I have played this game a few years ago, and was slightly disappointed by it. In the game, Time increases in three-hour segments.Going to most places on the map takes three hours, no matter what you do there.A battle at the Battle Arena takes three hours. Since each tournament is made up of three battles, you will be there for nine hours. Visiting your apartment takes up no time unless you choose to rest.
The longest a dragon can live is about 30 years (each day that passes in game is considered 1 year). So you have 30 days to get your dragon to the top. If you are lucky, you will breed a super-"dragon" who will not age when it hits the adult catagory. I had gotten one and its final form looked like a anthrpomorphic, spikey dragon dude.
To "breed" dragons, you fill out a phrase with key words, and those key words might give your baby a stat boost. For Example: The Egg is crying. This phrase will give your baby extra wisdom upon birth.
When the baby is ready to grow into its adult form (about 7 days after birth), it cocoons itself for a day, which gives you time to go to the junkyard and buy stuff. The adult will cocoon around 20 days, and the old form will live about 5 days after emerging from its cocoon. If you decide to play this game, don't waste your time training your baby, send it into the arena fights as soon as it is born. They gain stats after every battle, so its all good. They don't need rest, even though the game says they do.
Now on the fighting. you buy your dragon a weapon and shield from the store in town. Sometimes you can get a good item from the junkyard.
The Ranks in the arena are E D C B & A.
The battles are Rock/Paper/Scissor games: You have these battle options: Defend, Special & Attack . Special beats Attack, Attack beats Defend, Defend beats Special.
I personally think the game cheats most of the time. I waited until the computer chose its move before i did. Which seemed to work. I had baby dragons in the B Rank arena fights, which was very hard to do. It was kinda funny watching my baby dragon beat up a grown dragon with more hit points then mine.
Some of the "dragons" look like tombstones and half-cat/seal creatures (which are the spirit dragons), there are giant wasps with hairdryers and cannons for an abdomen. And some reminded me of pressure cookers...
The only down side of the game was how long the dragons lived.
Other then that, the graphics are good for the PS1, and you can have 2 player battles. You can use a pregenerated dragon from a memory card, which i don't advise because they are not as good as your trained dragon, or you can use a dragon that you raised.
