Story
This is the tale of Psaro, a young man cursed, and the adventure upon which he and his trusted friends embark.
When the curse put upon him by his father, the Master of Monsterkind, renders him incapable of harming any creature of monster blood, Psaro vows to become a monster wrangler in order to break the spell. On his journey, he will befriend many monsters, train them to be stronger, synthesize powerful new allies and take on ever more dangerous foes.
Join Psaro and his friends on their campaign for monster-wrangling glory!
(The network mode Online Battles from the console version, where players battle one another in real time, is not included.)
Game Features
- Explore Nadiria, the Magical Monster Realm
On his quest for greatness, Psaro will traverse the multifarious Circles of Nadiria. Whether it be made entirely of cake and sweets or fraught with rivers of bubbling lava, each Circle plays host to a wealth of bewitching adventures. As time passes in Nadiria, so too do the seasons change, with different weather conditions tempting new monsters out of hiding and revealing paths to undiscovered areas. The Circles of Nadiria are sure to provide a fresh experience every time you visit.
- Over 500 Unique Monsters
With such varied environments to explore, you can expect them to be inhabited by a plethora of monsters. While many can be recruited in battle, occasionally a defeated monster will ask to join your team of its own accord. Befriend as many monsters as you can, then combine them to synthesize new creatures and build a unique party to your exact liking.
- Enjoy All the DLC from the Console Version
The smartphone version includes the DLC packs from the console version: the Mole Hole, Coach Joe's Dungeon Gym and Treasure Trunks. Make the most of their unique features to enhance your adventure.
- Test Your Might Against Other Players
Register your team for the network mode Quickfire Contests to participate in automated battles against the party data of 30 other players. Once a day you can earn stat-boosting items as a prize, and the monsters from any team you defeat will be added to your roster (up to rank B monsters only).

Editors’ Notes
Recruit monsters and combine them into powerful new forms in this multifaceted turn-based RPG set in the beloved Dragon Quest universe.
Great game! Port has some flaws
This game is amazing, truly a remarkable Dragon Quest game. However, there are issues with this iOS port. Frame rate stutters in certain areas and battles, I’m on an iPhone 13 Pro Max so it might be better on newer iPhones. Also, the text font is too small sometimes. There’s no way to adjust the font, so it makes it difficult to read context. Some people might not like the lack of controller support. I’m used to touch controls, so it didn’t bother me. This option missing from the game does limit the accessibility. These three points were my main concerns for anyone purchasing this game. If that’s not enough to push you away from this game, then you’ll find yourself enjoying a great game with plenty of strategic depth. Anyone who likes Dragon Quest or JRPG’s will enjoy it. 9/10!
There’s a game breaking bug!!!!
I’m about 4 hours into the game at the time of me writing this review and I’ve been having fun with this game. I like the Pokémon style mechanics and the story is pretty interesting so far however there is a game breaking bug. I am playing on the iPhone 14 and I’ve checked Reddit so I know it’s not just me having this issue but players cannot change the monsters from their party and reserves or from there box that holds all the monsters. The drag and drop feature isn’t working and when you go to press and hold on a monster when in the paddox it just gives you the option to remove the monster from your party there is no way to add to your party which is very annoying. So far I’ve been playing the game with the same 4 monsters I captured in my first like 20minutes of gameplay which isn’t a problem now but I want a new team and to try new monsters. Please Square Enix can you fix this issue it’s been 2 weeks since the last patch and we really want to enjoy this game but can’t. Other than that issue the game so far has been amazing. But after paying like $20 for it and missing a major feature like this I feel like I’m being ripped off or just got scammed.
