A classic role-playing game by Monolith Software, supervised by Bandai Namco. The game is based on the popular manga series by Akira Toriyama. The story of Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans takes place between the famous martial arts tournament, in which Goku and Piccolo participated, and the Saiyan invasion of Earth. The plot is divided into 15 chapters, in which you have to complete over 80 varied quests.
Namco Bandai decided to use the premiere of the refreshed version of Dragon Ball Z under the title Kai and released a title presenting the fate of Son Goku and the company. Attack of the Sayians is a classic RPG that allows you to direct the fate of the famous Z team.
The plot includes the first part of the series, i.e. it focuses on events since the martial arts tournament in which Goku and Piccolo competed in the finals to attack the planet Earth by Sayian. The authors presented the story in 15 different chapters giving console users more than 80 different missions to complete at the same time. We will lead the fate of Son Goku as well as other warriors including Krilin, Yamcha and Piccolo.
The game itself contains elements typical of the genre. Performing various main and side tasks, we travel around the world, talk to characters in cities and train our group against various opponents. For each fight we receive experience points, which influence the statistics and skills of the heroes. The clashes take place in turn and consist in selecting appropriate commands. At the same time three characters can take part in the skirmish.
Namco Bandai's production boasts nice graphics and faithful devotion to the realities of the Dragon Ball universe. During the fights there is no shortage of spectacular special attacks and animations showing the process of gathering forces by the heroes. The quality of the clashes is provided by the two DS screens, where the touch screen is used to control the characters, and the upper screen to display the warriors' struggles with enemies. Exploration of the world is presented in simple 3D, but the dialogues between the heroes are already presented with hand-written graphics.
The lifespan of the title is increased by additional items to collect, the ability to collect information about all enemies encountered during the adventure, and hidden bosses to defeat.
