It might be Dokapon Kingdom, but it got pretty awful reviews all over the board despite the fun concept so I never played it.

'Sides it's 90% Monopoly and 10% DND, since there's only battles once you land on the same square.

Dokapon really doesn't fit the mold of normal video game review schedules, as far as I understand them (a few weeks at most, mostly alone). So this leads to negative reviews because, and I'm assuming here, they were playing against the cheating AI that yells annoying crap before it takes its turn, which is frustrating and robs the game of much of its satisfaction. A "proper" round of Dokapon requires human opponents and days of play, but under those conditions it's a really fun game that requires thought and planning and feels satisfying when you win and only lets you blame yourself for losing.

Honestly, it has to be planned out like pen-and-paper RP sessions to be really fun, but if you can corral enough people to play regularly, then it is really fun. But that's a lot to ask when you just want to play video games.

And, uh, house rules or something.
