    Its a good game. combat system for me is always a chore and the game always feels like a fetch quest. but its surprisingly addictive and collecting fossils and excavating shit is a good way to pass the time. havent finished the game im like on the 4th dig site. but kind of got bored and distracted but its nice overall. if they could've made the battle system more fun, game a bit Its a good game. combat system for me is always a chore and the game always feels like a fetch quest. but its surprisingly addictive and collecting fossils and excavating shit is a good way to pass the time. havent finished the game im like on the 4th dig site. but kind of got bored and distracted but its nice overall. if they could've made the battle system more fun, game a bit harder, better story, more bright and less blocky graphics and more of a variety of music it wouldve been better. On the whole ill give it a 6.5 out of 10. i will return to ti maybe in a week a month maybe a year.… Expand

    It's no Pokémon, but Fossil Fighters is still a fun game with loads of charm in its world, story, and dialogue. It also adds some variation with its gameplay, which is cool to see. It won't hold your attention for too long, but it's still a pretty fun game.

    The only excuse for Fossil Fighters sophomoric presentation could be that it’s targeted at the younger DS gamer.

    Fossil Fighters' robust roster of collectible dinosaurs and its fast-paced, lightly tactical battles make it an appealing adventure.

    Those gripes aside, Fossil Fighters doesn't have what it takes to beat Pokemon, but it's still a cool game for kids who love thunder lizards.
