Last week, Atlus sent out a cryptic, humorous "apology" letter from "Player 4," asking forgiveness in advance for humiliating other players in some unannounced game. As it turns out, the teaser was for a localized version of Sting's Dokapon Kingdom, announced today for Wii and PS2. Dokapon Kingdom is a four-player board game/RPG that emphasizes shifting alliances and betrayals between its players, being dubbed a "friendship-destroying party game."The Dokapon Kingdom website features wallpaper, a description of the game's story (in which monsters attack and heroes vie to save the kingdom and earn money from the king), and introductions to three of Dokapon's venal characters.
Dokapon is scheduled for an October 14th release, for $40. After the post break, we've got a trailer and a larger version of the image used in the boxart.

Thank you Atlus for bringing over quality games from over seas. This looks more entertaining then most 3rd party releases I've seen in the last month or two! I like the idea of the RPG/board game. Kinda spices up what is becoming two stale genres as of late.

Adolescent Peach in the game!? INSTA-BUY!!!
In all seriousness though, this game would have to be online for me to pick it up. So hopefully they're working something out over there at Atlus HQ. The graphics could be a much, much, better, but being as though this is my beloved Atlus, they get a pass.

Somehow, I think my friends might find the art style too... annoying to merit playing. ._.

Man, this is kinda cool 8D. My family loves playing Mario Party together ( the Mario Party games aren't so bad when you have a large family always willing to play :'D). I think I'll keep my eye on this one :].

I wondered why it was taking so long for others to cash in on Mario Party clones.

Actually people have been making cheap mario party clones for some time now. Usually some kind of Bratz tie in always some kind of shovelware. This on the other hand actually looks like it's doing something a bit different, RPG elements and a board game, the ability to directly mess around with other players directly.
