The mobile version of Pokemon Quest has finally been released, a Pokemon -themed RPG game that was initially released on Nintendo Switch and now also available on Android and iPhone .
I say finally because up to now Pokemon fans could only play them with unofficial games or with Pokemon Go, which due to its peculiarity based on augmented reality, still remains challenging for those who would like to play on the phone while sitting on the sofa.
Pokemon Quest is instead a mission game, where you have to explore the island where it is set, add Pokemon to the team, make the base camp more beautiful and catch other wild Pokemon.
Pokemon Quest ca tapulta on Tumblecube Island, inhabited exclusively by the original Kanto 151 Pokemon, including Mew and Mewtwo.
You start by choosing a pokemon from Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, Pikachu or Eevee.

To collect other Pokemon you have to cook dishes to eat that attract special animals, designed with cubic graphics, in your field.
These can then be assembled into teams of three and sent to explore the different areas of the cubed island.
With no other human beings in sight, there is really no story, because Pokemon Quest is more a game of exploration and collection, free and without a particular purpose.
With a cubic Minecraft-style graphic and colorful scenery, the Pokemon game is quite different from the anime style of the Japanese series and it may take some getting used to.
The new visual style is however well done, with all the elements, including those of the user interface, it is a square, a rectangle or a cube.
some of the cubic landscapes are destructible, breaking into small cubes when hit by an attack.
Pokemon are also fascinating, each as its own unique icon and some really interesting designs.
The interface is clean and modern, with smooth transitions between each screen.
The main activity of Pokemon Quest is the expeditions, which last only a few minutes.
In each expedition, a team of three Pokemon moves on a completely 3D scenario, fighting waves of wild Pokemon and bosses, checking the specific skills of each of our pets.
The resistance charge limits the number of shipments that can be covered, with a recovery every 30 minutes.
As in any mobile game today, you can pay to recharge your energy.
The prizes for the first quests give full refills and the game provides free daily tickets to play until the energy needs to be recharged.
Spending money obviously speeds things up, buying tickets with micropayments.
Although the full game is available for free, those who have less patience can go on fluidly and without too many expectations by spending something, especially to attract new Pokemon more quickly.
In addition to expeditions, you need to spend time collecting and equipping energy stones for Pokemon .
Collecting powerful stones is more important than collecting Pokemon, since most of a Pokemon's strength comes from the equipment of stones.
Cooking is another activity to do in the game, putting together a combination of the 10 available ingredients found in the expeditions, in order to attract new Pokémon to the base camp.
Top tier pots consume more ingredients to attract top tier Pokemon.
Depending on the recipe, several Pokemon will attract.
Higher-level Pokemon, like legendary Pokemon, have slightly higher base stats and, most importantly, more energy stone slots.
All Pokemon start as basic forms and evolve by leveling up.
This system allows you to collect all 151 Pokemon without trading.
In conclusion, Pokemon Quest is a very refined game graphically and with a gameplay that makes you want to continue playing a little every day, suitable both for fans of the pokemon, who, however, will have to get used to the cubic design, and also to who does not have this particular passion but wants a free game of construction, growth and light competition.
The free game holds up well without angering those who don't want to pay.
Pokemon Quest can be downloaded free for Android and iPhone from their respective stores.
