Full of colors and names are on point well ### 5/5 — Review *2023-09-27* So far the graphics look pretty good, haven't gotten to play much yet. So far it is very reminiscent of my childhood playing Pokémon on my game boy. I plan on continuing to play for free without purchasing in game advertisements. ### 5/5 — Glad I downloaded it *2023-09-26* Let’s give it a go at first I was skeptical, but it’s turned out to be a great game with a great evolution system. I love the way you can assemble a group of Pokémon and how true it stays to its roots. I love it am having a great time !! ### 5/5 — Awesome game to pass the time *2023-09-26* It’s a great game to pas the time while waiting for anything. Plus the game is relatively easy to progress without having to pay. Recommended to everyone. ### 5/5 — Love the game *2023-09-26* I have always loved Pokémon grew up playing it and then went away from it but saw this game brought back many memories and alot of fun. Game runs very well and fluid and alot of things you can do ### 5/5 — Meh good enough *2023-09-26* It’s a Pokémon ripoff, but interesting mechanics. Too many game elements honestly to get used to, but nothing is required. Not a bad way to spend time, if a little boring. Wish some instructions for areas were clearer or easier to navigate ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-09-26* The game in the beginning is amazing haven’t really played long but the time I have played it has been wonderful. Full of colors and names are on point well ### 5/5 — Positive review for idle legend *2023-09-25* Love the game takes me back to the old days when Pokémon blue and red came out. I like way you evolve Pokémon there’s no wait time you just collect and evolve. It’s also a great time passer ### 5/5 — Good game so far! *2023-09-25* It’s really fast learning process, but seems like it has potential and I hope it’s not a pay to play type of game. ### 5/5 — Nice game. *2023-09-25* Like the game so far. It’s fun and a lot to do. From the start. Can get lots of draws and improve quick. Can get lots of diamonds to without buying anything. ### 5/5 — Please fix *2023-09-24* I keep having to click on the present to give a review to get the present off my screen. On top of that it’s not giving me the rewards when I give the review. I’ve given multiple. Otherwise amazing game I love it. Haven’t put it down since I downloaded it ### 5/5 — Best game *2023-09-24* Always was a fan of pokemon and am happy to be able to play a game where i can progress while also being idle. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Black screen and sus *2023-10-10* There wasn’t an update to my knowledge but this app just fades gov a black screen after a week of playing it. Uninstalled it and reinstalled it . No luck. Getting the feeling this was all an elaborate scam to steal peoples money and data considering the pictures and ads don’t reflect gameplay. Hilariously enough it’s quite solid for an idle game even if the p2w aspects are fairly egregious. A couple of the launch events specifically are time gated and without paying to push your teams up you won’t be finished the events while other will keep going passive power. In fact 90% of the events and rewards revolve around who spends the most money. Again though it’s pretty solid on the f2p or minimal spenders side as long as you don’t care. Just… why does it randomly fade to a black screen now???????? I’ll pop my review back up to a better rating to reflect my thoughts if that gets fixed ### 1/5 — Lost Account i spent money on! *2023-09-04* I can’t even contact customer support ### 2/5 — So much going on *2023-10-07* The ui is very all over the place, there’s a billion things going on on the screen at any given moment. You can’t actually control any part of your Pokemon even if you wanted to not do an idle battle. I cannot stress enough how much stuff there is going on in every single nook and cranny. Menus in menus in menus asking you to purchase purchase purchase. ### 3/5 — Good game but *2023-09-30* Great game but the layout is a little glitchy and crowded. Hard to navigate with so many layers on the screen. If you change servers it resets my game, which is super annoying. Sometimes when I open the app the game doesn’t even start. Could be better. ### 3/5 — Game won’t launch *2023-08-12* Game stopped launching it would have been a 5 star I enjoyed it ### 4/5 — Fun game *2023-10-06* Pretty fun. Sometimes you hit a wall and it’s hard to move on. But you get one more evolution and it’s smooth sailing again. Really don’t have to pay to win. Would have given 5 stars, but the power level is confusing at times. For example, my main 6 have a power level of ~28 million. But somehow I still lose to someone with only ~22 million. Doesn’t make since and irritates me on the ranked ladder. ### 4/5 — The write a review gift in way *2023-09-29* I just downloaded the game, so far so good. However there’s a glitch that is placing the “write a review” gift button on the screen at all times and it won’t go away. It’s currently preventing me from hitting certain buttons in game! ### 4/5 — Great fun! *2023-09-18* Really enjoying the short time I’ve been playing! Easy to level up and progress. Can’t wait to continue playing! Cool game! ### 4/5 — My opinion *2023-09-15* Games great overall , but slight handfuls of bugs need to be fixed can’t afford to buy something and lose it from my account without me dismantling the item! ### 4/5 — Idle Legend: Monster Evolution *2023-09-13* Great RPG Pokémon game. First time I played a Pokémon game to where it doesn’t cost a bunch of resources in order to Evolve your Pokémon. Smooth graphics with a load of Legendary Pokémon and overall a fantastic game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-10-11* Love it I can’t recommend it enough, you hit a wall every now and then but you do eventually get through it. And some times the game has trouble launching. ### 5/5 — Good game *2023-10-09* These guys done a WONDERFUL job incorporating a pay to win into Pokémon! The game is SO great, that you HAVE to start paying after the first week, or you hit the ftp wall, and will find yourself unable to proceed further. Way to go! Way to make such a “great” pay to win game!! ### 5/5 — Pretty good *2023-10-09* Not as advertised (like everything is) and it’s nothing new, but it is designed well and easy to keep the pace up. Worth trying for anyone interested ### 5/5 — Stop asking me to do a review for mewtwo giveaway *2023-10-06* I’ve done the review a couple times now for the mewtwo giveaway, but it never works and it pops up every time I play the game and I can’t make it go away until click on it. Just get rid of it already. I don’t even care to have the mewtwo anymore ### 5/5 — Gotta catch ‘em all *2023-10-06* A very good game. I love idle rpgs and the fact that it’s Pokémon makes it even better. It’s not so much pay to win as other games and the draw rates for the ha ha are very fair. Very easy to get a decent team from the beginning. B ### 5/5 — Awesome *2023-10-06* Well rounded game to pass the time, gives you chances to get good team without spending money and helps you progress even when you're not playing ### 5/5 — Gotta catch ‘em all *2023-10-02* A very good game. I love idle rpgs and the fact that it’s Pokémon makes it even better. It’s not so much pay to win as other games and the draw rates for the ha ha are very fair. Very easy to get a decent team from the beginning. B ### 5/5 — Third day in and pretty fun. *2023-10-01* I’m third day in and its pretty fun. Its rare for me to get hooked on games, but i think its idle nature plus always having things to do on top of characters I’m familiar with is helping. One of 4 games I turn on every few hours for sure. ### 5/5 — Very interesting take *2023-10-01* Not going to lie. I was very skeptical about downloading this game. But after a few days a playing I actually kind of like it. It definitely helps pass the time. And if you like Pokémon, you’ll enjoy this little mobile game. ### 5/5 — Idle Legend: Monster Evolution *2023-09-30* The Game is great and nice to play without having to spend money to move forward. You can just let the game play in the backgrand level up quickly. The creators did a good job with the whole game. I really enjoy playing it --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
