    Invizimals: Shadow Zone is the sequel to the first Invizimals game released last year, a game which didn't set the world on fire nearly as much as rival Nintendo's mega-franchise Pokemon . Which is understandable, as the juggernaut that is Pokemon is an exceedingly difficult act to follow or topple. Read more
