About the Game
A turn-based RPG that moves between Tokyo and the Digital World as you collect and raise Digimon.
Digimon Story Time Stranger is a role-playing game in the long-running Digimon series, developed by Media.Vision and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. It is a single-player experience built around a story that asks you to chase down the mystery behind a world-threatening disaster.
The story starts in Tokyo, where a secret organization agent meets an unknown creature called a Digimon and gets caught up in a mysterious explosion. When the protagonist comes to, the world has been rolled back eight years. The narrative weaves together past and future, the human world and the otherworldly one, and humans and Digimon, which gives the adventure a sense of time-travel mystery.
You move between two worlds: the human world and the Digital World, Elysius, where Digimon live. The store description says each world has its own traits, and the game uses those traits in its mechanics and missions. The Digital World is presented with a more refined visual style than earlier Digimon games, and it includes several distinctive maps to explore.
Combat is turn-based and strategic. The store copy stresses that Digimon are equal partners, and your bond with them is tested when battles get tough. Over 450 Digimon can be recruited along the way, then evolved, de-evolved, and customized to suit your team. The lineup mixes series favorites with Digimon making their first appearance in this game, so the core loop is simple to describe: explore, recruit, build a party, fight, and raise your partners.

Who It Is (and Is Not) For
Recommended For
Fans of Digimon and of Japanese role-playing games will likely feel at home, especially if they enjoy building a team and raising creatures over time. Players who like turn-based combat and a story that jumps across time and between worlds will find plenty to follow.
Not Recommended For
If you want fast-paced action or real-time combat, this turn-based game will feel slow by comparison. Players who prefer games without mature themes should also check the content notes, since the store flags adult content.
What the Steam Reviews Say
Steam reviewers rate Digimon Story Time Stranger Very Positive, with 89% of reviews positive across tens of thousands of reviews. That combination of a high positive share and a large review pool suggests most players who have finished or spent time with the game have enjoyed it.
Steam calculates its review labels from the share of positive reviews and the number of reviews, so a high percentage backed by a large pool is a fairly solid signal. Individual tastes still vary, so a Very Positive game can be a poor fit for a particular player. When a game has only a small number of reviews, the label is less reliable, but this title has enough volume that the overall picture is clear.
