Description

Tokyo is in full lockdown, the government's swift, coldblooded response to a surprise demon invasion. Trapped within the sprawling metropolis is the city's helpless populace, forced to turn on each other in order to survive.

A mysterious piece of technology, the COMP, falls into the hands of you and your peers. This device allows you to form contracts, forcing demons to serve you in battle against the otherworldly creatures. There are others with COMPs, so-called demon tamers, who seek to use the demons to satisfy their own whims-be they for justice, peace, or power-in the chaos that was once downtown Tokyo.

Where did the demons come from? Why did they appear? Who created the COMPs, and what is their purpose?

These questions must soon be answered, for if you fail to solve the mystery, much more is at stake than your own lives...

Features:
  • Shin Megami Tensei goes portable - The absorbing story, addictive demon-fusing, and hardcore RPG battle that define the Shin Megami Tensei experience finally arrive on Nintendo's popular dual screen handheld. Expressly designed for Nintendo DS, SMT makes a seamless transition with trademark gameplay features built into an intuitive presentation you can take anywhere!
  • Collect and fuse demons like never before - Demon collection is updated for a new generation: competitive bidding determines the outcome! Place your winning bid through the easy-to-use menu interface to add new demons to your roster. Then, fuse them together to create new, more powerful creatures to aid you in battle.
  • Hybrid SRPG/RPG combat system - A perfect synthesis of strategy and traditional RPG combat, you'll need more than the usual battle strategy to come out on top. Deployed in teams of 2-3, you must choose the right combination of human and demons for each unit placed on the grid, then prepare to launch into first person turn-based battle in the tradition of the classic RPGs!
  • Many possible conclusions - An epic story of mythological proportions lets you decide whether your loyalties lie with the angels, demons, or only yourself. Decisions made throughout the game will affect the course of the story, ultimately ending in a showdown where your choice of alliance will determine the survival of thousands.

Review by Flor on 7th November, 2009
5 stars "Another Excellent Shin Megami Tensei Game!"

In SMT Devil Survivor you and your friends, Atsuro and Yuzu, have come to Tokyo to visit your cousin, Naoya. Instad of meeting him he sends the three of you a COMP. Soon afterwards you find out that there are demons in Tokyo and a lockdown takes place, meaning no one enters and no one leaves. The only means of survival are the COMPS that you have. Because the game has multiple story paths it is up to the player to decide what to do. Lift the lockdown or try to escape is all up to you but the most important thing is to survive.
SMT Devil Survivor is an SRPG hybrid game. The game is grid based mening you move your teams of 3, consisting of a human and two demons, across a grid to reach the enemy.When you or an enemy attacks the battle shifts to a turn based system, like Dragon Quest and FF3. Persona fans will be happy to hear that the elmental weaknesses are back and it is up to the player to exploit these weaknesses so that they ain extra points.
After battles you recieve Macca which is used to purchase demons in the demon auction. You can also obtain more powerfull demons by fusion. Unlike other games DS lets you pick what skills your demons inherit.
Graphics are excellent with cool character portaits, detailed backgrounds and beautiful sprites. Audio wise the music is awesome however ther is no voice acting in this game at all.
If you are a fan of SMT this game is a know brainer but if you are new to SMT this game is still worth it as it is a unique and funĀ game.
