Story
★★★★★
"Solid"
An absolute master of the dungeon, Yuzo Koshiro unfurls a synthetic prog-rock of rare intensity, to which this Untold version adds sumptuous orchestral arrangements. Each labyrinthine floor throbs with an obsessive tension, supporting exploration up close. This unique sonic signature remains the soul of the saga.
Gameplay
"Excellent"
Fun
"Mild"
Addictiveness
"Obsessive"
Mapping a hostile dungeon with the stylus while following an original story, managing resources and preparing for every F.O.E. encounter creates an exploration where caution is constantly rewarded. Building your ideal guild keeps the descent going. The difficulty punishes recklessness, but this blend of strategy and mapmaking holds a singular grip.
Difficulty
"Punishing"
Drawing the labyrinth's map yourself is only the start: you must anticipate the FOEs, those roaming sentinels that patrol the floors and punish the slightest carelessness. Building a coherent party and knowing when to retreat matter more than grinding. This remake of the very first entry keeps an old-school rigor, harsh yet rarely so rewarding once a floor is tamed.
Lifespan
"Massive"
Rediscovering the first Etrian Odyssey enriched with a real story revives a mapping adventure as demanding as it is addictive. Drawing your maps, managing your classes and unravelling the amnesiac girl's mystery demands long, patient hours. That fleshed-out remake, true to the series' spirit, holds lasting appeal for crawler fans.

Etrian Odyssey Untold - The Millennium Girl (3DS) price, value & rarity
Etrian Odyssey Untold is the remake of the very first entry and one of the rarest PAL Atlus releases around, with NIS America handling a brief distribution. It is also historically the title that introduced Story mode, making it the recommended entry point in French. That double dimension of rarity and franchise position has been pulling the price up steadily.
An underrated gem
A remake of the very first Etrian Odyssey, it grafts on a story mode while preserving the original's stylus exploration and razor-sharp difficulty. As a niche genre demands, it stayed out of the spotlight. Whether discovering the series or revisiting its roots, it's a refined dungeon-crawler that rewards patience and method.
Is Etrian Odyssey Untold - The Millennium Girl still worth playing in 2026?
Released in 2013 on 3DS, Atlus' project is a remake of the very first Etrian Odyssey, a first person dungeon crawler where the exploration of a labyrinth comes with a map to draw yourself on the touch screen. This version adds a Story mode with characters and cutscenes, more accessible, alongside the more austere Classic mode. The deep class management, the demanding turn based combat and the satisfaction of completing your map forge a gripping loop. The austerity and the difficulty target an informed audience. An excellent dungeon crawler, recommended for fans of methodical exploration and of cartography.
