Pokemon Rumble World

This game is really fun. You control a toy Pokemon running around and beating other Pokemon. This game might be free to play but it really stops taking your money after you buy 3,000 jewels which is about $40 and gives you items that make it more like a full game you bought.

Nintendo has slowly been introducing Free to Play games for a while now. And the first two being this and Pokemon: Shuffle. Now while I could go into detail about Pokemon: Shuffle, I am providing a review of this game and countering any hateful reviews beforehand. Now, Those upon going into the e-shop will see the words "Free-to-start" As iwata has already stated that he hates the term, "Free-to-play" This will come into play later and explain how nintendo has done micro-transactions right. You start out fine, Playing with a pikachu as part of a tutorial and the story is rather simple yet cute. The game features air balloons, that allow you to go to different worlds seperated by three-four lands. Each land features a total of 16 pokemon. You rely on a roulette system to make your choice, although alternatively you can still get the land you want if you know how you do it as the roation goes one way and the lands goes the other. Upon completing the level, The balloon must refill. In the meanwhile, you can complete challenges to gain more pokediamonds to unlock more balloons or clothing. There is a ranking system that increases by one for every pokemon you capture that is different, So if you catch a pidgey, You get one exp, Catch it again, It won't happen. But getting another pokemon that's different gets another exp. Every rank unlocks more features. There is also a password feature, allowing for furture special pokemon. Currently there are two, Smeargle and Pancham which give "Gift" traits identified by blue text. I won't spoil what they do, that's for you to find out. The biggest enjoyment is the collection. As you slowly fill up you collection, You have a limit but can purchase more and the amount and the cost is fair. Starting out by 2 gems and then 4 by then you would have around 340 and it's noticed. If you send off any unwanted pokemon, don't feel bad, they leave a gift behind of ten coinds each which helps get trees which act as passive abilites. Now, As I mentioned before, The game is free to start but there is a pay out option. When you purchase the 3000 gem pack, which is about 30 or dollars, you have infinite gems. You receive 20 gems per day to save up for future events or retries or anything. That's what anyone else will not tell you. You can purchase yourself out of the free to play model. Still have fun and really that's all to it.
