I purchased this software for my 11 year old son. He loved it! He learned while he was playing, and would ask me if I knew certain "fossil facts". Highly recommend to parents looking to educate as well as entertain their children.

I was pretty excited when I finally got Dinosaur King for DS. I mean, I like dinosaurs, and I like pokemon, so all I had to do was hope that it wouldn't be one of the dozens of games that tried to copy off pokemon.
Breaking News: It wasn't!
This is a fantastic, original game. Apparantley based on a T.V. show, the story line is excellent ( although a little confusing at first, if you're new to it ). And its sound is very good; I get the urge to hum the background battle music to myself sometime!
But, though the easy-to-use gameplay, music, and story line are good, the graphics take the cake. The dinosaurs are finely detailed, right down to the number of fingers and protrusions on some of their noses. The dinosaurs walk and attack realistically, and the attacks are awesome!
Let me explain: You know how in pokemon its just two-dimensional pixelated creatures moving slightly around and shooting stuff ( No offense to the Pokemon seies; I'm a big fan ). Well, in Dinosaur King, the dinosaurs get right up to each other and use awesome-looking melee attacks. I can watch my dinos fighting again and again but it looks so cool that it never gets old because its 3-dimensional and incredibaly detailed for a DS game.
I hope this review was useful and have fun with the game!

This is a really fun game in which you get to pick a "starter" dinosaur. Then you have to fight and beat a T-Rex and you uncover fossils. The fossils turn into dinosaurs and those dinosaurs grow more powerful. Then the dinos must save the world from bad guys who try to take over with other dinosaurs. You and dinosaurs travel to each of the continents to prevent the bad guys from taking over.
You find fossils using a drill that you can upgrade thus enabling you to dig deeper for more fossils. Sometimes you find other things too, like ancient underwear.
My 8.5YO says this is a really fun game and highly recommends it.

This game is awesome for Dinosaur lovers. A great selection of dinosaurs and unlockable moves, just like the hit TV show. You dig for fossils and artifacts and challenges wait around every corner. I'm 17 and this game is still a little challenging for me, which proves it is for any age. This game is a must have for dino lovers
