Coromon

I just finished the main game and let me just say that the creativity and passion was there from the beginning until the end. This game had so much life and energy poured into it. From what I know Coromon was made by a small indie dev team and they did fantastic. The story and the characters made this game so fun to progress through, plus you can customize exactly what kind of adventure you want yours to be with different rules and difficultly levels. I loved all the different Coromon and regions there were to explore and how important each one was to the story. It was just so expansive and you can tell a lot of work went into it. It really reminds of what spirit Pokémon used to have before they became a bit too money hungry. In fact I have enjoyed this game way more more than I enjoyed Pokemon in the recent years. The fact that they did a story revamp to this game a while ago makes this even better. I would have paid way more for this game than I did because it’s totally worth it. I don’t know what the devs are up to but I hope they are doing well and maybe have a new project. Either way this game was absolutely amazing and you should definitely buy past the demo! Absolutely 5 stars, would give more if there was an option.

Never heard of this game until recently, when I was a teenager I would play Pokémon on my gameboy color, then when I was older I played them on the DS, now the switch. Don’t get me wrong Pokémon holds a special place in my heart, but every game they release the quality seems to dip and they never expand on anything. Then I find this game, played for about 10 minutes and decided to buy it. This is exactly what I’m looking for, beautiful animations, great customization, great looking creatures with evolutions and “shiny” variations much like Pokémon. 10/10 game, would recommend to anyone who was in a similar boat as I was. Great Job Devs! Update: spent around 20 hours in the game now, some minor issues but none ruin the experience. There are some in app purchases but the premium “gem” currency is earnable through regular gameplay, and are only used for cosmetics for your character, and coromon. The only thing you have to “buy” besides the game is the premium tools, like storage management anywhere and unlimited fast travels, those are only earned by purchasing through money for a grand total of $5, so all in all won’t break the bank, thought I would write about it though. Game is very much worth your money and time.

A more condensed version of those games I grew up playing, but from the start you can adjust dozens of features to really make the game suit your play style—make bosses and trainers easier or harder to beat, adjust the levels of wild coromon, enable auto-healing when a coromon grows in level, etc. You can make changes at any time in the train station (the second location in the game). I saw a comment about parts of the game post-purchase being stressful, and I would like to address that issue: I have a severe anxiety disorder and that comment almost kept me from proceeding, but I’m glad I did. You’ll occasionally find yourself rapidly jumping across crumbling platforms or dodging moving objects/npcs you can’t touch, and while I did find that a little anxiety inducing, I was able to relax by reminding myself there’s no consequence if you fail those tests. You can keep respawning and trying again without losing items or coins like you do in many games. When customizing your game, you can choose to make the game much more challenging by making all coromon leave your party upon fainting in battle, but NOTHING happens if you miss a jump. Breathe. If you enable all the easy settings and make all your battles low level, you’ll find your favorite farming game more stressful.
