Golden Sun: Dark Dawn

Date played: April 23rd
Platform: DS
Time played: 30 minutes
Session fun rating: 6/10

New Djinn!
My 3DS was sitting next to me while I was waiting for the intermission to end in the NHL playoff game I was watching so I decided to pop Golden Sun in to pass the time.

I went through a part of the dungeon that leads to the village of Passaj.  There was a new mechanic introduced where some of the blocks in the environment can be lifted by a whirlwind spell.  Oh yeah and I got a new earth Djinn.  Yay!

It allowed for a few new puzzles that were pretty interesting.  The fights have become boring though as regular enemies are too weak to make things fun.  I expect to enjoy myself again once tougher enemies and bosses show up.
