You can evolve your Spectrobe by placing it in the ship’s incubator. Both of these forms are suited for battle against the Krawl. The last two forms are Adult and Evolved Form. The Child Form is the only form of the three that is capable of searching for items buried in the earth. These Spectrobes are not really useful in battle, but they make excellent searchers. The first is the Child form, and is the form seen when a fossil is awakened. The creatures called Spectrobes are a lot like Pokémon. Since there is a lack of a tutorial system in Spectrobes, you’re pretty much on your own. Okay maybe it’s not that bad, but I guarantee you’ll have the read the 62 page instruction booklet to navigate through the world of Spectrobes. There are so many menus to go through that is borders on madness. You can also hold up to 99 fossils and 65 minerals to use later on.īut that is where the simple part of Spectrobe ends. The Prizmod can hold up to 6 Spectrobes at any given time and 1 search Spectrobe. The Prizmod is basically your inventory/storage device. Pressing the X Button brings up the Prizmod Screen. Pressing the L Button will open up a screen showing the status of Rallen and your equipped Spectrobes. This can be accomplished by either pressing down on the Spectrobe with your stylus or by holding down the R Button. You have a Child Spectrobe with you at all times so you can scan the area around the Spectrobe to see if any goodies are buried under the surface. This is highly useful if you are trying to get to a certain location and you want to avoid the Krawl. When you are moving around the various planets in Rallen’s galaxy, you are presented with a greater viewing area around your character than other games.
#Spectrobes cards full#
Spectrobes takes full advantage of the DS’s Dual Screens and it shows. Before I begin, I have to say that Spectrobes is much like Digimon, as you have to raise and train Spectrobes to help you defeat the Krawl. You will spend most of your time excavating spectrobe fossils, cubes, minerals and fighting any Krawl that get in your way. By main interface I mean the world that you move around in with Rallen. The main interface of Spectrobes is pretty simple. Rallen with the help of his partner Jeena and Aldous must now fight to keep their galaxy safe.

What makes matter worse is that the Krawl have started showing up in Rallen’s galaxy. Once awake the man known as Aldous tells of an evil species known as the Krawl and how they destroyed his home world. Rallen responds and finds a man in a cryogenic escape pod. You play as Rallen, a young, ambitious Planetary Patrol Officer, who receives a distress call while on a routine mission.


This time you are getting all the cards available to the game. When Spectrobes first came out you were given 4 cards and that was it. What really makes the difference is the 38 input cards that are offered this time around. Both units have the same gameplay so nothing new was added there. So you’re probably wondering why Disney is re-releasing Spectrobes when its sequel will be released sometime next year. Now here it is eight months later and we are presented with Spectrobes: Collector’s Edition for the Nintendo DS.
