The Dragon Ball fan in me loves the fact that I can fuse Frieza with Cooler, and Arale with Android 18. The RPG fan in me loves the interesting combat and addictive nature of collecting every character and super move. If you fall into either of those categories, then I have no reservations about recommending this. Dragon Ball Fusions is really nice game: despite being a little repetitive, rather slow-paced and overall simple, it has a deep combat system that blends seamlessly strategy and sheer chaos, making it a truly fun experience. Perfect if you're a fan of the series, or if you want some strategy in your gaming sessions. The best part on Dragon Ball Fusions is the interesting combat system that uses the turn based strategy and the distribution of the characters of the teams on the arena. The different experiments with fusions and recruiting hundreds of characters will be enjoyable for the fans the series, the rest of the game could be repetitive after some hours. It takes some risks and offers a complete compendium of characters from each installment of the anime. It also puts an emphasis on creativity with the fusion system, but lacks focus. Clearly a game made for dbz and rpg fans, it's the best dbz game in the 3ds, the turn based combat will probably turn alot of people off but Clearly a game made for dbz and rpg fans, it's the best dbz game in the 3ds, the turn based combat will probably turn alot of people off but it's pretty entertaining for what it is, there's plenty of abilities and characters from the show, but clearly the main point is fusions, who doesn't want to see how the fusion between krilin and goku could look like, if you like dbz and rpgs games give it a try, … All Dragon Ball eras in one game, this is more than just fusions, this game travel with all the characters from Dragon Ball to the new Dragon All Dragon Ball eras in one game, this is more than just fusions, this game travel with all the characters from Dragon Ball to the new Dragon Ball Super, is just the RPG game this franchise need, hope for a sequel. When I first saw it I thought it looked interesting but never imagined I'd have so much I just finished this game and It really impressed me. When I first saw it I thought it looked interesting but never imagined I'd have so much fun playing it. I'll start with the pros. The combat system works really well. I'm a long time fan of turn based combat and found the addition of interactive elements and player placement helped keep things fast paced. The art style is excellent, it looks great for a 3ds game. The level design was great. The game is divided into 7 stages and i found myself eager to unlock them just so I could see which iconic area was next. The fusions system works well and its quite fun to see what you can create. I never needed to grind so the game never dragged for me. There are a lot of sidequests. Most of them are typical fetch quests, pointless flying through ring games or just more fighting but it is a lot of fun finding your favorite characters around each map and talking to them. There's a huge amount of fan service. Characters from dragonball, dragonball z, gt and super along with the movies. The story is new and doesn't rely on reusing scenes from the anime like a lot of dragonball games. It's not amazing but I liked it and the final fights were pretty cool. The fights can be quite long, although as the game doesn't require much grinding this didn't bother me. A lot of reviewers complained that the attack animations are lengthy but I really enjoyed them with the exception of ring outs. When your character is knocked out of the ring you see the same animation of them flying through a mountain. It gets old and afterwards you have to reposition them on the map so this can slow the pace of combat. Recruiting characters can be annoying. You have to build up an attack meter and then launch a special move but it can be blocked. Also later in the game it's a challenge to build your attack meter without knocking everyone out first. You need to collect energy to progress to the next stage. This could be a little annoying but it didn't take too much time. Overall this is a really impressive game. I bought xenoverse at the same time but found fusions much more addictive. You can unlock characters by finishing missions or by opening time rifts and using a zenkai attack a special move of sort. You can also unlock cac by using a zenkai attack on them. Once you have two comptable fighters you can fuse them to create one stronger fighter who can use the fighters who fused moves. You can also fuse your cac with any fighter in the game. The fusion is one of funnest parts of the game as its a dragon ball fans dream the best bit though the game doesn't rely on this mechanic and instead is a fun game with a good story … This is probably the best Dragon Ball game I played since Budokai 3. The battle mechanics are surprisingly deep with character placement and This is probably the best Dragon Ball game I played since Budokai 3. The battle mechanics are surprisingly deep with character placement and attacks pushing characters around the arena. Very funny writing keeping with the tone of the first DB series. A lot, lot of content, big number of side quests and many characters to collect and fuse. If we ever get a sequel, I'd love to see that fixed. What could have been a fun little romp in the Dragon Ball universe ends up sucking eggs due to a stupid combat system, lack luster controls and a dull story line. If you must get this game, get it on discount or used.
