Jade Cocoon is an all around fun RPG. It is not too difficult for a first timer, and the huge variety of monsters you can create to fight with you gives it great replay value. The story line is okay, if a bit confusing at some points, but game play is easy to figure out and it has one of the best battle music scores I've ever heard...you don't get tired of it. You only get to fight with one character at a time (the main character or one of his three minions) so it is challenging because you have to plan well so you don't lose one of your characters (you get them back at the end of the battle). You chose what monsters to combine to give your minions the traits you desire, and this can be challenging because the bosses can change elemental attribute. Since there are four elements (earth, air, fire & water) and you only have three minions, you need to make wise decisions as to what characteristice you give them. The final boss changes between elements, so the battle can be long. You also get plenty of second chances. The only annoying thing is mastering the movement of your main character. Try making him run backward! *wink* I bought the game because I had played it when it first came out, and remembered it was not too challenging and not too easy...a good, clean, fun game.Read full review
This is an awsome game in the monster catching and collecting genre with a darker atomosphere than Pokemon or Digimon. Its a classic and somewhat hidden gem JRPG that has a super unique monster merging or combining mechanic that you can mix and match differnt monsters and their abilities to create all new ones. Its got a crazy amount of monster combination possibilities and is alot of fun to see what new creation you can add to your team.

This is an amazing game but to be honest the walking controls are very odd as you use the X button to walk forward. It has a great story line and I loved this game as a kid!

This game was basically Ni No Kuni before it was a thing. A lot of the menu's character sprites and some of the cutscenes are done in a very Ghibli style. Then you run through a mystical forest and collect monsters you can fuse together into super beasts and then fight the bad ones to save your wife or something. Whatever, who cares, play it.

Great game and a Hidden Gem, truly! A little slow to start, but great fun all the way through. Catch monsters, beat up monsters, save the world!
