Dai’s video game debut may not feature the same level of robustness as its core series counterparts, but, as an action-based anime spin-off, it’s an absolute delight. Whether you’ve been following the anime or manga, or just consider yourself to be a Dragon Quest fan, Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure offers an all-around good time.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest – The Adventure of Dai is a title that, despite its potential, falls short in several key ways. From a technical standpoint, it offers an engaging visual experience that captures the essence of its anime counterpart. Sound effects and music complement the ambience well, but are marred by technical issues, such as noticeable slowdowns in action sequences.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai is a good game adapting an anime, but a relatively shallow Action RPG. While there's plenty of content here (especially if you're a fan of the franchise), the game just recreates the narrative of the animation, the combat is simple, and its most unique mode ends up tiring by repetitiveness.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai is a pretty simple and straightforward action RPG. A lack of new ideas and a more deep gameplay, makes it a hard game to recommend.

Infinity Strash plays with its own legacy a bit, mostly by using models from Dragon Quest proper instead of imitating the manga’s art style. But the rest of the game, while fun in that lizard brain kind of way, doesn’t do a ton to separate itself from its peers. Fans of the series will have a decent time, but there’s not much here for folks on the outside. If you’re curious about Dragon Quest as a whole, we recommend starting elsewhere.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai is a great introduction to the Dragon Quest anime, but will be too story heavy for some.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest - The Adventure of Dai is a cute game, but it's the definition of a generic anime tie-in title. It has its charms, and it doesn't play badly, but it is a very basic title that primarily exists for fans of the show. If you're a die-hard Dragon Quest fan rather than an Adventures of Dai fan, it might be better to watch the show and return to the game if you want more. Fans should have a lot of fun getting to experience the adventures of their favorites in a new form.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Da" is a wonderful entry point for newcomers to the legendary games series, which very skilfully captures the flair of its anime original time and again. However, old-fashioned game and level design keep the action RPG from unfolding its full potential.

Infinity Strash: DRAGON QUEST The Adventure of Dai is a light action RPG that, despite having Dragon Quest in the title, focuses on the anime and manga of the same name and has nothing to do with the main game series or its spin-offs. -more well-known offs -beyond the common elements of the franchise such as its bestiary-. An adventure awaits us where we will follow approximately a third of the anime with certain pacing problems due to its strange structure of telling the story and we may also be affected by its too simple combat that only shines before the bosses. Despite all this, and perhaps because of the weight of nostalgia, Infinity Strash is a game that we are going to recommend, especially for manga and anime fans.

If you've ever dreamed of a Fly Adventures video game, Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai probably satisfies that desire... But don't go around expecting something with the same level of quality and magic of a real Dragon Quest.

Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai contains some simple positives, especially when it comes to delivering a dramatic and fun anime series storyline. Sadly, the gameplay does not complement that storytelling and falls short in content size and portions. Even the inclusion of RPG elements, such as Bond Memories, can’t seem to lift the action and prop it up to a higher Dragon Quest level that most of us are used to seeing.

Unfortunately, for the good that Infinity Strash does for the serialised manga, it shorts itself through poor retellings of the anime episodes, simple but ultimately boring combat, and a Temple system that really doesn’t mesh well with the main campaign. But if you’re a shounen or Dragon Quest diehard, Dai’s adventures are a fun spectacle—but I think I’d rather watch the anime.

The game offers simple hack 'n' slash action and a story mode that follows the manga's plot. However, the gameplay experience often becomes dull due to poorly designed boss battles and design limitations. The Temple of Recollection mode adds an interesting variation but doesn't significantly impact character strength. Despite attractive graphics and the inclusion of the entire story, the game lacks refinement and feels like a disappointing tie-in for a brand like Dragon Quest.

Infinity Strash: DRAGON QUEST: The Adventures of Dia is a great adaptation of The Adventures of Dia anime, but it's a disappointment when it comes to being a spin-off in the Dragon Quest franchise. Simple combat and a bad mission structure will have you watching screengrabs from the anime more than playing the game. It tires hard to be an epic adventure, but it feels like it was designed for the mobile market before being moved to a console release.

Infinity Strash - Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai is by no means the tie-in that fans of the license have always wanted, but neither is it a total disaster.

Infinity Strash: DRAGON QUEST The Adventure of Dai is a missed opportunity for fans of Dai (known as The Adventures of Fly in the West) who were hoping for a good game to revive the franchise. Despite the dedication to telling the story, the game is mediocre and fails to encompass everything seen in the anime remake. In short, it joins the list of anime-based games that fail to live up to their expectations and squander their potential.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai could appeal to diehard fans of the anime, but its repetitive nature keeps it from being great. The game looks remarkably like the anime and the Temple of Recollection can be quite fun, but anyone who doesn’t love The Adventure of Dai can pass on this one.

If Infinity Strash had leaned more heavily into the action combat, it would have been an excellent spin-off from the Dragon Quest series and could've been an enjoyable game in its own right. All the right pieces are here - there's just not enough of them. Unfortunately, that means Infinity Strash: DRAGON QUEST The Adventure of Dai isn't so much an action RPG as an anime rewatch.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai offers frenetic and surprisingly action RPG gameplay that is weighed down by mobile-style progression and a pointless story format.
