Ni No Kuni and the Wrath of the White Witch, Part 2

Hello there, listener, and thank you for giving my new podcast a try.  This week's episode is all about the major gameplay elements found in one of my favorite video games of all time: Ni No Kuni and the Wrath of the White Witch.  In this episode, I will outline the major gameplay elements at work in this title. 

Do you like your RPGs full of places to explore?  Ni No Kuni offers a beautiful world map full of secrets, four different types of treasure chests to find, and plenty of diverse towns and dungeons to satisfy the explorer inside of you.

Want to experience a unique combat system?  Ni No Kuni's battle system combines the turn-based combat of Dragon Quest with a healthy dose of action RPG goodness a la the Tales of series. 

And I would be remiss if I forgot to mention the monster taming & raising element of Ni No Kuni.  Tame, customize, and evolve a variety of familiars to fight alongside Oliver!   

And for those times you want a break from the main story, there are a multitude of side quests & bounty hunts to complete in this game. 

Last but not least is the inclusion of alchemy in this game.  This particular element is more of a mixed bag, with the ability to obtain the best gear in the entire game through alchemy weighed down by the obscure process of collecting recipes & the grind of acquiring the necessary rare ingredients.

No need to worry if you haven't played Ni No Kuni yet; there are no spoilers in this episode.
