 Rocket Slime is the best! August 26, 2007
Rocket Slime is the best game ever! It is so awesome! You HAVE to buy it! It's all about the Plob, who come and "slime-nap" everyone except you, because they mistake you for a worm. The Plob has lots of minions. One is called a platypunk. To defeat enimies like that, you have to attack them by "Elasto Blast"ing them. You can also
battle them in tank battles with your Schleiman Tank,(as shown on th cover.) You can change your tank ammo, crew, and HP once you get to a certain point in the game.You can even do tank battles with your freinds! So buy this game today, because I guarantee endless fun!
My favorite DS game to date !!! August 7, 2007
Rocket Slime is just a joy to play. I'm a 30-something gamer and this is my favorite DS game so far. It's clever and cute and has a great, quirky little story. It's just a fun pick-up-and-play game, but be warned, it's very addictive! While the game does have some repetative elements, it has been carefully balanced so new abilities, new items and the story line keep you intrigued. The game has some very clever game mechanics too. For instance, everything you collect in the game can be used as ammo to fight your tank battles!! The items can also be combined to make even more powerful ammo. This is just a fantastic little game that every DS owner should put on their "must play" list. Experienced RPG gamers will delight in a well-made game while those new to RPG games will find a deep game in a very simple and straight forward format. FUN! FUN! FUN STUFF!
Superb RPG with Arcade Elements - suits RPG lovers (and non-lovers) June 27, 2007

OK, so while the graphics are cartoony, the gameplay is FANTASTIC AND appeals to people young and old alike! The premise behind this game is just too fun to ignore. This is a combination of RPG and arcade, which means that both fans of RPGs and Arcade games will probably love this game.
While I normally don't go for RPGs, after reading the reviews in Amazon, I actually ordered it from Amazon.
No regrets so far. The game starts up with the basic you, a cute little blue slime with a special move - Ecto Blast. You go around collecting literally everything you can, including your enemies (it'll be VERY useful later!), save slimes, and of course, progress your mission in restoring Boingburg!
It would've been boring if it was just that. Not too far down the game suddenly there's the element of tank battles - this one's tons of fun! This is where every object you collect can be used as ammo for your tank, including yourself! So suddenly you've got this new element of battle in the game.
Further down the line, you can add crew members to help you load the cannons, infiltrate enemies, etc. As the mission progresses, you get to visit more places. Without spoiling your sense of adventure, the games slowly unveils and becomes more interesting. In that sense, there is not only a sense of progress but also an element of surprise as you get these different aspects of the game unveiling. So it's not boring, like typical RPGs. Of course, to top it up, it's a very cute game and hence rather relaxing (except during some intense tank battles) - wait till you are able to upgrade your tank's HP!!!
This is one game that appeals to fans AND non-fans of RPGs. Due to it's fun nature, it keeps you coming back for more. One of the best DS lite games I've played. Worth every penny because the game's pretty long too!
 Pocket This Slime June 14, 2007

I'm actually pleasantly surprised at the number of reader reviews there are for this game, as supposed to a more publicized game like Contact. Or maybe this was publicized, I dunno. I picked up Rocket Slime several weeks after it was released, and only because I found a used copy of it at EB Games for 24.99, and the EB card offers 10% discount (plus there was a promotional additinal 15% off)
And boy was it a good pickup. It was sitting in my (at the time) small pile of DS games. On the 5 hour flight to the East Coast, I decided to pop it into my DS and ended up playing it even while I was deplaning and waiting for my baggage at the baggage claim.
There's two main venues of action, the first being the main RPG in which you go around fighting as a blue slime in an active fighting RPG. The second are these hilariously fun tank battles, which aren't too difficult, but fun nonetheless.
My only complaint with this game was that it was ridiculously easy. I don't think I died at any point in the game, neither in the tank battle or the dungeon progression. Still, it's a small taint on a fun, time consuming RPG that's hard to put down.
Rocket Slime is one of the more underrated DS titles available in my opinion, mainly because it was overshadowed by New! Super Mario Bros. when it was released. It's a very pleasant pickup, and a very enjoyable time on your DS, and I highly recommend it.
$29.99 retail, hasn't gone very far from that, but easy to find used for cheaper. The retail is worth the game.
Incredibly Charming June 11, 2007

This may seem strange to you, but I can summarize this review in one sentence: If you like the cover art, you'll like the game.
Here's the thing - it's charming. It's full of puns, both terrible and great, often both at the same time. The gameplay is offbeat, the characters are funny, and the game was clearly made by people who loved making it. It has a certain ... verve that almost no other game has, and if there's something about that cover art that catches you - the bright colors, the irrepressible smile on the face of the blue blob leaping out at you - then you'll probably find things in the game that you'll like in a similar fashion.
If, on other other hand, you look at the cover art and think, "Man, that looks stupid," you probably won't like the game all that much. Which is sort of a pity, because it's really quite excellent. For me, it's one of the games that gets the most time in my DS, and despite not really using the touchscreen aspect of the system (save for "customizing" some artwork), it's a perfect game to pass a little time. Charming through and through.
