Digimon World: Dawn
Series fans'll eat it up , but others may want to contemplate whether learning the Digiropes is something they're really willing to invest in.

It feels more like an expansion pack or parallel game than a true sequel. There are a ton of Digimon to collect, it's just unfortunate that players are forced to progress through a fetch-quest storyline.
If you're looking for monster RPG different than Pokemon this is your game. Just don't expect it to be as good as Pokemon, despite the cooler looking evolved monsters.

I love this game! Of course it is not perfect, but its strongest points are 1) TONS of different digimon 2) Cool digievolution system and branches 3) Beautiful sprites and art style 4) Super fun and engaging battle system that has enough strategy going on to feel your decissions really matter and the differencies btw digimons are real and 5) Quest menu so you dont get too lost. I also loved the Farm system. In my view, the flaws are its average story and lack of interesting NPCs and items in the scenarios/dungeons so you feel less alone. Nonetheless, it is such a great game! I have spent lots of hours in Dusk and Dawn, playing these games is a really pleasant experience for any digimon or Dungeon RPG fan out there! 100% recommended, an absolute must for Nintendo DS.

More Tamagotchi battling that's superior to World Championship if only because you actually get to direct the fights in this one.

why is every sidequest in this game "find the random npc in this huge maze-like dungeon with cryptic or outright misleading clues"? i'd ignore them if not for the fact you really need the extra exp for the main quests. the game feels like a slow slog to play, for that alone. and if that wasnt bad enough, the boss fights are total HP-sponges who dont even put up a fight. you'll get like one fun challenging boss battle for every several nothing-fights. i... kinda hate this. please play literally any other digimon game, just stay away from dawn/dusk. its a shame too, cuz the starter digimon is awesome and should be in more games. and the fact that some ultimate digimon simply cannot evolve to mega is an insult.

An awesome game. There was very little that I found wrong with this game.

Give this one a chance, especially if you're into this unique brand of games. If you were surprised by the quality of the new Pokémon games, or if you're a long-time Digimon fan, this might be a game worth playing.

digimon world dawn, es un excelente rpg y sobre todo uno de los mejores juegos de la saga, para los amantes de digimon es perfecto, historia y musica atrapante, una cantidad de digimon impresionante, fuciones y lo mejor modo multijador online y local de lo mejor en ds, bastante innovador el modo farm para entrenar los digimon, y la criansa de huevos, le dan un toque nuevo a los rpg, su dificultad es bastante alta, para lograr vencer a la gaia y obtener el tamer legendario, dedica mucho tiempo como buen rpg, digimon dawn cumple para los fans de la saga y como rpg no te arrepentiras esperemos que bandai namco localize mas juegos de digimon que son excelentes..

The online trading will allow you access to Digimon in both the Dusk and Dawn version. If you're a fan, expect a lot of game.

Digimon fans will find the multiplayer worthwhile, but the dull story mode is basically just a rehashing of the previous Digimon World.

PT- BR: Digimon Dawn/ Dusk são dois jogos muito bem feitos. Eu amei a variedade de digimons, e a trama é bem fechada. É possível obter quase todos os digimons lançados na época, o que por si só é incrível. A única parte que acho negativa nisso tudo é algumas linhas evolutivas, pois algumas simplesmente não fazem sentido. Sem contar o multiplayer, eu sei que o jogo foi feito para que você pudesse lutar com seus amigos, mas depois que o sistema do DS foi desabilitado, isso se tornou inviável. Apesar disso, continua sendo um ótimo jogo. EN: Digimon Dawn/ Dusk are two very well done games. I loved the variety of digimons, and the plot is tight. It is possible to obtain almost all digimon released at the time, which in itself is amazing. The only negative part of this is some evolutionary lines, as some just don't make sense. Not counting multiplayer, I know the game was made so you could fight with your friends, but after the DS system was disabled, that became unfeasible. Despite that, it's still a great game.
