What I'm Playin: Mobile Games Part 2: Pokemon Quest

Hey welcome to part 2 of my What I'm Playin Mobile Games Blog. Today I will be reviewing the mobile game Pokemon Quest.

Pokemon Quest is a game where you set your pokemon out into the wild to battle wave after wave of pokemon in real time. Then with the berries that enemy pokemon drop you cook food that will attract pokemon to your base. Once that is done all you need to do is tap on the wild pokemon and there you have it. You have successfully recruited pokemon to your team.

The gameplay is simple. When your pokemon are out there battling they move on their own but you get to decide when they attack and what move they use. Although i would have liked to be in control of the pokemon's movement its not a deal breaker.

The graphics are interesting. Both the pokemon and the environments have a minecraft look to it.

Pokemon Quest is a mobile game worth checking out. its a fun unique pokemon game that is free to play.Thats right. You can play through the entire game without the need of purchasing anything.

Stay tuned to part 3 of What I'm Playin to check out what im playin.

What I'm Playin: Mobile Games Part 1: Mekorama

Hey so I thought it would be a fun idea to talk about the games ive been playing on my phone. The first one i'll be talking about/reviewing is going to be Mekorama.

Mekorama is a puzzle game where you try to get your little person from point A to point B. Sounds simple right? Well if you take into account moving blocks and red people that stand in your way its not so simple. So far I am loving this game. There are 50 levels to tackle and each one is challenging in its own way. Another thing to point out is that this game is playable offline. Plus there is the option to make your own level. Lastly the look of this game is cool. it has a block like minecraft look to it.

I would definitely recommend this game (which can be downloaded from the Google Play Store for free). Keep an eye out for Part 2 of this blog post where i will be reviewing another mobile game I've been playing.

Well its on to the next...

Spiderman Into The Spiderverse Review

So I just watched Spiderman Into The Spiderverse and it was awesome. Im gonna break it down to visuals and story for this review.

the visuals in this movie were great. it was similar to watching a comic book come alive. some scenes used speech bubbles while other scenes used story panels. it reminded me of the game ultimate spiderman for the ps2. although they used this technique only a few times it was enough to make the movie enjoyable.

the story was also great. kingpin has created an interdemensional machine and has successfully killed spiderman. using this machine has accidentaly transported different versions of spiderman to his world. it is up to miles morales (the newly bitten spiderman) and the other spideys to destroy the machine.

This was a really great movie and i thoroughly enjoyed it.

Well its on to the next...

Professor Layton

When it comes to video games it doesnt matter if its old or new. If its a good game its a good game. Thats my motto.

Professor Layton isnt a new game series but I recently beat Professor Layton and the diabolical box for the DS and it was a GOOD game. I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you dont know about Professor Layton games its simple enough to understand. you play as a detective/archaeologist (Layton) who solves mysteries. The gameplay revolves around puzzles and brain teasers that you need to solve that are based on the mystery. I was surprised at the number of puzzles the games give you to solve. Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box gives you a total of 138 puzzles to solve through out the story. and on top of that the game gives you 3 mini games. 

An insane amount of puzzles plus 3 mini games is the basic format for all of the games in the series. thats what drew me into getting a professor layton game, even if it was a DS game. An old but great game.

And so as always its on to the next...

Sonic Movie First Impression

Ok so the trailer for the sonic the hedgehog live action movie was just released and I am not a happy camper.

So let me start off by saying i get it its a live action movie. everything has to look realistic. But the way sonic looks in this live action movie sucks. And why do we need live action movies for every little thing? i think it would have been better if it was animated. Since its not animated and it is live action things needed to be changed. how Sonic looks though...it just looks bad.

All is not lost though because the movie does incorporate the Rings. jim carry plays dr.eggman and he really looks like him...atleast for part of the movie. and the way sonic runs looks really cool. i hope that they include the chaos emeralds too.

Well on to the next...

Hello 2019!!! Hello Games!!!

Hey guys i know you havent heard from me in a while but thats only because I took a little break from blogging. Now that it is the beginning of 2019 I hope this new year will motivate me to continue to blog again. 

With that being said i hope you had a great christmas and new years. I got two gamestop gift cards for christmas which i used to buy Spyro The Reignited Trilogy and Ni No Kuni 2. 

Playing The Spyro Trilogy definitly brought me back to my childhood. My niece and I would always play spyro whether it was on the playstation or gameboy advance. Spyro on the PS4 looks amazing. the graphics in this game is top notch. The gameplay is just like it was when spyro was first released. which is a good thing. Its very nostalgic playing a level you remember playing years ago but now with enhanced graphics. 

Ok so the other game i bought was Ni No Kuni 2: Revanent Kingdom. To be honest when i first saw this game I was disappointed to learn that there would be no monster collecting. That was the best part of the first Ni No Kuni game! But I gave it a chance. And to my surprise its actually not that bad. In Ni No Kuni 2 the battles are now in real time. Also as you progress through the game you get to build your own kingdom.

Im looking foreword to continuing to blog. On to the next...
