However, regardless of gender, the winner takes the control of the kingdom. The winner gets to marry the king's daughter if the player is male the king makes an offer himself if the player is female, but will be rejected. The game is won by the player with the most money at the end. Three starting jobs are available to the new adventurer (warrior, thief, and magician), and following a pattern of leveling, eleven character jobs and darkling (if someone hears the whisper of the dark revenge, usually the current last place player) are possible. Multiple magics and stat changes play out both in battle and on the game board, while class-specific skills increase with player's job level. The battle system plays out in roshambo style, with the attack option beating counter, the counter option beating strike, and the defend option resisting the attack option. Landing on an 'empty' yellow space or another player will typically cause a battle, but sometimes the player will encounter a strange traveler that may allow them to play them at a minigame, or hire their services to steal or harm the other players. Players will have the freedom to choose the direction they want to go. Players spin a spinner and then move to any spot on the board that is reachable by moving that number of spaces.

The game is a hybrid board game and role-playing video game with modes varying from story mode to battle royale in which four players are assigned a mission. The Wii version was published in North America by Atlus on October 14, 2008, and in Europe by BigBen Interactive on March 26, 2010. It was ported to the Wii by Sting Entertainment on July 31, 2008, as Dokapon Kingdom for Wii. The PlayStation 2 version was later re-released in Japan on November 20, 2008. It is a remake of the 1994 Super Famicom title, Dokapon 3・2・1 – Arashi o Yobu Yuujou. It was published by Atlus in North America on October 14, 2008. If you’re into RPGs, boardgames, or fantastic 4 player console games, you have to pick this thing up.Dokapon Kingdom is a role-playing video game developed by Sting and published by Examu in Japan for PlayStation 2 on November 22, 2007. The game reminds me of a much deeper version of the Runebound boardgame. There are also dungeons you can go into and explore, which have some pretty sweet loot in them. You can choose to steal one of their items, or more amusingly, you can give them a dumb looking haircut… or put a tattoo on their face… even change their name. The winner can then do some pretty hilarious things to the loser. If you land on the same spot as another player, you duel them. You can cast overland magic spells that you find/buy on them, such as fireballs to reduce their health, muckyfoot to make it so they can only move one space for a certain timeframe, poison, fear, etc. There is a lot of interaction with other players. If you invest enough money into towns, they eventually start producing items. You can then invest money into the town, raising it’s town level and income generation. You defeat this monster, and the town is yours. All the towns are initially guarded by a monster. The main way to get the big bucks is to take over towns on the map, which are another type of space you can land on. The goal of the basic game is to have the most money after a specified number of weeks. Other spaces include loot spaces, which give you a random item… magic spaces, which give you a random magic spell and various other similar loot-givers. Sometimes, however, special random events occur when landing on these spaces. The most common space is a yellow one, which usually results in a fight with a random monster. The gameboard/world is a huge area covered by a mazelike grid of spaces. All the players start at the center of the kingdom, and take turns spinning a spinner and moving the amount specified. You create a character, and choose one of three initial classes (warrior, mage or thief).

We finally stopped playing at around midnight. Yesterday afternoon, I had three friends over and we started playing it around 1pm. A few days ago I picked up Dokapon Kingdom for the Wii after hearing it was a mixture of Mario Party and an RPG that four people could play at the same time.
