Aside for all of the server issues, which will make any gamer rage, Pokemon Go is a lot of fun (Well, minus the walking if you don't really like walking regardless)

When the game first came out, I was shocked that it came out so soon, because I wasn't expecting it to come out for another couple of weeks but my friend told me that it was out and I downloaded it right away and was hit with a bunch of problems. First, internet problems turned out to make the game fairly unplayable but after the first day that wad fixed and I was able to play the game for a few days before the server crashes made the game unplayable for almost a whole week for me, but once the majority of the problems were fixed, the gam had been a lot of fun, even getting me to go out to places I normally don't spend a lot of time at, and spending 4 to 6 hours there.

GRAPHICS: 6/10

The graphics are very simple, they aren't all that great because all it is really is a map, and unless you have top notch internet on your phone, there will be times where even the map is a bit messed up. Aside for the map, there are the designs of the Pokemon as well as the backgrounds of battles if you chose to turn off AR, and if you choose to have AR on, then the graphics are top notch because you get to see the Pokemon that you are battling through your phones camera to make it seem like the Pokemon is really there. However if you really want to use the AR, you need some really good internet and your battery will be gone in under an hour.

SOUND: 8/10

I really like the sound, especially when it comes to the music. The music that plays throughout the game sounds just like any other Pokemon game, yet at the same time, it sounds so different and I really like it, like you're listening to the music of a whole new main game. Then you also have the regular sounds of the game, which are also pretty good such as he Pokemon cries.

ADDICTIVENESS: 9/10

The game is a lot of fun. Sure, maybe if you live in the middle of nowhere, you won't be able to see many Pokemon, but that's the point, it's a real life RPG/MMORPG, you are actually living the adventure and you're going on a real journey of your own to catch all of the Pokemon. Plus you have the normal training aspect of Pokemon, once you get enough of the same Pokemon, you get to train them and battle gyms.

STORY: N/A

Right now there isn't much of a story, all you have to do is catch pokemon, hatch eggs, train them, and battle gyms. I guess the only real end game right now would be to catch all of the available pokemon in your region, like how there's 142 right now in America, but that doesn't make much of a story.

DEPTH: 8/10

The game has a ton of depth because of the whole finding Pokemon in different places aspect. In most Pokemon games, you are given a massive region, but the region used in this game is literally thousands of times bigger being that nearly the entire world is explorable. Just catching all the Pokemon that is in your region is a lot of work, but beyond that, the game of hatching Pokemon, battling gyms, and training adds so much more, and supposedly there's also supposed to be regular battling and even trading later on.

DIFFICULTY: 8

Yes, the game is hard, unless you cheat, or travel A LOT, you aren't going to get very far. Just look at Magikarp, in order to evolve one into a Gyrados without hatching any or finding a Gyrados, you need to catch 101 Magikarps. Then once you evolved to a Gyrados, you need to catch even more Magikarps to level it up. Just leveling up is hard enough because of the amount of stuff you need to level up. There are candies for each Pokemon, every time you catch a Pokemon you get 3 for that evolution line and you can transfer that Pokemon to get a 4th. Every time you catch a Pokemon, you also get 100 Stardust. You need both Stardust and Candies to level up, and you need a lot of them, because there are some Pokemon where if they are strong enough, you need more than 2,000 Stardust and 2 to 3 candies to level them up and their Combat Power won't even go up by all that much. Beyond that, battling and then defending gyms, is hard enough as well.

OVERALL: 8/10

The game is a lot of fun. Sure, some people might only be able to play for a little bit each day, but even those who can only catch a few a day will be having a good amount of fun, and the people who can spend hours a day racking of KM and catching all different sorts of Pokemon will be getting the full experience and will be having the time of their lives. If the game didn't take up so much battery, and if the glitch that tells you how far away Pokemon are wasn't so messed up, the game would have been so much more fun, but it's still a lot of fun as it is and my overall grade for Pokemon Go is going to be a solid 8 out of 10.
