Papa Panda Review:
Pokémon Quest is a free-to-play role-playing game available for download on iOS and Android devices, as well as the Nintendo Switch. Players build a small base camp and recruit various Pokémon to send out on expeditions, exploring different areas of an island. Pokémon fight each other using a variety of special abilities, including blowing fire, throwing rocks, and poisoning each other. Violence is presented in a cartoonish way and does no permanent damage to the Pokémon, instead of knocking them out temporarily. While the game is free to play, there are a number of different ways in which players can spend real-world money to get special items, exclusive Pokémon, and so on, though none are required to advance in the game. That's the cool part.

Now, to progress in Pokémon Quest, you need to follow a relatively straightforward pattern: cook, recruit, equip, explore. Wash, rinse, and then repeat. Each step relies heavily on the one before. You need to cook the food to recruit the Pokémon, then make sure they're trained and well-equipped with power stones, or they can't make it through the expeditions. And you need to complete expeditions to earn more ingredients and stones. It's not a very deep process, just a repetitive one. One odd twist to the formula is that the combat is the simplest part of the game ... mainly because you don't really need to do anything. Your Pokémon team moves and attacks on its own, with very little interaction. You're only responsible for activating Pokémon abilities, and if you click the Auto button, you don't even need to do that. By contrast, mixing up new recipes and training Pokémon are much more complex user-involved processes.

While entertaining enough to provide an occasional distraction, Pokémon Quest is ultimately a jack-of-all-trades, but a (Pokémon) master of none.

3 out of 5 Pandas.
