Top game producer

The first day of 《Pokémon》's release.

Amusement Park · Editorial Department.

Black Cat poured himself a cup of coffee as usual and started his day's work.

Today, the review of 《Pokémon》 is the main event. Not only him, but ten editors will participate in the 《Pokémon》 review.

This lineup is extremely rare even in Amusement Park. Generally, only highly anticipated masterpieces receive this treatment!

Everyone is very curious, what is 《Pokémon》 like? Is it fun or not?

Black Cat clicked on the Poké Ball icon of 《Pokémon》, and the ancient sword logo of Dragon Abyss appeared, his expression a little serious.

He also had some worries about Wang Jian in his heart. Since his debut, he has been smooth sailing, and the sales of each game have been very good. As a result, he "arrogantly" chose to challenge the handheld console, the curse of the Chinese game industry.

What if he falls hard? Will this genius producer be discouraged from then on?

Dragon Abyss, can it continue to create miracles?

On the screen, the kind and wise Professor Oak appeared: "Hello, nice to meet you! Welcome to the world of Pokémon!"

Elf, Pokémon?

Professor Oak threw a Poké Ball in his hand, and a Pokémon appeared immediately, lying at his feet, looking docile and submissive.

"The setting that Pokémon can be stored in Poké Balls is very novel and great." 《Pokémon》's GG is extremely popular, and Black Cat naturally knows something about it, so he wasn't too surprised to see this scene, and nodded slightly.

In the past, pets in games were directly stored in space. Although 《Pokémon》 only added a Poké Ball, it faintly revealed that the Pokémon part of the game has a self-consistent world system, which immediately distinguishes it from other games.

After the novice guide ended, Black Cat controlled the protagonist to come out of the house, wandered around the town, and admired the scenery for a while.

"The pixel-style graphics are a bit simple, probably due to the limitations of the handheld console's performance and development cycle costs. The pixel style doesn't add extra points to the theme of 《Pokémon》, but it's not too old-fashioned. Some details have been added, so it looks relatively comfortable. If it could be made in 3D with more exquisite graphics, the game quality would be greatly improved."

Black Cat quickly made a judgment.

"The game's music is a plus, exuding the unique charm of low-bit electronic sounds. The music in various environments sets the atmosphere very well."

Black Cat nodded secretly to the game's music level.

After all, the music level of any of Dragon Abyss's previous works was not bad, and 《To the Moon》 even won the Best Music Award at the Shenlong Awards.

"However, these are secondary and cannot be used as the main criteria for evaluating this game."

Black Cat was soon pulled to the research institute by Professor Oak.

"Choose a Pokémon?"

Black Cat hesitated between Charizard, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur, and finally chose the most peculiar-looking Bulbasaur.

He also had some curiosity in his heart. After all, he had never seen a turtle carrying a head of garlic.

Next, the rival also chose a Pokémon.

Black Cat guessed: "Next, it should be a battle, right?"

Sure enough, the rival stopped the protagonist and demanded a thrilling battle.

In the oppressive and passionate BGM, the protagonist threw out the Poké Ball on the screen and shouted, "Bulbasaur, I choose you!"

Black Cat's eyes widened.

This! It's actually a battle between Pokémon!

Humans don't take action at all!

This novel setting made his mood inexplicably excited.

In previous games, pets were used as human assistants.

But in 《Pokémon》, it seems that they are the real protagonists?

It's too颠覆了!

And the presence of humans has not been weakened, but as trainers, considering strategies and commanding Pokémon to use skills!

The sense of immersion is full!

Humans and elves can be so harmoniously combined through this kind of gameplay!

"This game will at least not sell too badly!"

Black Cat had a little confidence in his heart and made a simple prediction.

After defeating the rival, the protagonist also walked out of Pallet Town.

In the grass on Route 1, he ran into Pidgey and Rattata one after another.

And this way of encountering monsters also gave him a little unexpected surprise.

"Walking in the knee-deep dense grass, the grass leaves are constantly turning, and wild Pokémon may jump out at any time. This feeling of curiosity about the unknown and the tension of adventure coexist, satisfying people's desire for exploration unconsciously."

After obtaining the package from the clerk in Viridian City, he took the package back to Professor Oak, who gave him a Pokédex and Poké Balls as a reward.

Black Cat couldn't wait to rush to Route 1 and caught several Rattata and Pidgey in one breath.

"The gap between different Pokémon is very large, and there seem to be differences in attributes and skills between the same Pokémon. What does personality affect?"

He carefully compared the newly caught Pokémon and added the two that he thought were the best to the team.

"Huh?" Black Cat suddenly froze.

The Poké Balls given by Professor Oak have all been used up?

"Why did I use them up so quickly? It seems I have to go to the store to buy a few more."

The process of capturing Pokémon seems ordinary, but it is full of fun, making people invest in it unconsciously.

This kind of fun cannot be experienced without playing it yourself.

Black Cat couldn't help but smile, recalling a midsummer of his childhood, going to his mother's work unit park, braving the sky of sunshine, and catching grasshoppers and butterflies in the grass.

"This is the desire to collect that exists in everyone's nature! Many games have collecting elements, and Wang Jian has cleverly and silently stimulated players' desire to collect through Pokémon's complete world view, this way of finding and capturing, and the Pokédex waiting to be filled."

The evaluation of 《Pokémon》 has also been silently raised to another level.

Simple gameplay, simple fun!

Half an hour later.

"Bulbasaur, use Vine Whip!"

The opposing Onix slowly fell down, and Black Cat also won the battle against the rock gym leader Brock.

"Phew!" Black Cat's heart beat a little faster. Fighting against strong enemies is exciting.

However, the screen did not return to the map, but the figure of Bulbasaur appeared.

In Black Cat's shocked eyes, white light spots swirled around Bulbasaur, and the screen glowed brightly! And Bulbasaur's figure seemed to have changed!

"Congratulations, Bulbasaur evolved into Ivysaur!"

The garlic on Bulbasaur's back opened into extending leaves and pink flower buds, grew small fangs, and his eyes became more calm.

"Evolution!"

Black Cat shuddered, and goosebumps rose all over his body.

The finishing touch!

Exploring the grass, sweating, going to the Pokémon Center to receive treatment.

Battles with various wild Pokémon on the roadside, battles with bug catchers, battles with rock gym leader Brock.

All kinds of scenes flowed through his mind.

At this moment, the previous hard work converged into the brilliance of evolution on Bulbasaur's body.

The world focuses on you!

This is the Pokémon I have cultivated! A strong sense of pride and accomplishment instantly surged into my heart!

Black Cat calmed down his excited mood: "Wonderful, this evolution setting is really wonderful."

Although he only played for an hour, he already had a decision on the quality of the game.

"Those who are not optimistic about 《Pokémon》 will be slapped in the face this time!"
