To close off, Planet Crashers presents it self as a humorous and light RPG title. The game does well in presenting itself as a funny and cute-style game, with simple and cheerful music, funny graphics and bursting with life personalities. The game makes good use of the 3DS' 3D graphics, which really plays well with the rotating globe style planets in the game. However, will it does well in the presentation department, the core mechanics is what wreck the game. The battle system lacks some much-welcomed mechanics, the quest system, while fun, is flawed and so is the dungeon. It is these flaws which will drive away many intermediate and adept RPG players. On the other hand, casual players may consider this as a cheaper, pick up and play RPG if they're don't feel like investing in better options such as Tales of the Abyss and very soon, Kingdom Hearts 3D. Although, at the current price, you may be getting a better value with one of those.
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 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.
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?
