I wanted to give a try to other games in the Mystery Dungeon series, so I started playing a Shiren the Wanderer one for the very first time yesterday (Serpentcoil Island)...

...Why did nobody tell me about these before... The characters are so cute and most sound effects, menus, items and portraits are EXACTLY like the Pokémon ones???

Here's a clip from the very beginning of the game so you can hear and see the sound and visual effects 🥺

And just look at these two and try to tell me they're not the same picture. It looks so funny hghg

I know it's all made by Chunsoft, but finding the same sounds and other similarities was a huge surprise seriously omg I'm so happy,,

Koppa is absolutely a PMD partner too, I love his personality :') And Shiren (the protagonist) even gets amnesia too, woohoo!

Even though the difficulty seems a bit higher due to the whole "if you lose you have to restart at level 1 and lose every item" deal, I'm having so much fun... And there's some other differences between this game and PMD that are very cool too!!

I didn't even know about the Shiren games until recently, so if you're into PMD please give these a try too!
