    Little Battlers eXperience is a hell of a ride with its colourful visuals, animated cutscenes and over the top plot twists. It becomes a bit grindy and controls feel clunky at times but the awesome customization and variety totally make up for its shortcomings.

    Almost as fun as Inazuma Eleven. Kids will enjoy it more, but any RPG lover will find many good things in it.

    It comes really late in Europe, but it's worth all of your consideration if you like the genre. The narration is sound, and the gameplay delivers loads of fun.

    Little Battlers Experience has a predictable story, but thanks to awesome anime cutscenes it does come to life. It is a lot of fun to customize the minirobots outside and inside. Too bad this game can only be played locally, cause it would have been a great online multiplayer experience.

    Praise for Level-5, as it was about time to bring Little Battlers eXperience to the European market. Its fluid and fun combat, along with the degree of robot customization will bring many hours of fun, which could only benefit from an online multiplayer mode and from a more elaborate plot.

    If you have any interest in battling, robots, or battling robots, LBX is worth a look, but it's not really hooking me in the way Pokémon does and Yo-Kai Watch later this year has the potential to.

    Despite the occasional clunkiness in battles, there is a well-developed battle system lurking beneath the surface that really just needed a bit more polish. Unfortunately, there's a lot of crippling little details between the battles, systems, and presentation that add up to a very lukewarm start for the series outside of Japan.

Only downside is on the new 3ds it doesn't use the nub for the camera which can get stuck once in a blue moon.… Expand

    One of the best games for the 3DS system, long story and good gameplay, many customization option for the robots, and much post game.

Little Battlers eXperience has such a coolI'm slightly biased in my opinion...I have been a Level-5 fan since their first game in the US. Little Battlers eXperience has such a cool concept that any fan of medabots/customrobo/gundam/etc. will instantly fall for. My favorite thing about the game is the fact that the fights take place inside technologically advanced cardboard boxes. Wrap your head around that one! When you are fighting other LBX it doesn't feel like your space is limited at all....I love that!

    Other cool things the game does: Voiceovers, Good Graphics, Surprisingly Fun Game Mechanics.

    Some things that you might not like: Some fights are super super hard, customizing the LBX can be overly complex at times, weapon types are 90% melee weapons.

    Overall I like the game....should I have bought it on day 1? Maybe not, but I have been enjoying it nonetheless. If you like Level-5 or miniature robot arena-style fighters, then I suggest you pick this one up!    … Expand

You replay the Story of the "Danball Senki" Anime, which was really entertaining for me and the must buy Point. But like already said....there is no Challenge. After the Player twiddled into the Mechanics and learnt how to play, he slashes through anything the Story has to offer and the normally exciting Story gets boring. After the first 2 Hours it was more Talk between the Characters than Fighting because the AI is Way way to weak.… Expand
