This game has all the good and crafty bits from minecraft with an a amaing story. Everything dragonquest fans would love with a lot more appeasing visuals :D

Wonderful game - a mix between Zelda III, Sims and Minecraft. Easy to get started with works great just to play a little from time to time. This is my first 10: for many years. Buy!

Dragon Quest Builders is one of those bizarre games that tries to marry one genre with another. In this case, it's the RPG-like qualities of the Dragon Quest series being married to block-based, world-constructing, survival qualities of a game like Minecraft.

Performance issues; No touchscreen support

Dragon Quest Builders was a sleeper hit when it launched on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita back in 2016, blending ideas seen in open-world builder games like Minecraft with traditional quest devices seen in the mainline Dragon Quest games.

Dragon Quest Builders has to be one of my favourite building games in a few years. I reviewed the PS4 version back in 2016 and the Switch version is out in a few days time bringing the experience to a portable console.

A brilliant, feature-packed game that any self-respecting Switch player should be picking up right about now
