    If so much of the game weren't based solely on the touch screen, Konami might have had a winner. [Feb 2006, p.100]

    Despite a cool concept, the unusable controls and other flaws prevent Dragon Booster from making the cut.

    The idea is solid, but the haphazard controls suck most of the enjoyment from these rails. We'd like to see more dragons in our games, but requiring the use of an ice pack after bouts with the stylus seems unnecessary.

    For the love of all that is holy, stay away from this game, it’s one of the worst examples of use of license out there.

    A poor game with next to no modes, excitement or stuff to recommend it. [July 2006, p.84]

    Dragon Booster is a halfhearted and practically unplayable racing game with no redeeming qualities.

    Parents, avoid this game if you don’t want your little tyke smashing his expensive DS against a wall in frustration. Dragon Booster fails in nearly every way and never should have seen the outside of the development studio.

    3rd Person Action: Collecting, Breeding, Exploration
    1st Person Dragon Riding: Combat, Racing, Fighting
    Capture, Breed and Collect Up to 12 Different Dragons
    Trade Gear and Dragons over Wireless Connection

    And, for some reason. Half way through the prosedure...they pulled all of that stuff out. See for yourself http://www.konami.com/gs/gameinfo.php?id=46 and, thats false advertisment and, I want answers and, that version of the game put out. If that version was released the game would be 10 times better.    … Expand
