game for those long winter nights, Dragon Quest Treasures will more than tide me over until Square Enix finally gets around to releasing Infinity Strash.
You'll have a great time playing Dragon Quest Treasures. Despite being a spin-off, recycling music from other installments and being something simple, you will feel that you are facing a title of the saga, with fresh and fun mechanics, thanks to the recruitment of monsters and the search for treasures, in addition to the wonderful translation and designs of Akira Toriyama.
