I would give this game a mixed recommendation if I could as I feel I can only recommend the game to avid fans of Digimon.

The game (only talking about Cyber Sleuth as I haven't played Hacker's Memory) has decent turn-based combat but gets boring when you have animations set to short (which is a necessity given the grind needed to get ultra and fusion Digimon) and the lack of stylized UI (look at Atlus' games P5 or Metaphor for a good example). The walking speed of the player character is incredibly slow and the environments get boring since they all have the same general look. The story and characters are fine but are not nearly as good as I've come to expect from the franchise.

I'd give the game a 6/10 for these reasons and only recommend playing if you want to compare it to Time Stranger, which comes out in October and seems to fix/improve most of the problems I mentioned.
