As a huge fan of the original, a childhood favorite...
This game is A MUST PLAY!! I''e already put six hours in and have mostly just been playing the first island over and over again because I'm having such a blast finding out all the special interactions.It's like the original but HYPED UP! So many unique and charming interactions, the star system for classifying types of behaviours in the photos is genius. Seriously, if you liked the original, you will love this! If you've never played the original and you're not sure if you'll like this - if you're a fan of looking at creatures in their natural habitat or interacting in a natural way, you'll get something out of this game! I've laughed a few times too because some of the interactions I've seen so far are so silly and fun.In my opinion, the incentives of discovering new secret interactions or new pathways to take will keep me coming back until I've sifted through every last bit of content this game has to offer!It's gorgeous and a must have for any Pokemon fan who's been let down by Gamefreak's treatment of Pokemon as a franchise and was hungry for some more Pokemon-centric content with an emphasis on Pokemon behaviour and daily life. It's everything I ever wanted in a Snap sequel, a real dream come true!!Edit | The game has had time to settle in, and with now more than 50 hours clocked, I can assure you that this is one of the most enjoyable Pokemon experiences of my life. The level design is very nicely done, making you need to think to get certain rare Pokemon interactions to fill out your photodex. Every time a new Pokemon shows up, or I get a crazy interaction I didn't expect, I'm overjoyed and feel like a kid again. The amount of discovery in this game is thrilling. Seeing Pokemon interact in their natural environment, especially interactions caused by your interaction are just a pleasure through and through. If you can get into the gameplay, which I sincerely hope you can, the game is just incredible. I do have some minor gripes about the gameplay when it comes to interacting with Illumina Pokemon, as I find their gameplay much less engaging than the puzzle-game styled gameplay of the majority of the time, but the pictures you can snap are still worth it since the Illumina Pokemon are all so majestic. The photo editing is really fun, and the online compenents are satisfying and, in my opinion, make uploading your best photos worth it! I really enjoy custom tailoring my profile to have a mix of artistic photos as well as comical ones. I hope you will play this game!!!!
