Synopsis
Following their defeat of Nene, a tyrannical remnant of the Ancients, Shu and his friends hoped the battle was over. After one year passes, the world consists of a heap of “cubes” that exploded from the planet’s depths when it split open in the course of the battle with Nene. And when King Jibral spies a weird phenomenon emerging from a mysterious, distant cube — the enormous and sinister Shadow of a Balaur, a three-headed dragon — it proves to be a harbinger of further turmoil to come.

Not owning a X-Box 360 has excluded me from enjoying the highly-acclaimed Blue Dragon. But, when I heard about Blue Dragon Plus, I figured I’d go ahead an pick it up since the original’s supposed to be such a splendid, innovative game. Blue Dragon Plus has to be excellent, right? Right?!
Incorrect! Sadly, after purchasing the game and playing it for a brief amount of time, I learned Blue Dragon Plus could in no way measure to the original, regardless of never having played it. Instead of being innovative, Blue Dragon Plus attempts to mimic well-established game stylings while delivering real-time battle sequences…and fails. For battle to flow effectively, using the stylus is a must, but instead of being given well-programmed play controls, players are given a horrible “click and drag” navigation method. This headache is only compounded when attempting to command his/her troops in order to command a strategic battle. What should be fun and entertaining is tedious and obnoxious, and in a game packed with battle after battle, interest in the game is swiftly lost.
On the flip side, Blue Dragon Plus does sport some decent graphics for a game designed for the small screen, and the movie sequences look better than many seen on grown-up console systems like the PSOne. The tale, too, is honestly intriguing, at least for one unfamiliar with the by and large plot of the Blue Dragon series. But, this does small to gloss over the poor structure and gameplay. My recommendation: don’t bother buying this game. Chances are you’ll wind up regretting it.

Ten year ancient son is enjoying this, very strategic he says and not too hard or simple to learn and know.

I honestly do not know a lot of the despise that this game has been getting. While not in the same ballpark as the original 360 title (how COULD it be?) it is still a fun semi-sequel that tells a fun-filled tale and offers a traditional JRPG level of difficulty to the battles.
The battle interface may be a mixed bag, but this reviewer found it to be highly intuitive and unadorned to manipulate. Perhaps on an grown-up model DS, where the touch sensitivity was lacking, would someone encounter an issue, but with a DSi, I noticed no problems at all.
Bottom line, this game deserves better than the lashings it has taken in the press – it is unfair to compare it with a game on a much more advanced dedicated console like the XBox 360 – I reflect that the developers did a fine job of bringing the game to the small screen.
