Dale North reviews the game Shiren the Wanderer for the Wii. Describing it as "player-friendly", check out the full review to find out how it managed a seven out of ten.

Back when Atlus first gave me a preview of Wii game Shiren the Wanderer, they kind of tiptoed around the roguelike label. Dungeon crawler? Sure. But let's not call it a mean name, now. That's where they were coming from, and I totally get it. And Shiren, a port of Sega-released DS game Mysterious Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer, was supposed to be much more accessible than your standard roguelike anyway. Now that I've played it, I can tell you it is definitely more accessible. Easier. More forgiving. That said, the good news here is that there's still plenty enough of a challenge to entertain fans of the genre. There is actually an excellent balance here, making this a good pick for anyone who likes role-playing titles.
