Coromon improves on the Pokemon formula in terms of the small details. I will mention several items and aspects from Pokemon Red/Gold since Coromon is inspired by the popular franchise.

Music for each town/area livens up the mood. Ghost town is spooky and battles against bosses are exciting.


- Berries - Can grow specific fruits in pots and pick them when ready.
- Escape rope in caves/Fly- Lux Recall that lets you transport to any town
- Bike- Run and can change setting to turn on at all times
- Shiny- Potent is the equivalent. Potent scent to use and this increases chance of Potent Coromon appearance
- HM moves- Gauntlets with push rock, burn, etc that lets you use special moves outside of battle without the need to teach Coromon a weak attack
- 4 moves allowed in Pokemon only- Can enable or change 1 or all 4 moves before a battle
- Stats - Can choose which Stats like Attack or defense to increase when leveling
- Buying items - Can use coupons to decrease cost of buying items
- Difficulty - Several modes and harder modes for players that want a tougher experience


Main aspects missing are gym battles, no rival, no Elite 4, and no breeding. Some minor weaknesses are below.

- Puzzles that are somewhat tedious and involve collecting items, timing a jump, and stealth.
- The need to level up Coromon to defeat last boss. It is level 70 and yours are around mid 50s or low 60s by that point of the game.
- Few achievements require multiple playthroughs.
- Antagonist do not present a challenge. They throw some Coromon battles at you, but it does not add to the story.

This game is enjoyable for Pokemon fans, contains atmospheric soundtrack, and is a worthy successor to Pokemon. The developers continue to make updates and show a devotion to improving the game.
