Spectrobes DS

Spectrobes includes a unique code input card system, local wireless gameplay, Nintendo Wi-Fi downloadable content and a compatible online community. For the first time on the Nintendo DS, players can use collectible trading cards to unlock additional content within the game using the touch screen. In addition, players can download content via a Wi-Fi connection; play together locally using a wireless connection; and take advantage of online community features to extend the Spectrobes experience beyond the game. The game features two junior Planetary Patrol officers named Rallen and Jeena who must save the galaxy by awakening, training and collecting prehistoric creatures called Spectrobes. These creatures hold the key to defeating merciless enemies known as the Krawl. Spectrobes fully utilizes aspects of the Nintendo DS, such as its revolutionary touch screen and microphone, through creative gameplay that includes excavating and awakening dormant creatures with the stylus and voice commands.

Once players unlock the special ability in the game, they can fit a code input card over the Nintendo DS touch screen and use the stylus to consecutively tap numerical holes in the cards, unlocking new content, which includes creatures and minerals.

Players can also earn the ability to download content such as videos, creatures, custom parts and minerals through a Wi-Fi connection.
