You first start out as Akira, a boy who has almost finished his Tamer training, confident that he will soon become an official Tamer. A good friend of his, Mr. Zudokorn, allows him to borrow his Digi-Beetle, and all the Digimon in it, for Akira's Training Mission. After finishing the mission, one of the easiest in the game, you will be rewarded your Tamer license and your very own Digi-Beetle, named Gunner.
The game itself is vast, with hundreds of Digimon to fight, befriend, or train. Present is a unique digivolution concept: Not only can you Digivolve normally, you can also DNA Digivolve, in which two Digimon merge to permanently become one, which eventually acquires all the techniques of its "parents." It is one Digivolution level lower than the initial two Digimon: For example, when a Champion fuses with a Champion, a Rookie will be the result. An important advantage of DNA Digivolving is that it raises your maximum level. This becomes necessary to continue in the game as your Digimon reach certain levels. For example, if two of your Digimon "maxed out" their levels, and their "Next lvl" experience bar is full of "9"s, they can no longer go to the next level. However, DNA Digivolving will allow your Digimon to level up further than any of its "parents" by raising the maximum limit.
Controls are easy; maneuvering in dungeons is very convenient, as there are only directional commands, the X button, which opens chests, check the area in front of you, etc, and the square button, in which you examine the Digimon near you.

[edit] Plot
From the Instruction Manual: "The Digimon live peacefully on the Directory Continent. Recently, however, wild Digimon have begun to attack the city. The player (you) lives in Digital City and joins a Guard Team that is charged with protecting the peace and security of the region. You're just in the nick of time..."
At the start of the game, Akira finishes his last Training Mission and joins the Blue Falcon Team (canon to the story. The player has the option to choose Blue Falcon, Gold Hawk, or Black Sword). He receives missions from the Team Leader, which involve entering Domains and hunting down evil Digimon.
[edit] Digivolving
Digivolving is one of the game's most interesting and difficult parts to understand. Digivolving is the process in which a Digimon "evolves" into a new level. A Rookie Digimon will always Digivolve into a Champion level, a Champion level will always Digivolve into an Ultimate level, and an Ultimate level will [almost] always Digivolve to a Mega level (some Ultimates don't digivolve). However, a Digimon's Digivolultion is affected by how many DP (Digivolving points) it has. Look to the DP section for more information.
[edit] DP
DP (Digivolving points) is the most important factor of Digivolution. You can gain DP from DNA-Digivolving your Digimon. Every time you DNA-Digivolve, you get an extra DP but beware if you digivolve then you may become sukamon and will not evolve. DP will cause your Digimon to Digivolve into different forms (For example, in order to get an Imperialdramon, you must have at least a Veemon, Flamedramon, or Raidramon at a DP of 8). Sometimes, if you reach a high DP number (20) you will obtain a rare and powerful Digimon.
[edit] DNA Digivolving
DNA Digivolving is another important factor of Digivolution. You must always DNA Digivolve, unless you are satisfied with your current Digimon. When you DNA Digivolve, the two Digimon you picked will form a new, lower level Digimon. This combined Digimon is usually much stronger than normal Digimon of its level. However, you must know what levels form what. 2 Champions form a Rookie level, 2 Ultimates form a Champion, 2 Megas form an Ultimate, a Champion and an Ultimate form a Rookie, a Champion and a Mega form a Rookie, and an Ultimate and a Mega form a Champion. Rookies cannot DNA Digivolve. When you DNA Digivolve, your max EL (Experience Level) will increase. The formula for this is:
Highest level+(lowest level divided by 5)= New Max EL
Ex:
32+(27 divided by 5)= 37
27 divided by 5= 5 (never round up)
32+5= 37
[edit] Max EL
When you reach your max EL, you will see that your Digimon's "needed experience points to next level" will be complete with 9s. You must DNA Digivolve in order to get a higher max EL. The maximum EL obtainable by DNA digivolving is unknown.
