DS #2828: Prey The Stars (USA)

I'm kind of surprised at the positive response this game is receiving from some reviewers. I tried the European (I think it was) version, and it was kind of like Hungry, Hungry Hippo. It seemed pretty repetitive to me. I don't know, maybe I need to give it more time. The good reviews make me want to go back and give it another shot.

Eat, eat and eat. That's eat and all. Lol.

How is this game "crap"?

That box really reminds me of Street Sharks. I have no idea why, it just does.

So you're saying this actually isn't bad? Wow...dare I say I might give this a shot...

Maybe, because they look like sharks.. :|

D: I got bored real quick with the Japanese version... and I don't think knowing the story will change that. I was looking forward to it too

How is this game "crap"?

Because it's not "fun."

I liked it. It wasn't just eating anymore than Smash Bros is just punching. There's tons of little things that affect gameplay.

You have three ways of eating depending on if it's a regular object, has an element or has spirits. You can only eat certain objects depending on your size and you can use powers ups and special abilities gained from eating the same thing three times to knock other players off the stage among other things.

There's also skins that increase attributes and you can attempt to even get better versions of those same skins like in RPGs. I even played a Wifi battle and won which gave me even better skin stats than I got in single player. I'm only up to the fourth stage where you can eat moving vehicles and planes.
