A fun implementation of the Monster Hunter style of action RPG, Final Fantasy Explorers offers similar gameplay in a more accessible package. While it lacks the depth of the Monster Hunter titles, it provides a mostly open world to explore with plenty of jobs, abilities, and equipment to keep things fresh. The bestiary leaves something to be desired and many of the quests can feel tedious and must be replayed for their rewards, but the cons don't detract too much from the game. There's enough here to play solo and have a good time, especially once you unlock the Monster Lab and can create and cultivate a party of monsters, but it's definitely at its most fun when played with friends. This game is probably best appreciated by long-time fans of the Final Fantasy games or by fans of the MMO genre, as there are some grinding similarities, but provides enough to be enjoyable to anyone interested in questing and hunting.
