Thunderbolt: Dinosaur King Review

Thunderbolt writes: "Repetition’s a killer, especially when you’re repeating something that was never that brilliant in the first place. Just ask Assassin’s Creed; its visuals and character control were near perfect yet the gameplay suffered because of how repetitive things became. Unfortunately, Dinosaur King comes across the same amount of problems and more, which stop it from being a worthy title for anyone other than dinosaur enthusiasts, or fans of the popular ‘Dinosaur King’ card game and TV show."

Pros

* Great range of locations

* Fossil hunting is an enjoyable lark

* 3D graphics are impressive

Cons

* Combat system is incredibly frustrating and unnecessary

* Central gameplay is extremely repetitive and simple

* 2D graphics are merely average

* Game doesn’t bring much at all to the table, and is quite outdated
