Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates To Infinity is the latest release in the “Mystery Dungeon” series, a spin-off of the ever-so-popular core Pokemon series. Though the main series has been going strong for nearly 20 years (!!!) in Japan, the Mystery Dungeon games have quietly become a mainstay of their own – Gates to Infinity is the ninth such title in eight years (though only six have made it to the states). I had never played a Mystery Dungeon title until GTI, but having grown up in the hey-day of Poke-mania has made me a huge fan of the franchise and has given its main series the distinction of being the only RPG I ever regularly play for fun. So how did GTI play to a man who tends to avoid such things (even if they’re painted in a Pokemon coat?) Surprisingly…well.

Zero Escape (ZE) is easily one of the best games I've played since, well, its prequel 999.

Will this game send you soaring or drop you flat on your face?
