Excellent Game

This is an extremely enjoyable game that features characters from the Mario and Dragon Quest franchises. It is most similar to Monopoly, with players purchasing and investing in real estate properties, however it takes a step beyond and allows players to by stock in other players' property and gain money as they make improvements. In single player mode, you can unlock characters and boards, and earn in game achievement trophies. Multiplayer mode allows for intense competition between friends as they balance earning money with preventing other players from doing the same.
We bought this game not knowing exactly what to expect. We read that it is a popular series in Japan, and as Dragon Quest and Mario fans, we thought it was worth a try. We were so right. This is an excellent game and well worth buying. The only flaw is that, like Monopoly, it can get rather lengthy.

Fortune Street is pretty much a direct port of a hugely popular, 20-year-old, Japanese franchise, Itadaki Street. Since you think anything Japanese is awesome, you should love this game. Although you may argue with the title, calling it something ridiculous like American Itadaki Street 1 or something.

Fortune Street Review comment
But it's not really a Dragon Quest OR Mario game. Those franchises just whored-out their characters to serve as guests in another franchise. Saying you like Fortune Street as a Dragon Quest or Mario game is like saying you like SoulCalibur 4 as a Star Wars game.
