    The maps save it... - 3 stars
    Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King Official Strategy Guide Review
    I was a bit surprised when the game left out all sorts of important information - such as key treasure locations, infamous monster locations, and actual general "strategy" for how to beat baddies and bosses. (you're better off looking up a guide from GameFAQs)

    The only reason this gets a moderate 3 stars is because of the maps. Having a visual guide for the overworld treasures was pretty darn helpful, enough to bat a half-blind eye at this book's considerable flaws.

    Dragon Quest VIII Strategy Guide - 5 stars
    Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King Official Strategy Guide Review
    Was delivered in perfect condition and very quickly. A must for anyone who wants to have 100% completion of the game.
    very useful guide for a complex game - 4 stars
    Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King Official Strategy Guide Review
    This is useful to use along with online walkthroughs. A detailed walkthrough, with specific strategy suggestions for each boss, would require a book much longer than this one. This book does give a primer on how to begin and then goes on to describe the various battle skills and spells, as well as handy descriptions and recipes of armor and weapons and items. The maps are nice also. This book has enough information to play the game, even without the walkthroughs. The walkthroughs, though, give some protection from the trauma of being beaten in battle and their suggestions can get you through parts of the game more speedily.
    Fair - 5 stars
    Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King Official Strategy Guide Review
    The good about this guide is that it is NOT a walkthrough, is a GUIDE, meaning that you don't get spoilers of any kind, just a guide to optional interesting items, a bestiary, treasure chest locations and maps of cities, a guide, if you want someone to tell you where to move the cursor you are probably better off with some IGN text one. To me this is a good thing because you still have the story to look forward to and don't have to worry about impossible mazes or whatever, and it is fair.
    Huge guide for huge game but appearences can be deceiving - 3 stars
    Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King Official Strategy Guide Review
    This guide does have great info and it's huge has lots of maps but it doesn't hold your hand and tell ya how to get from point A to B. Doesn't give away any story but there's alot of missing infomation i was more frustrated because the lack of info. It give's info on some aspects of the game while others just non-existent. This is more of a game atlas then a game guide with some side information i suggest gamefaqs or other online sites be better if you really want to have a guide then i suggest getting the piggyback uk version of the guide be bit more expensive but has full info and walkthrough i got mine at amazon.co.uk i give the piggyback version 5 stars but this guides just falls quite bit short as a game guide.
