If your looking for an RPG with a fresh concept and great gameplay, than Spectrobes should not be looked over on the DS.
The concept for the storyline in this game is original in the fact that it does not follow the same structure as previous games in the past have (Poke'mon, Digimon, etc) This game actually tries something new, when the plot of the story is concerned.
The battle system in this game is unique as well. Unlike previous RPG turn based games, Spectrobes is a real-time battle experience that captures you in the game with every battle you fight. The strength of your Spectrobes are key to your survival against Krawl attacks.
Also, the game has a one-of-a kind excavation feature, which allows for you to dig for minerals, information cubes, and other items needed to help strengthen your Spectrobes and help you gain victory in you soon to come battles.
But put it simply, Spectrobes is a game that should definitely not be looked over for the DS. It's unique formula helps break this game away from the cliche' gaming styles that you may seen in other games. Spectrobes is something that everyone, who owns a DS, should experience.
