I liked the game, my only problem is that I can't play it due to the flashing parts. But I def would recommend to friends, just wish I could toggle off the flashing bits.

This legally-distinct collectible monster game was made for Pokémon fans, by Pokémon fans. It stands on its own: what doesn't work in Pokémon has been discarded, and enough originality was added to replace it (and more) that I don't really consider this a Pokémon clone. Imagine if Pokémon got a Terraria + Stardew Valley treatment. To top it off, the developers keep releasing free updates for everyone, which grants this game a spot in the top echelon of indie darlings.

I like it, my favourite thing about it is how it takes you off guard with the boss fights and how there are complex interactions with different elemental typings and how much room there is for creative strategies The environments, the beast desgins and the world and lore are all super cool and I like them a lot too! I started to get very bored of the game by the end though, difficulty being completely gone and just going through the motions. After not playing for a while and returning back to it I found I had no interest in going on playing any more. The characters are cute and endearing but they just don't go deep enough for me to really be invested in the story enough to want to go on either Main problem with this game is a problem I have with leveling systems in general. You're doomed to always be overleveled by the end if you do any amount of side quests. I just don't like stat-increasing leveling systems outside of roguelikes because of this. 7/10 Nothing really wrong about it, a lot of interesting stuff but goes on too long for it's own good and becomes uninteresting to me

Bought it for me and the wife. We enjoy it she loves collecting all the beasts. To answer the question most people have i assume. The co-op is mainly only for raids. Otherwise the co-op is just walking around together on the same map doing things on your own. We found fun in this because there were a few times my wife would find a beast/bootleg I wanted and she would see something on my stream that she liked so we would just trade. I do wish there was a co-op career mode or something of that nature but still 8/10 game to hang out with friends/partners and collect beasts.

On one hand, this is really good. The art is great, fusion is a perfect mechanic, I love the music, I love the writing, and it outperforms Pokémon all the time (I say this as someone with a lifelong obsession with Pokémon). Hence so many stars. On the other... it has problems. Mostly quality of life problems that should have been solved during user testing. And they're not that big a deal if you're playing the game once, only a few will come up, especially if you don't do the postgame. But if you love the game, and really want to engage properly, and get 100% achievements, they discourage that which is sad. It honestly feels like the game is fighting you sometimes... 1. Menuing: No easy way to see which types of beast learn which stickers. When adding stickers to tapes, your position in the list of stickers is randomized after clicking, which is disorienting and makes rescoping your beasts really tedious and difficult. Also, sorting only applies at the time of sorting. So if you sort alphabetically, and then get another sticker, that will be put at the bottom of the list instead of alphabetically, unless you click sort again /every time you unequip a sticker/. This is a huge problem because you always want to be rescoping your beasts and this means you're scrolling for so long to do this basic aspect of gameplay! It discourages builds and making cool beasts which is really sad. 2. Saving: If you reset to use a ritual candle, a priceless item you would be a fool not to savescum (see currency balance and cruel and unusual achievements section below), they make you wait 4 real world minutes before anything spawns again. This is vindictive, especially when considering the achievements list. Once you've bought a game, you should be able to "cheat" if you want. You paid for it. 3. Currency balance: Fused material is immensely scarce and valuable, to a mean and stingy extent. For example, you only get 75 fused material for 100%ing EVERY CASETTE BEAST TYPE IN THE GAME. That's 1.5 ritual candles, for doing something many could consider definitively "completing" the game. After spending 0 fused material for the entire game (which involved never upgrading my character) I had 100 after completing the main game. So, 2 candles. And after that they dry up. For doing long "raid boss" equivalents you get... 1. So that's how you farm it. 1 by 1. Meanwhile all other currencies like wood accumulate in massive quantities you couldn't spend even if you tried, with no way to convert them to the only useful currency. To make this even worse, the same currency you need for these candles (which are obligatory to 100%) is the one used to upgrade your character. So if you want to 100% achievements, something only possible with several candles, you can't upgrade your character once or you're wasting resources that will literally take hours to grind to get back. 4. Physics: Physics in this game is nasty. You get caught on corners, the obligatory platforming segments (especially the one with Alice) are very frustrating, where endlessly respawning enemies keep knocking you off platforms... doesn't help that stamina is lower than I would like, even in the postgame. Honestly, this is probably Godot's fault, but it goes to show that the engine has limitations. Also, your partner who follows you everywhere haws a hitbox, so you keep bashing into them and they keep knocking cubes off buttons which is very frustrating. 5. Text speed: Text speed is slow, and there are strange pauses in loading text when characters are talking (within the same text box onscreen) that make it unclear when the text is going to end. I couldn't press to skip, because I kept accidentally pressing through dialogue options because the load speeds were so irregular and sometimes characters would say short things. I would like text speed options. Again, a minor complaint, but it would be nice... 6. Cruel and unusual achievements: See section 2 and 3 for why these are cruel and unusual, but honestly what a nasty grinding postgame to get 100%. Literally hours of grinding to get 1 of the item that gives you a chance, and if you use it, what do you get? Possibly not the thing you need, unless you save scum. But the game tries to thwart that at any turn. I can't imagine authentically getting an astral traffikrab (hyperspecific achievement) without savescumming, but even with that the game is fighting you and giving you "time out" wait periods between resets like you are a misbehaving child. tl;dr: good game, but some fixable flaws make it frustrating at times, and the nastiest endgame grind I've ever encountered
