The story in Ambition of the Slimes for PC, 3DS and etc. focuses on the race of small monster slimes. Such monsters are the basic type of opponents during the early stages of campaigns in majority of Japanese role-playing games. In Ambition of the Slimes they lived peacefully until one day humans arrived at their territories and started murdering everyone on their way. The slimes weren’t able to fight back this threat. However, after some time they discovered that they can enter human bodies and control them. With this skill they decided to counterattack.
The unusual plot was transformed into a tactical role-playing game with a turn-based combat system. During the game the player is mostly participating in fights that, thanks to the skills of the slimes, are quite unusual. Instead of fighting, the slimes are taking control over their enemies and then they use the bodies to attack other people. The monsters are divided into a few types, each with unique traits. In addition to regular slimes, there are slimes that can teleport, increase statistics of controlled enemies or ones that can control even the strongest foes.

Game Ratings for Ambition of the Slimes Video Game.
Nintendo Life: 8 / 10 by Morgan Sleeper
All in all, Ambition of the Slimes is a lovable little game. It takes a classic concept — the grid-based strategy-RPG — and infuses it with a fun new conceit, by placing characters in the role of the lowly Slimes that would be experience-point fodder in any other RPG. Even better, it runs with that idea to deliver fun twists on the gameplay — like the 'Claim' command that lets you take over your enemies — that make the most of the theme. Add in a fun old-school presentation and a heap of personality, and Slimes is an easy recommendation for SRPG fans looking for quick, quirky fun.

If nothing else there is genuinely nothing else quite like Ambition of the Slime, and the concept of actually leading weak, largely defenceless units into battle is such a clever way to flip the tactics RPG on its head that it's well worth looking into for fans of the genre, purely as a curiosity if nothing else.
Nintendo Insider: 7 / 10 by Alex Seedhouse
Ambition of the Slimes will successfully upend your view on what’s recognised as the weakest monster to have ever graced a video game. The twists that it makes on what we have come to expect from a turn-based RPG are clever and well considered, even if the game’s general design has as many quirks as the concept that it has been built around.
