Destroy friendships with Dokapon Kingdom

Anyone who has played the Gamecube or Wii versions of Mario Party know the potential for such a game to destroy friendships. So Atlus is using that fact as a selling point for it’s October 14, 2008 Wii and PS2 release, Dokapon Kingdom. Like Mario Party, Dokapon Kingdom is a party/board game, but at the same time it is a multiplayer RPG. It also features quite a few gameplay aspects that will make your best friends your fiercest rivals.

In Dokapon Kingdom, four players were asked by the king to save Dokapon and his daughter, Princess Penny. The winner gets to be the hero, and the losers only receive shame. So players set off to battle monsters, find items, level up their characters, attack their former friends, steal from other players and slander their opponents’ good names.

This is extremely good news, as a DS version of Dokapon is scheduled to be released in Japan soon. If Dokapon Kingdom sells, then Atlus will likely translate and localize Dokapon Journey! Nakayoku Kenka Shite as well. Mario Party DS let me down, and it looks like the rumors of a North American Itadaki Street DS were false, so the DS needs a good multiplayer board game.
