Player Reviews

It's some sort of retirement sanctuary for growtopians who want to avoid bullies and communities are non toxic, and staff are really hands on.

I love the game! It has alot of things to do-such as Scour Mission, breed pokemon, evolve pokemon, collect eggs and hatch them, and more! I just started, and I'm not bored of it yet ( I'm NOT saying im gonna get bored). Buttttt, I still love it!! I'm pretty addicted to it, so, yeah...

As someone who played on PF1 and now 4-5 years here, I can say this site has greatly improved. Although I do miss some things, like being able to send out more than 3 scours, it’s something I can dismiss when I look at other features we’re given like albino and melan hunting. The smoothness of the site on laptops and mobile is one of my favorite things. This game is a great way to pass the time, (maybe I should say years.) It’s a great game with great staff. I don’t think I would be playing and spending money on it for 5 years if it wasn’t. With the speed of updates, events like MCW or the tourneys, you can never get bored here.

Yes.

This game is so good!

It'sl a simple easy game to play though. You click eggs and pokemon, fill your pokedex, find items, and so on. While it's fun to play at first, after a while it becomes a bit repetitive. I believe the game needs a bit more to do in it. A lot of the sites features require a lot of different currency that is rather difficult to get unless you buy it or spend most of your time on here. While it's not necessarily a bad thing, it definitely makes tasks like shiny/albino/etc hunting a bit harder for casual players. Maybe implement some minor aspects to the game that don't really give much, but provides something to do other than click eggs or try to barter on forums? Or maybe instead of having three different in-game currencies just have credits and gold poke? Other than that I feel like PFQ is a good change from PF1. I miss the simplicity of PF1, but PFQ is more fleshed out and offers more to the player. The game is still a good way to pass the time, and I hope to see more in the future!

Addictive, easy to play.

One of the major complaints I see about this game is the staff. As someone who played PF1 when I was younger, and who had run-ins with staff and was around for all that hullabaloo, you guys aren't giving them a fair shake. It is the staff's job to support Niet's decisions and, in turn, support him and keep the site running smoothly. Niet has come SO FAR in the whole PR department since PF1; he's doing well enough that I had to write my own review contradicting the staff complaints I've seen. He's improved; he will only continue to improve. The staff gets an A from me - some room for improvement, perhaps, but they've already come far enough to get a passing grade. As for the actual game, my perspective may be a bit skewed. Full disclosure: I am an adult, with time on my hands and money I am willing to spend on this game, and have. I have never tried this game without spending money, because that's just how I prefer to play the game, as well as wanting to support it. However, I have had a wonderful experience so far. Doing hunts is just what I enjoy doing, and it's a very enjoyable part of this game. So, what don't I like? There are some things I wish the site would improve on, which are the following: -Delta Pokemon: Increase odds of delta specials, increase delta points earned from trading in shinies, visually add something to Pokemon of each delta type, SOMETHING. I love the thought of delta Pokemon - I am hoping one day to obtain a Fairy type albino Ardik, but the effort in obtaining them is too much compared to their value. There is nothing special about them - nothing that gives them value in the market for how hard they are to obtain. When buying the shinies required to trade in for even a 100 egg hunt would cost in the millions of Cr, and no user wants to buy the results, it's a letdown. If points were adjusted OR something visually was added (even if it was just replacing one of the sprite's colors with orange for fire, for example, something THAT simple), I would be way more happy with this feature. -Breeding Exclusives: Breeding old exclusives should not be as difficult as it is. Even dropping it by a fraction each season after their release (starting from 1/8, 1/7 the next season, etc) would help so much. It may just be me, as an Ardik enthusiast, but the fact that I would probably average 1 egg per 6,400 clicks with a high-percentage pair is frankly ridiculous for Pokemon that aren't even from this or the last season. The Red Gigaremo drops happiness by too much to make it of any use for exclusives, either, because the happiness drops so quickly. I am currently saving GP for a future long Ardik hunt because daycare'ing exclusives is unbearable. I can't imagine how it would be for people who don't average 20k+ clicks a day. Still, if I were to pay real life money for enough GP for 100 Ardik eggs (8,400), even just that few, it would come out to more than $79 USD. I realize it's not the only way to obtain GP, but just for the sake of argument. -Community Events: The community goal for the type race is currently set too high. We came close - 98% - in January, and that's a month and time when a LOT of people were off the first half of the month to begin with. What's it going to be like in, say, March or April, when everyone is in the dead of school? It's only ONE z-crystal. It should at least be doable in the off-months, not JUST months when school isn't in session... even then, in December and January, it WASN'T doable. Those are my main complaints about this game. Otherwise, it has been a treat. I really do enjoy this game, don't get me wrong. Exclusive Pokemon are meant to be hard to get, community events too, but I just feel that they could be heavily improved on. By the time you read this review, Niet may have already tweaked something, though. We get CONSTANT high-quality updates and Niet is more active than perhaps any site owner I've ever seen. Props to him. I was considering giving four stars instead of five, but really the game as-is deserves five stars from me. I'm here all the time; I play it far more than my money's worth, and enjoy every second of it. My personal preferences on delta Pokemon/exclusive breeding/community goals aren't something that will be shared by everyone, so it's not a knock against the site. Give it a try, but be warned - you might have more fun than intended.

it is the best game ever everyone needs to play it

As a minor, this game can be extremely time consuming. Users who can't or won't spend real life currency have to spend a lot more lime selling and doing scour missions to earn game currency.
