Best Nintendo 3DS Games – #27 Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan

Developer: Atlus

Release Date: February 26, 2013

Synopsis: Challenging dungeon crawls are the name of the game for the Etrian Odyssey series, and Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan, brought those loved adventures to the Nintendo 3DS in an incredible way. This time, the Guild sponsors a group of explorers to venture to the roots of the Yggdrasil tree and see what treasure and mysteries lie there. Most notable in IV, alongside the improved graphics and more party options, is a new Casual Mode to entice series newcomers to try the game.

Why it’s one of the best Nintendo 3DS games: Admittedly, if you easily get overwhelmed by the complexities of RPGs, Etrian Odyssey in any form isn’t for you. But for those willing to take on a fresh challenge or who just love the series, Etrian Odyssey IV is perhaps the culmination of what’s great about the games. Rich dungeons, beautiful environments and music, plenty of party possibilities, and an inviting casual mode for those who keep scratching their heads over tricky encounters make Etrian Odyssey IV a must-play on 3DS for anyone interested in the genre.
