Planet Crashers Review | Trendy Gamers

Planet Crashers really wasn’t on my gaming radar at all this year, until I learned that Renegade Kid was the team behind it. They’ve been mainstays on the 3DS eShop and have made great titles such as Mutant Mudds and Bomb Monkey. With Planet Crashers, it is their foray into the RPG genre by having a young cadet go off on a mission to save the sun from being extinguished by travelling from planet to planet, levelling up to get strong enough to save the universe. Sadly, it doesn’t nearly live up to the high quality of games we’ve come to expect from Renegade Kid.

It was such a shame the game turned out how it did, not so much for the way the game is designed, but for the fact that the 3DS version doesn't have the GPS feature promised in the Smartphone version. It would have made the game really dynamic and unique, but instead, it kind of turned into standard fare for me.

How much is the mobile version?

Argus94297d ago

You know, it's hard to say. The main web site doesn't say anything yet, but you can find snippets of information around the net. Unfortunately, a price point wasn't one of them.

TrendyGamers4297d ago

I wouldnt be surprised if it ends up around $2-$3.

Venoxn4g4297d ago

actually there are better reviews for this game, around 7 - 8,5 so game is worth a try

Argus94296d ago

Venox, it's not as simple as looking at the numbers. If you want some real insight into why we rated the game the way we did, you should actually read the review and see the points we made. Everyone's tastes are different, and if you enjoy the stuff that, say, I didn't, you may find the game more enjoyable.

If it was as simple as throwing a number on a game, we wouldn't write 1200+ words in the review.

Well said, Argus9. One of the best responses I've seen.

Certainly, you're welcome to your opinion of a game, but 5/10 doesn't get handed out without evidence to back up the claim. If a game is being given ratings ranging from 5/10 to 8/10, it's definitely worth your time to read the reviews and decide for yourself whether or not the game is right for you.

Mariye4293d ago

Yeah, and if you read those reviews it sounds like the writers spent only an hour or two with the game.

Planet Crashers is excruciating. I'm not exaggerating when I say the game offered me the same fetch quest four times on the first planet (Lushie Green).

Battles also aren't worth it unless you're fighting to complete a quest. They give you barely any experience points.

Planet Crashers Review - Realm of Gaming

Joe Shaffer states, "It's a cheerless, lackluster member of its fairly saturated genre. As such, you shouldn't have any trouble finding a dungeon crawler or a turn-based RPG superior to this one."

ONM - Planet Crashers review

ONM - Planet Crashers wasted our time, so we're going to waste its time. You see, when you turn on this overpriced heap of a 3DS eShop game, it doesn't bother telling you how to play.

Review – Planet Crashers (3DS) | NintendoFuse

NintendoFuse:

When you first think about it, who would not want a portable whimsical 3D RPG from Renegade Kid, the same developer who brought us Mutant Mudds? It sounds like a winning combination, but when you really get down to it, does it hold up or crash itself?
