I like that this game is many times easier to play then the origional spectrobes. Tutorials show you how to do everything from excavation, to battling. As the game goes, it explains everything you need to know, in simple terms, and its format is easy to use, the menus are simple, and easy to navagate, spectrobes are easier to find and excavate, and easy to awaken, organize, and raise. Battling is simple, with the "A" button being a simple attack, the "B" button being a special attack, and the "Y" button being a combo attack. Simple and strait forwards. :) Best spectrobes, yet!
I played the orginal as my first game for my DS, its use of the console is brill. But this new one ' Beyond the portals' Pushes it to its limits. With an all new graphic and layout sceme this looks better than ever, and being a hardcore gamers, probably the best graphics on the DS i have ever seen. Alot of people have compared it to 'Pokemon' and yes its collect 'em features of battling monsters is similar, but it is a whole new ride. With excavating fossils, then awaking them with your voice, feeding them, petting them and fighting with them... in a sad way you get kind of connected with them! In this knew game, the have DOUBLED the amount if spectrobes to collect, some you have to dig up and train, others you have to place a card in the touch screen and input secret codes to be able to claim them. The addition of DARK SPECTROBES sounds cool but... kinda rip off... same spectrobes just coloured black... no different really. But the rest of the new ones are well designed and each fight in a unique way. If you have played the first, YOU NEED to get this game, if you havent played the first it will still make sense... monsters from years ago, trained to fight evil creatures called Krawl. Simple. OH and if you were dissapointed by the fact if no real story in the first sept a load of evil slime monsters, you wont be disapointed. Not the most original story but a story all the more, with plenty of conversation and boss fights. Well worth a try!Read full review
