What players think
The recurring themes across 26 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The art style, the dedication the dev has to the series (a sequel is in the works), the monster designs, the gameplay and the UI are all fantastic.
Having said that, the beautiful pixel artwork of EvoMon has to be commended as it definitely does do a good job at bringing the world to life here, all the little details that can be fitted into such little pixels can (and often have) be included to give this game's world of EvotoPia a refreshing palette of 'paint' as the most impressive of the graphics can easily be seen with the 40 creatures in total, each of their three stages adding up to a grand total of 120 as a whole, each of them being excellently-done as far as what 2D graphics can allow here!
Getting into the nitty-gritty side of things here, one aspect of EvoMon that should be made clear right off the bat is that it lacks the RPG mechanics seen in Monster Rancher and Digimon, instead focusing more on the exploration and non-combat side of things such as a Fishing minigame for early food gathering and a half-decent moneymaker early on alongside a focus on shopping and using the store's 'Gacha' machine for various furniture for your house and other goodies to boot, something that may be a disappointment to some, as it was to me, however it is more of a casual game to approach at that as a result.
