The preview talks about the different ways in which the Wiimote is used in the game and how the game is designed. Dragon Quest Swords is an on-rails type of game, you use the B button to move forward along the path until enemies are encountered. The preview describes the different aspects of combat, such as choosing the angle of attack (up-down, left-right, diagonal) and how blocking works. This quote sums up the previewers mood toward the game: "Overall, the demo offered a good amount of fun...but it's, in its current form, a simple design that's far from a game that's going to reach classic status on the Wii system."

GameSpot Hands-On "Combat is handled simply, you'll just slash the Wii remote to attack. In the demo it looked like there were about three major motions that resulted in different slashes: a simple horizontal cut, a simple vertical cut and diagonal slashes from either corner of the screen." "Holding the B button switches your onscreen cursor into a shield that you'll then use to block attacks by holding it in front of incoming projectiles."
