Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Hopefully the dev will continue adding some new mons and do a little bit of balancing on the mechanics to increase the replayability, because this game is solid gold.

Despite the art style looking like a parody, it's actually a really fun game with a lot of replayability.

So much fun, the ramping difficulty levels add additional challenge to each run as you try more strats.

I really love this game most automated combat games feel so mindless were the only thing that’s happening as you’re watching numbers go up nearly every time I’ve played one I’ve absolutely regretted it and felt like it was a waste of time but this game is flipping fantastic there is so much potential strategy in team conversation The order in which they placed on the team trying to balance types of specialise in one different creatures with really interesting abilities trying to make sure you’re focusing on creatures that can be found in a similar habitat so you have increased Chance of being able to catch a team you want an upgrade it whether to pick gym badges or not this game is Is like a Pokémon was entirely focused around building your team and the strategy in that Rather than focusing on combat encounters and a great part of it is you can radically speed up the automated combat most automated games for basic things take forever but you can get as in and out as fast as possible to get back to tweaking your team there was obviously a lot of care and attention in crafting this combat system and despite all the Pokémon parallels it’s a very unique game I can’t recommend it enough especially if you’re interested in unusual game design
