Mimics were first introduced in ''{{ | Mimics were first introduced in ''{{iw|wikipedia|Dragon Quest III}}'', and have appeared in every mainline game since then. Mimics are similar to monsters of the same name in other franchises, such as ''{{iw|wikipedia|Dungeons and Dragons}}''. These monsters, usually found within dungeons, take the form of a treasure chest and attack the player upon attempting to open it. Defeating the mimic generally rewards the player with an item, which differs from game to game. | ||
