Ratings and reviews

As immersive as you allow it to be. The framework of the game is very outdated, but it gets the job done. Still a lot to be desired (better achievement system would be a great start), but I'm afraid a new game would have to be created to get a much better experience. Addictive, gets you out, gets you walking/running, and there are people playing it almost everywhere if you want to socialize. Amazing game.

Still a really fun (and addicting) game with more to do than ever. We all know what this game is at this point, so I'm not going to go into all the stuff you can do. However, I'm taking a star off for two reasons. One, after all this time, they still never solved the issue of the game never reconnecting if you lose your connection in the middle of catching a pokémon. And two, some features aren't well explained and involve far too much messing around to try to figure them out.

Events are out of control now. They all last way too long because they all use a tedious battle pass model with bland rewards that you have to work too hard for. What happened to Timed Research that I could complete in a couple of days? Or events that lasted for a couple of days for that matter? Stop trying to force me to play like the hardcore players and let me do my own thing! Don't hold event rewards at ransom! Apparently my location data isn't enough!
