Pokemon Liquid Crystal (beta 3.2) Review by: mscoral - 9.8/10
review of pokemon liquid crystalPokemon Liquid Crystal is a hack of the original Pokemon Crystal. However, here is my review for this game.
Overall: I give the overall a 9.8. This game is great. Even though it is a hack of Pokemon Crystal, there really is no difference except for the graphics, and slightly higher level Pokemon in the beginning. The graphics make it more fun to play, at least for me, because everything is in such a more clear picture then the original Pokemon series.
Graphics: The graphics in this I gave a 9 out of 10. The graphics are beautifully drawn, and makes it quite enjoyable to play the game. The Poke-center, instead of being fuzzy and not well drawn, is more clear in this game. The Pokemon are also drawn really well. The details are amazing when you are battling your opponent. The main character you pick (whether a boy or girl), is very well done. The editor added a couple more details to the character, but it makes it more enjoyable to look at, besides being unclear and fuzzy like in the previous Pokemon games.
Sound: I give the sound a 10 out of 10. I haven't even heard it skip a track when I am walking around, or battling a Pokemon. The noise is very clear, and precise. The sound is wonderful, and makes the Pokemon battles interesting and fun to listen to. Some people aren't big into the sound and music of the games, but if you are interested in the sound, this game is fantastic for you to listen to.
Addictivness: I give it a 10 out of 10. I know some people aren't huge fans of Pokemon, however, this game is very very addicting. It is just like Pokemon Crystal, for the story line at least. You meet a few new people throughout the game, but in general its very similar to Pokemon Crystal. You train, battle gym leaders, and complete the story line.
Story: I give this an 8 out of 10. The story isn't all the unique, but yet it is still interesting. Of course, its similar to all the other Pokemon games, with a little of variations here and there. If you are a general fan of Pokemon, the lack of the story line wont really affect you that much. To me, its basically the same as any other Pokemon game, yet for some reason this is my favorite game out of the whole Pokemon series. In the beginning, a red haired boy steals a Pokemon, and then he battles you when he sees you every so often. Then you go to every town, and usually you have to complete a quest in that town to advance to the next. Such as beating the first gym leader so you can use flash in the cave outside of the town. The quests make it interesting to play the game.
Depth: I give this an 8 out of 10. It has a good number of different quests from the other Pokemon games. The characters are very interesting to get to know. Every gym leader is different in their personality, and so are the trainers. You also get to battle team rocket grunts, and usually they are all very cocky by thinking you are a "weak" trainer.You meet new people and make friends throughout your journey, which is always fun.
Difficulty: Last but not least, I give this a 6 out of 10. The reason why this is the lowest score out of my whole review is because its not too hard to beat. The Pokemon in the beginning are a little of a higher level then usual, yet it seems like your Pokemon level faster then usual, so it makes it a little bit easier to beat. The gym leaders are also lacking in powerful moves. Don't get me wrong, they are still very strong, but since your Pokemon levels faster, it makes it for a quicker battle, if you train enough. The trainers Pokemon are a little bit stronger as well, but in the beginning they usually use grass Pokemon, so if you choose Cyndaquil as your starter, or catch a Pidgey, it really isn't that difficult.
Thanks for reading!
