The Past Within 12+

Sarah Jane Oakland is an actual gremlin

1 started playing Pokemon Go again during lockdown (unfortunately I forgot my previous account so I had to start over) and it has been amazing! The game lets you figure out a lot of things yourself and basically just leaves you to get on with it which is great :) It also doesn't bombard you with tasks to complete (they have them but they are in no way compulsory to move on in the game) or random notifications like some other apps do, which is great. It also encourages you to get out of the house and find new Pokemon, and some of them are really cute. It was magikarp day a few days ago, and this was amazing, as you need to catch lots of magikarps to evolve them and power them up and they are usually quite hard to find (especially in London) in the wild. So overall this is an amazing game with barely any glitches, although like all apps they do happen sometimes. The most annoying one for me is when I use a remote raid pass (worth 100 coins) and then occasionally the app crashes and I lose my raid pass completely. I personally find it hard to collect coins and therefore it can take me a while to save up to buy a remote raid pass. However this has only happened a few times and it doesn't really bother me (I can see how it would bother someone else though, so if you see this I think this is definitely something worth fixing or at least giving the raid pass back :))

My mum is now a gamer

I’ve been a big fan of Rusty Lake for years now so I was so excited for this game to come out. I didn’t know it was going to be a two player thing but it works super well. I got my mum to play it with me and as I’m now at university and no longer living with her for most of the year, it was a wonderful long-distance activity for us to do together. She got so excited anytime a little hidden panel was revealed or a soul showed up. She’s never really played games before (certainly not one like this) but she’s said it’s opened her eyes to a whole new world and she’s wants me to “tell the Rusty Lake people that they’ve turned my mum into a gamer” so… thanks for that!

But seriously, you can tell how much effort went into this game and from a long time fan and now a new fan, we both give it 5 stars. Well done, team!

Brilliant

I played this with my wife and we both loved it! I’ve seen a few people complaining about the price. I think for the time and effort the team out into such a game, £2.50 is more than fair. Yes you will likely be done in 2-3 hours, but if I went to the cinema, I would pay a lot more than £2.50 for the same amount of time. If you go to an arcade nowadays it’s usually £1 for approximately 2 minutes of gameplay!
Anyway I thought it was an excellent game, really interesting concept and kept simple by the fact the two devices don’t need to be connected. This in itself clearly required a lot of thought to pull it off. Well done!

Awesome to hear you both enjoyed it so much! Thanks a lot for playing :)
