Digimon World Dawn and Digimon World Dusk, originally released as Digimon Story Sunburst & Moonlight (デジモンストーリー サンバースト&ムーンライト Dejimon Sutōrī Sanbāsuto & Mūnraito?) in Japan, are two Digimon video games for the Nintendo DS handheld game console. They were released in Japan on March 29, 2007 and North America on September 18, 2007. Together, they serve as the second game in the Digimon Story series, though they were marketed as games within the Digimon World series in North America.
A strange virus causes an earthquake in the Sunshine and Dark Moon districts, damaging the access points to the Digital World and causing many Digimon to mysteriously degenerate into Digi-Eggs. In Dawn, rumors have spread that the Night Crow from Darkmoon City were responsible for the incident. In Dusk, many assume the Light Fang from Sunshine City are to blame. The player takes the role of a Night Crow tamer (in Dusk), or a Light Fang tamer (in Dawn) to uncover the mystery behind the tremors.
Note that although the games share a main story, the plot differs between Dawn and Dusk to some degree. Players also explore different areas depending on the version of the game they play. You may choose to play as a boy or girl, though the boy and girl look slightly different depending on the version you play. The two games feature parallel storylines with a main team in each that opposes the other (Light Fang in Dawn and Night Crow in Dusk), though the two teams work together towards a common cause. With both games you visit the opposite game city. So in Dawn, near the end of the game you will visit Darkmoon city and in reverse for Dusk.
