For what it offers, "Invizimals: The Alliance" may provide enough entertainment for the younger audience, but with other similar games like "Pokémon" or "Skylanders" on sell today, it's doesn't do enough to make itself a top recommendation.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "There are examples out there of games being developed for Vita that truly make the most of its inputs, coming up with unique ways of interacting with the hardware to make for a memorable gaming experience. It’s these titles I’m looking at in this article – what they are and how they worked on Vita, both in terms of what they did right and what they could have done better."

Released to tie in with the PlayStation 3’s Invizimals: The Lost Kingdom, and an upcoming Invizimals television show and toy line, The Alliance is a return to the series’ portable roots. While comparison’s between Invizimals and Pokemon have always been easy and justifiable to make, Sony’s version of battling monsters has typically been based upon AR technology, and for better and worse, this latest entry takes this idea further.
