    Amazing game! Kind of like a strategy game later on. You have to choose the right vivos to use, and choose the right pale pals to tag along with you! Beware: This game is addicting!

    While Fossil Fighters: Frontier doesn't offer anything particularly new to the field of 3DS gaming, I still found it enjoyable after purchase. It reminded me a lot of my first playing the original DS game a while back. The characters are lovable, albeit a little bit stereotypical (and at times, a bit much so), it's still a slew of boys and girls that I enjoyed getting to know throughoutWhile Fossil Fighters: Frontier doesn't offer anything particularly new to the field of 3DS gaming, I still found it enjoyable after purchase. It reminded me a lot of my first playing the original DS game a while back. The characters are lovable, albeit a little bit stereotypical (and at times, a bit much so), it's still a slew of boys and girls that I enjoyed getting to know throughout the game. The mechanics are repetetive, but it's nothing that kids would find too boring. They story's interesting, dialogue fairly well structured, and the music's enjoyable. And while the older audience would find the game a little more on the corny side, it's the perfect game for kids, who can easily log a hours into this game. So, while it's nothing new, it's certainly not a boring game by any means. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I disagree with the strong disliking of this game. Probably one of the most underrated 3DS games to be made. Expand

    Handsome and harmless, but a lack of depth means these dinos will never rule the earth. [Aug 2015, p.73]

    If the combat was more fun and parts of it didn’t feel so cheap, this series could have some legs, but for the third entry in the franchise, it still feels like it has a long way to go.

    It’s an alright Pokemon clone but why would you go for a clone if you can just play the original? [Jul 2015, p.072]
