the game is pretty fun theres a bear, shark and a turtle for a starter. all very unique to its own. the pace of the game is slow. makes it harder to play but they have easier settings if you want to change that . which was great implament . they also have skins and a reward system if your intrested. theres no pay to get skins. so it gotta be earned. all in all its great price for the game. i bought on switch as well again. just so i can play on the go.

So far, of all of the pokemon-likes I've played, I think this one takes the cake for me. This one does everything so right, and feels very similar to the OG Pokemon games. And for $4.... good Lord every OG Pokemon fan should pick this up

Coromon is a fun time for the most part, but it has some elements that can be annoying at best and infuriating at worst.
I am writing this review as of version 1.4.0. I have played this game once before in 2023 and dropped it a little less than halfway through after burning myself out on it. I have now completed the game on normal and grabbed a large number of achievements.
Pros:
- Excellent pixel art that rivals and even outdoes the best of what Pokemon has to offer
- Monster designs are almost all great. I found myself struggling to pick just six to use for my team. The game had exactly one monster design that I did not like at all.
- Lots of difficulty and customization options. You can make battles and overworld movement go at turbo speed if you want!
- Every monster feels like it can do something useful if you know how to use it.
- The difficulty I played on (normal) felt well balanced and generally challenging enough to keep me engaged with the combat system the whole time
- There are actual reasons you may want to leave your coromon unevolved, creating more teambuilding choices
- Every coromon has two 'shiny' forms with one of those forms being somewhat common
- There are skins for your coromon that can be unlocked by completing challenges.
- Coromon are spaced out very well. Every new area has at least one new coromon for you to find
- There are some simple, but fun minigames to waste time with
- Most puzzle dungeons are satisfying to solve. There was a puzzle in the pyramid dungeon I really enjoyed.
- Swurmy
Cons:
- The music was mostly forgettable
- The last two areas of the game do not have any battle researcher (trainer) battles and are strictly puzzle areas with some wild encounters. I did not enjoy that last two major areas of this game.
- Ice sliding puzzles are horribly overused in the last stretch of gameplay. All three of the final dungeons have ice sliding puzzles. They aren't particularly hard, but they are also not particularly fun
- There are two stealth sections that felt clunky and frustrating to play
- The story is only alright, and the ending comes way too quickly
- The only postgame content is a battle tower style mode that gives almost nothing for rewards. The developers have indicated they are looking to improve the rewards with a later patch.
Your enjoyment of Coromon will come down to two things:
1. How much you enjoy Pokemon style combat and exploration
2. How much you enjoy Pokemon style overworld puzzles
I bounced off of Coromon a few years ago, but I had a great time this year when I picked it up again and started a new file. If it weren't for the annoying puzzles and lack of late-game battles, I would have almost zero complaints!

This is a great game. It has great gameplay and an interesting progression in game mechanics.
The game has been out for a while and many quality of life improvements has been made. I got in late and I get to enjoy the game's most perfect state.
The only annoying thing is the potential gimmick. I'd prefer a distinct two tiers in potential, not a two tier and a nonexistent third. Nonetheless, this is something that can be easily ignored.

Coromon is a fun and charming game for fans of monster-taming. The creature designs are excellent – each Coromon feels unique and well crafted, which makes collecting them very enjoyable. On the other hand, the story is rather average and doesn’t stand out much. The overall difficulty sits around easy to medium, so it’s accessible for newcomers but may feel a bit light for players seeking a real challenge. I’d love to see the developers expand the roster with more dual-type Coromon, as well as the addition of Legendary or Mythical Coromon. This would greatly increase team-building options and add more depth to the gameplay. I think with those improvements, Coromon could reach an even higher level of replayability.

Previously they had a system where you could do daily quests to get skins for creatures & and your character. I spent the last year+ logging in every day to complete these quests, and was planning on buying all the skins I wanted all at once very soon. Buuut...they released an update that wiped everyone's acquired gems to completely revamp how you acquire them. So...I farmed all that for absolutely nothing. Did they give us a warning about wiping our gems? Nope! Screw you guys.

Pretty easy 100% for achievements, just save and reset if a coromon dies, and I personally just used the water starter for the hardest difficulty and just had them over leveled the whole game.

Lemme guess, you came here because you love/loved Pokémon and you stumbled upon this game.
Well, let me tell you that it is not going to be the same experience that you had with old Pokémon games, the games don't revolve around gym badges but some boss fights (I will not continue to say what it has to offer, cause it will be a spoiler).
I finished today the base game, and I must say it was a blast, the graphics were amazing, the storytelling was interesting and filled with funny jokes. But most importantly, the Coromon design was perfect.
I recommend you give it a try if you interacted with the Pokémon world, and even if you didn't interact with it, but have a connection to 2d catching games, try it anyway, you will be surprised!!

kinda wish i could give this game a like in the middle. I do like the game and i'm on my way to the end of the game at this point. But man the constant crashing randomly, for seemingly no reason...just gets to a point. I've had the game freeze completely and then crash, the graphics distorting. and random other glitches. It seems other have had it. But maybe its my pc i dunno. But this is the only game i've had so many crashes with T.T
