'''Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker''' is the first game in the Dragon Quest Monsters series to be in 3D. It uses the [[Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King]] game engine out of battle, uses cel-shaded animation, and the battles are of the same type: commands are issued in a turn based style, then are executed in full 3D. | '''Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker''' is the first game in the ''Dragon Quest Monsters'' series to be in 3D.

The battle system itself is very similar to previous Dragon Quest Monsters games. The player controls up to three monsters that make up the party, and can issue them direct orders or set them to one of 5 AI settings. The main character does not directly participate in battles except for when the player uses items. | The battle system itself is very similar to previous ''Dragon Quest Monsters'' games.

Joker does not have random battles. The only way to encounter enemies is to run into one on the overworld. The monsters can be seen, avoided, and attacked from their back to get a free attack round. Later on, the player gets the Whistle ability. This can be used at any time, other than in the city and where monsters don't appear, and in a way does count as a random battle as the enemies are randomly chosen. | Joker does not have random battles.
