    Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs offers fun gameplay but it lacks content and variety. While kids will have a blast fighting different dinosaurs and trade items with their pals, adults will have a hard time replaying the game once completed.

    Overall this is the nicest, cleanest 3D game I have yet to see on the 3DS. I can't wait to see more titles from Ubisoft as it appears that they have utilized the 3D screen to its fullest. Unfortunately for its lack of gameplay variety and the simplistic controls, I do not recommend it for more mature gamers.

    All in all, the game's okay, but feels thrown together.

    Kids and kids-at-heart may get a thrill out of seeing dinosaurs kinda-sorta duke it out in 3D, but the game itself fails to offer much beyond its really simple structure and fight mechanics, both of which get old just a little too quick.

    Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs 3D looks like a rushed product which does not even tale advantage of features such as the touch screen. The idea of a war between dinosaurs is neat but the developer had to work harder on the overall gameplay.

    Tyranna-bore-us Rex. Triceraplops.Velocicraptor. You get the picture.

    Combat of Giants : Dinosaurs 3D is all its title immediately suggests : a shoddy game. Even though it's quite likeable thanks to the dinosaurs-in-3D appeal, in termes of gameplay, we're drowning in the primitive soup of gameplay mechanics from which the video games emerged. It's so basic that if you may have fun the 5 first minutes, there's no way it might last beyond that.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Out of the battle of giants series, this is the best. The 3D is one of the best out all current 3DS titles, and really brings out the enviornment and dinosaurs during gameplay, even the title screen is beautiful! The game does fall short in a few things though. It is very repetitive and once the player has trained all 4 of his dinosaurs to fight the final boss, then things get boring, even though there are fun cards to collect, which teach the player things they may have never knew about the jurassic giants, once all are colected, there is nothing more to do than beat the game multiple times again with the games many other dinosaurs. Customizing isnt as fun as it is in the Wii version, but there are skeletal designs that only one dinosaur had in the Wii version, so there is diversity between some, but roars are all the same for all dinosaurs of one class. The sounds are pretty good and the dinosaur footsteps are easily heard. The enviornments in this game are a sight to see and are awesome in 3D. Overall the game is easy and can be beaten in at least a day and a half but is fun to play, but the game will bore younger kids after about a week and parents should wait until the price drops from $40 at least $20 bucks, which already happened at Target.… Expand

The damage that your Dinosaurs do almost seems random atThe game gets repetitive real fast with enemies and strategies that blend together. The damage that your Dinosaurs do almost seems random at times sometimes doing more or less despite having the same equipment on. The battles can also feel tedious when enemies take so little damage especially from charger Dinos.

    I really can’t see the main target demographic (That being kids) having the patience to actually play through the game.    … Expand
