User reviews

Still no field rework for people who can’t travel

It would be nice if there was a way to read the field reports. Yes, it’s a cute idea to do a whole Pokémon Go thing, but there’s a literal pandemic going on so I can’t just walk around other countries to pick up parts of the story. If you force your users to pay for the whole story, we should get the whole story. You could be inventive and make people walk a certain number of steps or something to get the story :( unfortunately this is still an app for rich people all these years later

Great story, solid idea

The story is really well written though it perhaps loses steam in the end. The user submitted stories is a great idea though it's a shame that more people haven't participated.
