Dokapon is a role-playing video game franchise developed by Asmik Ace Entertainment and often published by Atlus. The Dokapon franchise is primarily composed of games with role-playing video game and board game elements.

Although having debuted in 1993, 2001 saw the first localized game in the series, Dokapon: Monster Hunter. This was followed-up by the next localization in the series, Dokapon Kingdom, first released on PlayStation 2. It was also released on Wii, which received a nomination by IGN for Best Wii RPG of 2008.[1] Since its debut in 1993, the series has sold more than one million copies.[2]

In 2020, the series collaborated with Aquaplus to create a crossover with the tactics RPG series Utawarerumono, in the form of Dokapon Up! Mugen no Roulette.[3]

A remake for Nintendo Switch, Dokapon Kingdom: Connect, is set for release in 2023.[4] It not only will feature a new multiplayer mode, but also several new job classes.[5]

Gameplay[edit]

Players taken on the role of adventurers with the goal of earning the most money at the end of each board, done by spinning a roulette to determine the number of spaces the player will move. This is done not only by saving towns from monsters, in the style of turn-based RPG battles, but also by gathering valuables after becoming the leader of said towns. The character with the most valuables by the end of the game wins.

The player has the option to use items before spinning, the effects of which range from recovering health to causing damage to other characters. When in the actual battle, the player chooses from one of four commands. After winning the battle, the player then receives money and experience points, leveling up after enough have been gained, like in a standard RPG.[6][7][8][9][10]
