The game that made people go outside. A neat little Pokemon game that makes you go places. I played it for a while, and then fell away, mostly due to data usage. The support with Pokemon home to send those shiny Pokemon to the main games was a welcome addition. Good game, but not enough to keep my attention on it for long.
This is the game that got me to remember that I actually enjoy going outside. Fond memories of pushing my son around town in his stroller while playing during the year it was released.
Silly Pokémon gacha game that still holds some value today. Hit its peak at launch and there wasn’t a more peaceful day since. The game has gotten money hungry over the years taking away more and more and it just sucks. Perk is all mons are transferable to Pokémon games through Pokémon home
I have not played this like I used too and probably should get back into it.
Go for walks and collect pokeballs from points of interest on a geo map and find pokemon as you go. It’s pretty simple to do. Throwing pokeballs can be a pain sometimes with the flick of a finger but it works out ok. Catch what you can and upgrade your pokemon so you can challenge other peoples pokemons at various gyms around your area. Promotes having fun playing a game while being active at the same time.
Been playing since day 1, always fun to see what Pokemon I can catch no matter when I decide to play the game. Only real complaint is the slight reversal of changes that Niantic implemented due to COVID restrictions and just the fact that buying coins is kind of expensive. I don't really go out of my way too much to take down gyms, and when I do, I don't get the max coins from it since they get beaten pretty quick. It's always fun to play on Miami University's campus though, especially since my dorm this year is on top of two gyms I can challenge consistently!
I played this daily for probably 5 years after launch. The first summer it came out was magical, seeing everyone out and about playing. Later when raids came out I made new friends doing raids at lunch time. The core collectathon mechanic is addictive as always. Lots of great updates have come over the years. I only give it 4 stars because it is still a simple mobile game, but it's one of the best. I've been playing a lot less lately but still open it up on my phone here and there.
I like this game and it will hold my attention for a few months and then not again for a few years. It is effective at it's mission of getting me to walk more. It is fun, and not too challenging. For serious gamers, holding gyms or teaming up for big battles sounds fun, but I was only a collector or pokemon I saw on my walks.
Pokémon Go has provided some of the best memories I have had with my friends but it fell off for me after generation 3 came out. Promotions still bring me back to it at least once a year and all the memories flood back. It also is a great way to be active while gaming which gaming struggles with overall.
Despite peaking in popularity in 2016, this mobile game was nothing close to what it is today. Through the addition of weekly community events, 9 generations of pokemon, legendary and mega raids, worldwide ranked PVP, and much more, this game has become its own and is still only getting better. It still has bug issues and Niantic is taking its time implementing all aspects of the pokemon games into one, I can't wait to see what the future holds for this game and hope to see it's large core of players grow more.
This isn't a bad game but there is just so much potential for it to be amazing. The problem is updates don't do much in the ways of improving the actual game play. Also it can be difficult if you aren't located by a gym or pokestop to get pokeballs/items/ect. Maybe one day it will play more like an actual pokemon game but until then...2 stars.
Just started play this, I see the draw and how it gets kids active. Item management pisses me off, my backpack fills up to fast without warning. Also if you are new the gyms and wild Pokémon can be way too OP for you to attempt
Growing up on the OG Pokemon GameBoy games, this felt gimmicky to me. But I know people spent/spend a lot of time on it. You can spot them in the wild pretty easily.
I haven't touched a Pokemon game in a long time. This was a pretty cool and fun concept. It has it moments where I play on and off for a few weeks and then I don't touch it for months.
Played since launch and I still love it. The game is perfect for anyone trying to get active or for those who travel, but is still accessable by those who just want to stay home and chill. I'd very much so say the game is causal friendly and the community has always been amazing. There are even community events held in real world places and specific days for people to get out and GO!
The only issues I'd note are the occasional lag spikes for community events, that it can be hard to get items if you live in the middle of nowhere, and that you will find yourself lost sometimes because you decided to go after a snorlax that was just around that corner but you never found it so you got lost in an entirely different place and you still don't have a snorlax.
This game is a lot of fun and I put a lot of time into it. This game also has a special spot in my heart. It was also a great tool I used as a Program Coordinator for adults with disabilities. It encouraged our clients to meet new people, make friends, and to just go out into our community. Also getting a lot of walking in was a huge plus. It just goes to show that video games have so many different ways to connect and help people.
The month after Pokemon Go came out was the closest to world peace I have experienced in my lifetime. People were at parks, talking to each other, helping each other out. Kids and parents were sharing games together, learning about Pokemon. My mom and I walked around downtown attacking gyms, and meeting other people who were doing the same. It wore off, but I still think this game presents a beautiful opportunity to bring people together, even if it's on a more small-scale now. I stopped playing because my friends stopped, but I think it still presents the same great opportunity for people who want to get into it together, be they friends, parents and kids, or strangers.
I'll still occasionally log in and catch a few Pokemon with my son. It'll never stop being fun, but I definitely don't play it as often as I did when it first came out.
Early on, this was amazing! Many nights at 3am catching Pokémon. My biggest problem was how they changed training, battling, and catching Pokémon. Those were three of my favorite components of Pokémon games.
It had its moment, but this ended up being another Pokemon adventure that I was not very in to. The original game that this was skinned over seemed more fun.
Still fun occasionally with the kiddos. Starts out great, then fades quickly as you try to get into raids and such. In the beginning it wasn’t hard to find people to play with, now it seems rare that anyone actually logs in.
